“Watch Your Cash”

Reviewed 24 May 2013 NEW

We accidentally left the safe open one day and on return found US$700 in cash missing. The security at the hotel took our report and promised "we will know who was in the room by the electronic key log", all people would "undergo lie detector tests", we "would be reimbursed when they got the thief" and "feedback will be provided...

“Wow - amaze me!”

Reviewed 23 May 2013 NEW

The Taj was one of the nicest hotels that I've stayed in S. Africa. I was originally concerned about the location being downtown and not at the V&A Waterfront, however, it was perfect! There were restaurants close to choose from, the Greenmarket was great souvenir shopping, we were a quick cab's drive to the waterfront. Everything was close. Service was... More

“Disappointed”

Reviewed 22 May 2013 NEW

We arrived at the hotel in the evening after a very long flight and were greeted by an abrasive receptionist on the front desk. She disputed the room rates we had in writing. At breakfast there were frequently no plates available for the buffet. The self service food area was in places, empty for some time and staff had to... More

“High tea in a special atmosphere”

Reviewed 20 May 2013 NEW

I recently enjoyed high tea at the Taj Hotel in Cape Town CBD for the first time. It was a very nice experience - the marble floors and setting was a nice change to my usual high tea favourites (One&Only in the V&A Waterfront, Mount Nelson in Gardens and the Table Bay Hotel in the V&A Waterfront). The staff at... More

“Amazing view”

Reviewed 17 May 2013

We stayed here on our last night as a treat in November, and what a treat! We were upgraded to a suite with a massive bathroom and our friends had a stunning view of table mountain. Breakfast wasn't included in our room rate but a very nice lady at reception waived the bill and made the stay that much more... More

We stayed here for 3 nights in the middle of our tour of South Africa. We'd just come in from a surfing expedition and needed a little TLC...that's just what we got!

“An Impeccable Experience”

I recently returned from spending nine nights at the Taj Cape Town. It was truly one of the best hotel experiences I've ever had. The customer service at the front desk when we arrived was fantastic and they did their best to accommodate our request for a view of Table Mountain. The rooms are very nicely appointed with lots of... More

“Not what I expected”

Reviewed 12 May 2013

How many times have you seen a "five star" rating with a beautiful lobby only to have a room that's a two star? I was pleasantly surprised with everything here. First, if you're not from South Africa don't expect the same level of customer experience as in an American five star property. It's great, but don't judge based only on... More
