I had booked for 3 nights and I didnt know what to expect after reading some of the reviews but I was happy enough with the Ritz. The room was fairly tired and need of refurbishment but clean, comfortable and roomy. It only cost £55 a night which is not bad but the bathroom was very poor. Behind the door... More

I read the 'mixed' reviews but decided to take an chance on staying at the Ritz anyway as I was struggling to find last-minute accommodation in Sea Point. If you are looking for budget accommodation (and can get a budget rate) and you have expectations of a two star establishment, then you should be satisfied. If not, you will probably... More

Disgusting! The place is full of cockroaches and rats and looks like it hasn't been cleaned since the 70's! We found the staff particularly rude, the facilities particularly poor and the rooms absolutely squalid. Our towels were dirty and the food made us extremely prone to food-poisoning. An absolute disgrace for Cape Town! More

pro: low price, good location cons: - unfriendly, unhelpful staff - awful breakfast selection - dirty, small and cramped rooms - spotty, slow internet would not stay here again! More

In my few days here, I have been scammed by reception and the bar, I have faced cockroaches they refuse to exterminate, I have been unable to change my room, and I have been unable to acquire an iron, towels, or internet. This hotel gave other hotel members a key to... More

the breakfast was five star. Location is good, but you need to hire a car if you want to go to waterfront...our room was not very nice, but price was cheap More

My friend and I booked to stay at the Ritz in Seapoint over the New Year period. When we arrived and were given our key we found that the room we were assigned was a smoking room on the 4th floor when we had specifically requested non-smoking for health reasons. The entire floor and the room completely wreaked of smoke.... More

Firstly the location of this hotel is not exactly central or safe. The hotel staff are disgustingly RUDE and completely UNHELPFUL. The corner room we stayed in was SMALL and absolutely DIRTY infested with COCROACHES. The pillows SMELLED like sweat and others like vomit, when I took the pillow case I saw plenty yellow stains on the pillow. Room service... More

Good location anyway, and good view from my window for the sake of cape town's summertime when I stayed there...The breakfast was good but almost everyday when I walked into the breakfast room, the slightly fat man sitting ahead of the entrance would ask my room number when he saw me walking towards the restaurant, I could accept this kinda...
