"Beautiful setting in Cape Town"
The breakfasts were wonderful with an incredible assortment of choices. We did not enjoy the one dinner at the hotel restaurant. They lost our reservation, the service was poor and we did not enjoy the dinner itself.
Other than the dinner, the service was excellent and the staff helped us with directions and questions." See all these reviews: 8n in Namibia; 5n in South Africa
"Fabulous hotel"
What a buffet breakfast!!
The location, away from the noisy Waterfront, suited us perfectly, although a car here is probably required if staying more than a few days. The hotel staff park the car and bring it to the front entrance when you wish to go out.
The hotal has a shuttle bus to the Waterfront and chauffered us to and from local restaurants, free of charge, at night.
The travel desk at the hotel books trips and gave very good advice.
Really could not fault this hotel at all." See all these reviews: 5n in South Africa; 3n in Botswana; 2n in Zimbabwe
"Excellent service, good location"
Food and service in the lounge and restaurant was excellent.
The location for us was good with shops within walking distance, and for using the car it was easy to go North, South, West or East while missing the main city traffic.
We had a great stay here and by the end of it didn't really want to move." See all these reviews: 16n in South Africa
"A lovely way to settle in"
The only (small) thing was that although children are very welcome the hotel restaurant wasn't the most ideal place for small children. One evening our daughter broke a plate and spilt a whole glass of juice (not unusual if you've ever been out with 3 year olds) and I was extremely conscious of the couples around me having (or trying to have) relaxed dinners listening to the piano music... We only ate there a couple of times but it might be worth flagging up to any travellers with toddlers." See all these reviews: 12n in South Africa
"Vineyard Hotel review"
We were facing the courtyard and the toads/frogs were very noisy, we had to open the window for ventilation." See all these reviews: 12n in South Africa
