    No hairdryer in room BUT staff quickly found me one. The TV didn’t provide live TV rather you had to sign in with eg Netflix l/Prime/Apple - none of which I have. A roof top bar is advertised… yes, there is a lovely view of Table Mountain but the area needs a little attention. The steps leading up to it are difficult to manage, it needs tidying/refreshed, it isn’t particularly inviting and, as a solo female traveller, was not entirely comfortable up there. Also the advertised “pool” is jacuzzi size. Nevertheless I enjoyed my stay.

    Location with easy walking to key sites and main thoroughfares,the back story (ie diamond history), an extremely comfortable bed, good shower with plenty of ready hot water, excellent reading lights.. Most of all the staff who were welcoming, friendly and helpful. I also discovered several excellent coffee shops, cafes, wine bars within close proximity (furthest only 10 min walk).

    Breakfast was a tad disappointing- as I’ve asked for a fried egg or even scrambled egg but was told they only have boiled eggs which I don’t even eat. I was told that nobody knows how to make it at this point which is not a fair argument considering one has to pay R120 for breakfast.

    It’s central, the staff are young , dynamic and fun. And helpful of course. They are very proactive. It’s clean. I like having to catch a breather on the rooftop with the view of Table Mountain. Absolutely amazing!

    The shower drain on the first room they gave me is not working. So they have to move me to another room. Water from shower is not strong. They should have informed me that breakfast option is not available during my stay before I arrived.

    Hotel is centrally located, with daily room cleaning, with Netflix and helpful staffs. (Breakfast was not available during my stay).

    The breakfast was very limited in terms of variety - for someone who had a bunch of activities lined up for the day, we needed a filling breakfast. Otherwise, everything was spectacular.

    I loved just about everything. The interior was very pretty. They had this piano music playing on the background by the reception area and it was soo soothing - i just loved it. Cape Diamond Boutique Hotel was close to so many facilities - which saved us a whole lot on uber costs. We could walk to shops and restaurants around. V&A Waterfront Mall is not that far- Just 12 minutes away by uber. The staff was amazing. Mr Masi from reception was such great help, was so patient with us and our million questions about cape town. Would definitely come back.

    One of the few places in Cape Town that will not cancel your booking last minute.

    The lack of parking for hotel guests was a big challenge for me, especially since we had to pay for parking on the street. The shower in one of the rooms we had on the first day was also messy.

    The hotel is conveniently located within the Cape Town CBD. The problem is that there is no parking for patrons, which is an inconvenience. The staff is very friendly, they made our stay very pleasant. I want to thank Valentino, Masi and Itu for being good spots and making our stay there great.
