Eikenbosch Vacation Packages

Quiet and good location. Breakfast good and friendly staff. Beds comfortable but terrible pillows. Way too large/thick for any woman and no thinner ones available

We absolutely loved our time here! For comparison, earlier we stopped over for one night in Cape Town during our trip and stayed at a supposed luxury hotel directly on the V&A Waterfront. It was awful. We were so glad we had booked a different hotel (The Taj) when we returned to Cape Town the second time, for our final leg of our South Africa trip, a 3 night stay before returning home. Upon entering we already knew it was so much better than the last hotel. Even without comparing, The Taj completely stands on its own in every category: Service: Amazing front desk staff, the bellman’s are so respectful and attentive. The housekeepers and waitstaff were full of smiles. Amazing service and staff. Dining: Wow!! The breakfast blew me away, from the menu to the buffet option, it was fresh, well prepared and delicious! We also ate at their restaurant, Bombay Brasserie, which was delicious! From the chefs tasting bites to the butter chicken, it was great! Spa: Two people in my party got massages (Warrior massages) from different people. One loved their massage and one thought it was okay. Overall, they enjoyed the spa services and would try another service. Overall, we loved our stay so much, we looked up the hotel brand of Taj Hotels and are planning to stay with them when we go to Dubai.

Staff were friendly and helpful

The Hote's location is very good. Walking distance from some bars and restaurants. The room was very spacious and beautiful. There is however is problem with the water system of the hotel. We stayed in Room 808 and the sound of running water through the pipes were so loud, that they had to move us at 04:00 in the morning to another room, because we could not tolerate the sound anymore. We were moved to room 812. Although we could still hear the water running through the pipes, it was not as loud when you closed the bathroom door. The buffet breakfast was very good, but it would have been nice if the waiter informed us of the menu where we could also order from. I would stay there again just on a different floor.
