    While the vibrant red color scheme of the hotel's interior may not have been to my personal taste, I must admit it does stand out against the surrounding backdrop. However, for those who don't mind the bold color palette, the hotel offers a perfect option for staying in Cape Town. Its central location, coupled with the majestic views and convenient access to the waterfront area, make it a compelling choice for travelers.

    Located in the heart of the city center, Radisson RED Hotel V&A Waterfront Cape Town offers convenience and accessibility. On clear days, a leisurely walk to the waterfront area and mall is a delightful option. Opting for a room overlooking Table Mountain provides a majestic view, with the added bonus of witnessing the morning fog gracefully descending from the mountain's peak. For those considering a stay here, don't miss the opportunity to wake up early and revel in this breathtaking sight

    EXCELENT EXCEPT FOR THE LACK OF WATER

    The menu is very poor and, in my opinion, should have more options of more common food like hamburgers, soups, etc... there is no power outlet in the bathroom so there is no way to use the hair dryer or any other appliance and look in the mirror. The mini bar is maintained OFF while not allocated to a guest for power saving, what I believe is good, but it is not filled during your stay. There is water to drink and the guest has to ask for water all the time, which they bring in small bottles with 200 ml only.

    O staff muito atencioso e eficiente A localização é ótima

    Location is well placed, it's on the V&A Waterfront, a secure walk through restaurants and shops area to get back to the hotel, even at night. Over the bridge and passed the Clock Tower, all good. Room was good and well cleaned, I didn't take breakfast there.

    When I first arrived I thought I’d find it too ‘young’ ‘hip’ and ‘happening’ but we loved it. The location is superb, facilities fab and the homemade granola- wow!! I’m smiling thinking about it! Radisson Blu is more my usual vibe but I have to commend you!

    The staff were superb! Lloyd you made us feel so welcome, thank you! Everyone went out of their way to assist, be kind and make us happy! What a great team. Such a great group of people.

    Nothing- it was lovely. Next time we'll be "not ill" and enjoy it even more!

    It's an excellent hotel in a great location. Through no fault of the hotel we were ill when we arrived, so actually spent a lot of time in our room recovering - and it was THE most comfy "hospi-hotel" you can imagine!! The staff were very sympathetic too, and the roof top bar was actually lovely although we didn't enjoy it as much as we could have. The underground parking beneath make it very easy to arrive at too.

    Probably just the no service later at night....but will give the benefit of the doubt that kitchen may have been closed.

    Not much to faulter location is excellent. But maybe restaurant can have better service later at night.....unless kitchen was closed not sure but we went to an excellent restaurant next door.
