What guests loved the most

“It’s a beautifully designed space and the service was excellent. I really liked it.”

“The room was comfortable and quiet; right in the middle of the lovely Waterkant area of CPT. Easy to walk to many of the sights and Uber is always available when you want to ride. While I didn't eat at the Grey, I enjoyed Shio and Lucky Bao, both on the grounds of the hotel and both ABFAB! The staff is most helpful and friendly!”

“Super boutique hotel in the heart of De Waterkant. So convenient for early morning yoga at Yoga Life an easy walk from the hotel. Delicious breakfast across the street. My room was perfect. Big comfy bed. Beautiful decor. Fabulous fragrance so touches all the senses. Exquisite restaurant downstairs called Shio! This little hotel is my favourite place to stay in Cape Town while working around Sea point.”
