Some hotels get it right — and the AC Marriott is absolutely one of them. Across the globe, this brand delivers consistent quality with beautiful rooms and thoughtful amenities. But what truly stood out on this stay was the staff in Cape Town — exceptional in every way. Warm, professional, attentive… they elevated an already great experience into something memorable. Highly recommend.

Ok hotel. Location wasn’t the best. Very far from waterfront. It’s a good conference hotel, but I wouldn’t say it´s perfect for a family with 2 kids and 2 adults.

Pretty basic. Very business like hotel. It was pretty full and busy fo a small place so getting a breakfast table was a short wait. Great location with lots of exciting “V & A attractions” and a shuttle bus service provided.

6/10 Good

The hotel itself is clean, and the common areas are well maintained. One thing to keep in mind is that the location is quite remote — it’s not walkable to any nearby attractions or shops, so transportation is necessary to get around. Overall, it’s a nice property

Staff was judicious, helpful and friendly. It was clean and plenty of little niceties like iced tea in the lobby along with little sweet gelatin bits. (I don’t like them, but the gesture was good). When you asked for something for the room, it was delivered quickly.

Great location in Cape Town.

Reasonably safe location in Cape Town in waterfront area. Breakfast was delicious. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Hotel was relatively new. Staff were enthusiastic.
