I have stayed twice at this hotel on business trips to SA. It is really good - the apartments are a welcome break from hotel rooms and are very spacious, with lounge, dining area, galley kitchen, bathroom (shower + bath) and large bedroom. whether it was luck or a nice touch but I was put in the same apartment both times. The breakfasts are fantastic with a good range of buffet food from hot to cold. The location is convenient too, a stone's throw from the start of the N2 motorway and access to the Cape and the interior and a perfectly safe walk to the V&A and into town (with security present). Also, there is good underground parking once you work out how to get to it. The staff were very helpful too, kindly arranging a late check out for me on my most recent stay.
My only gripes are the wifi, which was a little slow and occasionally dropped out, the very small swimming pool and the basement gym which was a little austere. These are minor complaints though! Overall great place and I would stay there again.
