The hotel rooms were comfortable and spotless, though there might have been a small hiccup with readiness upon our arrival. The service, while very friendly and helpful, seemed a bit unsure at times. The location was stunning with easy access to shops and restaurants, plus a comprehensive tour guide service. The dining experience was mostly delightful, yet there were occasional hiccups with cold dishes. Overall, a good value for money stay, with some room for minor improvements.

My stay at the hotel was mixed. The room had a fantastic view of Table Mountain and the harbor, providing plenty to admire. However, it wasn't ready upon my arrival, which was a letdown compared to my previous luxurious experience. The evening check-in time was also inconvenient. The service varied from incredibly warm and friendly to disappointing, with a mix of attentive and uninterested staff. The location was amazing, with insightful tours and beautiful scenery, but some claims fell short. The dining experience had its highs and lows. Overall, there were great aspects but also room for improvement.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms at Table Mountain & the Waterfront were well-furnished and comfortable, but unfortunately dirty, with unclean windows that blocked the view. Service through Abraham was friendly and helpful, though could be more welcoming. The location was great for relaxing and close to the V & A Waterfront, but there were some issues with certain charges. The dining experience of Table Mountain was impressive but chaotic, lacking enough tables, and quiet areas for a peaceful meal.
