Top St. James Hotel Reviews

Hotel Sky Cape Town

Hotel Sky Cape Town

8/10 Good
"This hotel room is very long/narrow, have to walk sideways to get from the bed to the restroom. The flatscreen TV sticks out in between 2 beds so if not careful, you will bump into the TV box since you already have to walk sideways. The room is clean, the bathroom counter has ample space. The hotel does provide for small bottles of shampoo, conditioner, and lotion. There is no phone in the room, but didn’t detract from the room. The hotel lobby is decorated with lots of lights, golden colors, appear slightly gaudy and resembles Las Vegas hotels. Breakfast buffet is plentiful with made to order eggs or omelets, a variety of fruits, waffle, pastries are decent, Britz and toaster. Coffee was decent. Overall, the plus is places clean, small hotel rooms with slightly awkward, narrow spaces. Three star hotel with prices to reflect the quality."
