    Perfect location right in the middle of the V & A Waterfront which had plenty of restaurants, cafes and shops and felt safe. We had a Mountain View room which was amazing to look out over the waterfront and across to Table Mountain … we saw seals and dolphins playing in the water from our room plus at breakfast. Plus the room was massive compared to other hotels we have stayed in in other cities. Breakfast is served inside and out in front of the waterfront so amazing views, plus great breakfast choices. There is valet parking which is free (incredible for a city location) so you can just park up your rental car in front of the hotel … perfect no hassle trying to find a parking space. Also walking distance from the hotel into Cape Town city centre itself. All the staff are so friendly, helpful and attentive. Loved our stay, would totally recommend the Victoria and Albert Hotel.

    The fact that we had to be out of our room by 11.00 and our flight wasn't until 8.00pm in evening. They had nowhere for us to change in. Changing in the public loo in foyer not at all suitable - however, it is what it is. Could have a small room for customers to use as this ruins your last day of a an excellent stay.

    Breakfast was SUPERB with all staff really friendly and GENUINLY pleased to greet and talk to you - despite being busy! Room exceeded expectations with wonderful separate toilet (a real plus when its not within the bathroom. Bathroom was incredible with large Shower AND bath AND twin basins. Room was superb with PLENTY of drawers and space to put everything. Higher priced hotel we have stayed in during previous stays couldn't match the storage facilities in the room. Most hotels we stay in are almost always very lacking in drawer space. Bed really comfy. Cleanliness really good. Fabulously appointed. Wonderfully centraly located hotel in the Piazza. Location couldn't be more perfect. Right in the center of Quayside. Easy walks to everywhere. Hop on/Hop of buses around the corner to get you to beaches, vineyards,..you name it. Sit and people watch or have an adventure and tandem paraglide over Cape Town for that "Wow" factor! All sightseeing tours just a walk away. Can't be beaten for location and accessibility. Hotel has views over the Piazza and of Table Mountain. Sit, eat and drink on the wonderful seating area (shaded with fantastic canopies that withstood the wind completely!) with table mountain as a background for photos. Waiting service fantastic as was the fabulous food. Wonderful seating area on quayside. If you want a change there are dozens of restaurants am few steps away, as there are shops et al. Five Star rating plus - GREAT value for money. Could write a book!

    I find myself hard-pressed to pinpoint aspects that we did not like. From the warm reception and meticulous housekeeping to the exceptional service at the restaurant and bar, every aspect of the hotel was well-organized, contributing to a memorable and flawless experience.

    Celebrating 30 Years of Love at Victoria and Alfred Hotel, Newmark Cape Town. My wife and I chose the Victoria and Alfred Hotel by Newmark in Cape Town as the destination to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary, and what an excellent choice it was! Our stay from the 14th to the 21st of December was nothing short of remarkable. The hotel's location could not have been more ideal. We were enchanted by the convenience of having a mall just a stone's throw away. The area around the hotel is a food lover's paradise, with many restaurants to choose from. A highlight for us was the accessibility to the hop-on-hop-off bus service, with a stop just around the corner from the hotel. This made exploring Cape Town a breeze and allowed us to soak in the city's beauty and culture effortlessly

    Amazing location, right next to the waterfront, mall and restaurants. Also right next to the ferry terminal to Robben Island. Room was huge and very spacious. The shower was probably the best shower I’ve ever had at a hotel as it was very powerful. Staff were very helpful and accommodating.

    - swimming pool could be a little better but given the location it makes sense they have partnered with another hotel for the pool and it’s still very relaxing there

    - view from the room was amazing - bar and restaurant are really good, great breakfast - staff were fantastic the whole stay - perfect location and amenities - special touches
