Top Rondebosch East Hotel Reviews

The Rockefeller Hotel by NEWMARK

10/10 Excellent

"Great location! Very helpful staff and the restaurant on site is delicious."

InterContinental Table Bay Cape Town by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Location was unbeatable. The hotel is directly connected to the mall and also within walking distance of the Oranjezicht City Farm Market, which made getting around incredibly convenient. The whole surrounding vicinity felt safe, and the views from the hotel were stunning. With Table Mountain in the background, we even caught a rainbow while having breakfast by the window overlooking the wharf — such a memorable way to start the morning. If I were to nitpick, I would suggest going down earlier for breakfast if you want to enjoy the spread at its freshest. Perhaps because we were there on weekdays and turnover was lower, some items felt like they had been sitting out for a little while when we went later in the morning. Nothing major, but worth keeping in mind. The room itself was comfortable and well appointed, and we particularly appreciated how easy the hotel made our stay. Between the waterfront location, the views and the convenience of having the mall right next door, it was a very easy base for exploring Cape Town without feeling removed from the city. Overall, I would happily stay here again, particularly for a first visit to Cape Town. The location really is the standout — convenient, scenic and in an area where we felt comfortable walking around."

Radisson Hotel Cape Town Foreshore

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent Stay at the Radisson Hotel Cape Town Foreshore. Room was nice and spacious! Breakfast was delicious and the restaurants for dinner were great. It was great to be 5 minutes from V&A Waterfront as we utilized the shuttle to get to and from tours. Great view of Table Mountain at the rooftop. Overall, great stay and the staff were all amazing! Would definitely recommend staying at the Radisson Hotel Cape Town Foreshore when visiting Cape Town South Africa!"
