Radisson RED V&A Waterfront, Cape Town
Very hard bed. Sent us to the wrong room the first time. Staff seemed bothered that I insisted on getting what I paid for. Also didn’t receive the free bottle of wine I was supposed to get. I was hoping Radisson only sucked in the U.S. but I guess it’s universal.

The Commodore Hotel
Great location just outside main Waterfront area. Classy nautical theme decor however parts of the hotel do show its age. Great value for money and super friendly staff
