The staff and amenities were fabulous. The great location allowed access to all the sights. The drinks and dining on the rooftop were spectacular. Try the French onion soup!
Fantastic central spot. Spacious and well designed / decorated rooms. Staff were 10/10. Rooftop restaurant is definitely worth visiting. Fantastic food, drinks and vibes. Shout out to London (one of the bar staff). Great energy.
A gorgeous hotel with personality, character and exceptional hospitality
Gorgeous George was one of the highlights of our stay in Cape Town. This is a boutique hotel with a wonderful sense of personality, combining eclectic interiors, beautiful design and a genuinely welcoming atmosphere.
What particularly impressed us was the attention to detail throughout the hotel. Every space felt thoughtfully designed, with distinctive furnishings, artwork and a character that sets it apart from more conventional luxury hotels.
The staff were exceptional, friendly, personable and attentive without being overly formal. Even the playful greeting of “Hello Gorgeous!” at reception added to the hotel’s charm and made us feel welcome. A special shout out to the doormen who went out of their way to make sure we were safe during our visit to Cape Town with insightful advice on where to go as well as how to get to places safely.
We also loved Gigi, the rooftop restaurant and bar, which provided a wonderful setting to relax and enjoy the atmosphere.
What makes Gorgeous George special is that it offers more than comfortable accommodation. The hotel itself becomes part of the travel experience.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily return. Highly recommended for anyone looking for somewhere distinctive and memorable in Cape Town.
The breakfast was amazing! The staff were really friendly and the rooftop area was a real oasis in the busy city. Also, the room size was incredibly generous.
Everyone is so friendly and courteous here at the hotel. Dining experience in the hotel is excellent. Food is top notch.
Security is good.
The only issue is the glass doors for the room toilets. Feels weird/awkward. Even though it's obscure glass, it still feels weird - unless your staying by yourself.
A beautiful hotel!! The staff from the front doorman Arroa, the front desk staff, to the Gigi Rooftop staff, was extraordinary!!
The breakfast was fantastic. I would highly recommend this property.
Amazing hotel with trendy decor. Very comfortable bed. The staff were extremely friendly and the breakfast and dinner was delicious. Would highly recommend if you are staying in this area.
Great design and brilliant location for all facilities. Amazing food and good sized portions. Friendly and helpful staff, nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely stay there again and will recommend to friends.
This is a wonderful boutique hotel, probably the best I’ve ever stayed in (and I travel a lot and stay in many hotels). The attention to detail, the thoughtfulness of the furnishings and decorations made me feel welcome … a yoga mat in the room, a stocked drinks fridge and quality snacks in the room, a full ice bucket and complimentary home baked shortbread biscuits brought to the room at the end of the day, quality artwork on the walls, a comfortable bed with quality linen, a selection of interesting books on the shelves. And then there is the quirky restaurant and rooftop terrace on the 6th floor - Gigi Rooftop - which serves great food and quality drinks … I didn’t want to go elsewhere as is so often the case in business hotels. Best of all is the staff, from the doorman and receptionist to the restaurant staff … they were all great!! Switched on, attentive friendly, they even remembered our names! I can highly recommend this place.
Overall, it was gorgeous!
The staff were incredibly friendly, the roof was so good, however, we did have dinner there one day and they were basically out of everything we tried to order.
