Garden Court Victoria Junction

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent staff and a great location for exploring Cape Town We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Garden Court Victoria Junction and would happily stay here again. There was a minor issue at check-in where the incorrect bed configuration had been allocated, but the reception and concierge teams resolved the matter quickly and professionally. The room was spacious, comfortable and cleaned to a high standard every day. Breakfast was excellent, with a wide variety of options that were consistently fresh and enjoyable throughout our stay. What really stood out was the service. Every member of staff we encountered was professional, friendly and genuinely helpful. Nothing seemed too much trouble and everyone went out of their way to assist whenever we needed advice or support. The location was also ideal, being only a short trip from the V&A Waterfront, Kloof Street and Cape Town CBD. A comfortable, well-run hotel with excellent staff and great value for money."
