"Great stay! We were 4 nights in a private room and we really liked the place. It was clean, cozy and the bed was really really good, so we had an amazing sleep. All staff members we met were so incredibly nice, which made it really special to stay there. They are hosting little gathering every evening that you can attend. This makes is really cool for solo travelers that want to connect. The location in Green Point is also very safe, so that you can go for a walk. Highly recommended"

"This place was terrible. To start, they tried to make me pay again when I already paid online. I had to speak to the owner on the phone who lied to me about it and was extremely rude. I booked two private rooms and they tried to make me share a room with another guest. I refused because I paid more to have my own room. They do not provide wifi like is advertised and when I pressed the owner, he gave me one coupon for 100mb internet for two rooms (4 people). I told him it was advertised online as...

Taj Cape Town

Taj Cape Town

10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful stay at The Taj. The location was perfect, right in the heart of town, which made exploring so easy. The hotel was beautiful and the service was excellent throughout our visit. I made use of the spa and truly enjoyed the treatment, which was deeply relaxing and a real highlight. A lovely touch was the friendship bracelets on arrival. I still have mine and it is such a special reminder of our stay. I would highly recommend this hotel."
