"This place was terrible. To start, they tried to make me pay again when I already paid online. I had to speak to the owner on the phone who lied to me about it and was extremely rude. I booked two private rooms and they tried to make me share a room with another guest. I refused because I paid more to have my own room. They do not provide wifi like is advertised and when I pressed the owner, he gave me one coupon for 100mb internet for two rooms (4 people). I told him it was advertised online as...

Top Cape Town Science Centre Hotel Reviews

Taj Cape Town

10/10 Excellent

"I've stayed at The Taj many times, this time was a different purpose as I had a medical procedure to undergo. I wanted to know I could recuperate afterwards in a hotel where I would have a spotless clean and quiet room, plenty of space, great amenities, full blackout curtains, comfortable bed, choice of pillows, and having great staff on hand to take care of whatever I would need in my stay. Knowing I would not really leave my room for a few days I need a great room. All of this I got, and great in-room dining. I was able to enjoy the J-Wellness spa before I had my procedure which was great for being relaxed and ready for that. As ever The Taj and the wonderful staff who work there really excelled at making it a great experience. I will be back soon."

Hotel Sky Cape Town

10/10 Excellent

Little Scotia Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Great location near UCT, clean modern comfortable rooms, very helpful staff, nice shower, nice breakfast. Only two very minor complaints: the internet in my room was unreliable (though better in my friend’s room), and I wished there were conditioner besides shampoo. Otherwise, perfect!"
