Top The Watershed Hotel Reviews

Taj Cape Town

10/10 Excellent

"A top class experience all round, I have stayed at the Taj Cape Town on a couple of occasions and they always manage to exceed my expectations. All of the staff are both attentive and friendly and the facilities are excellent. Breakfast is a joy with a huge amount of choice and the Spa is lovely."

The Onyx Apartment Hotel by NEWMARK

10/10 Excellent

"everything is perfect! recomendable!"

ONOMO Hotel Waterfront

10/10 Excellent

"Location ,great staff"

Protea Hotel by Marriott Cape Town Waterfront Breakwater Lodge

8/10 Good

"The rooms are small and have no space for suitcases, so you end up having to step Over your suitcase on the floor. The staff both at the front desk and in the restaurant were super friendly and helpful. The property is at a great location and is clean and well maintained."

Victoria and Alfred Hotel by NEWMARK

10/10 Excellent

"My son and I had an amazing stay , the staff are exceptional . Hotel is lovely and close to restaurants / shops etc"

Queen Victoria Hotel & Manor House by NEWMARK

8/10 Good

"Breakfests were fine, but the lunches and dinners in the restaurant were not so good."

Radisson Collection Hotel, Waterfront Cape Town

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful, clean, lovely staff. Careful of the seagulls if eating breakfast outside, and the bar closes at 10.30pm so order ahead if you want anything after being out for dinner etc."

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."

The Westin Cape Town

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed staying at the the Westin. Beautiful hotel. The staff was very professional, warm, and courteous. Well done!! Thank you"
