I stayed for almost 3 weeks at this hotel and had to buy many wifi cards because the time ran out so quickly due to dropped connections and the fact that they don't tell you that you have to completely sign off not only on the log off page but also on the wifi connection itself. This was a new... More

We stayed at the Urban in March 2012 and choose the hotel as it was an apartment hotel near the start of the Cape Argus Bike race. We were upgraded to a three bedroom suite. The accommodation includes a kitchen but has no internal laundry facility. There is a Laundrette in the building that charged R65 ( about $8.50) for... More

My business partner and I chose to stay at the Urban Hip Hotel on a recent business trip to Cape Town and will definitely be going back! The rooms were spacious and it was great to have some extra space in terms of the kitchenette and lounge. The location is very convenient and the value excellent –we payed the same... More

I recently spent three nights here. It was hard checking in as there was no place to park. I had to park in a lot in the back, then lug my bags over. This place isn't bad, and within walking distance to some great restaurants, downtown shopping and sites. Nice to see that Cape Town's CBD has become safer and... More

She sent us off on a wild goose chase to Georges' square (almost 400m off-course). Other than that everything else was good. Its a spaciuos hotel apartment,... More

I've just spent 5 days at the Icon in Cape town, with my wife and 3 kids, and it served our purpose very well. We wanted a place for having our own breakfast and light meals, and, having a rather large family, we prefer apartment arrangements to hotels rooms in order to have more flexibility and space. The 2 bedroom... More

The room is large, well equipped (really, there is a Flat TV with a Home Theather in the room), spacious and very comfortable. Staff is friendly and helpful. No restaurant or room service though. The pool is a bit... lame. But if you want a nice large apartment in the heart of Cape Town, you can't do better! PS: Not... More

We recently stayed for 4 days and it was a very good location. Approximately 15 - 20 minutes walk to the V & A. Rooms were very clear and spaceous. Would stay again.
