Amazing

This hotel is amazing. We stayed here - family of four - in a room with two bunk beds. It was really fun. The breakfast was incredible and the near circular views of the city outstanding. Absolutely loved this hotel.

It was a pleasurably unique hotel. The lobby has a good vibe, reminded my partner of a sort of 70’s disco theme with a 2020’s twist. The check in clerk did a great job. For conventions, it might have the best location. It is a close walk to the waterfront.

Location, staff and breakfast were excellent! Easy walk to Victoria and Alfred Waterfront. The room had a different layout and the mattress needed to be replaced, hollow in the middle! Also the walls were dark brown/black, so very dark.

Nice stay at the Sky Hotel

Hôtel was just opposite the CTICC…where the Mining Indaba was held…so very convenient and practical. The room was quite small…looked like student accommodation, but very neat, clean, equipment was new, nice city view. Staff very nice and polite, good restaurant, nice breakfast with a stunning view of the Mother City…!!!

The hotel is good in general and I enjoy staying there. The location is great and convenient to go anywhere, take tour buses, or walk to water front etc. I booked an airport transfer and the front desk told me 500 rand all included but the driver asked for double when I got there. Lesson learned here: DO NOT trust or use the front desk service.

Very nice stay,the breakfast buffet and restaurant are always great 👍 Gym was quite dirty and weights all over the place although the people using the gym should keep it clean but there should be staff members checking the gym every 2 hours or so just to make sure it is upkept. Otherwise everything was lovely and good 👍😁

Lovely views from the restaurants. Problem is getting to them requires an elevator & they are awful!! Plan @ least 10 minutes to call and get where you want to go. Need to meet a cab at 9:30? Leave your room by 9:20 or you’ll be late! Housekeeping for sleeping rooms is fantastic! Like the coffee machines in the hall on each floor.

Disappointing

Very disappointing stay, rooms very small, not up to Cape Town standards for what you pay. Breakfast was good. Water when shower is cold and hot and inconsistent. No coffee machine in room and water doesn't get replenished. Coffee machine on the floor was also missing. Just very disappointed
