My husband and I stayed here for 1 night and it was absolutely divine. We were in room 1205. From when we arrived the staff were all so friendly, the hotel is beautiful, clean, smells nice and there is fresh ice tea on hand. The room itself is so beautiful - shades of greys, with beautiful artwork and furniture. We... More

Good hotel. If 5 starts is a must for you, Queen Victoria is your choice. If you can live with 4 stars, Victoria and Alfred Hotel (sister property of Queen Victoria) is probably a better choice as far as the location is concerned. Not that Queen Victoria is such a long walk from V&A waterfront, but Victoria and Alfred is... More

My wife and I stayed four nights here as the start of our 2 week holiday to SA. We were a little worried when our taxi turned into a car park around the back of the stadium on first arrival, thinking we had chosen a bad spot. However we soon discovered that we were on a small hill next to... More

Perfectly located near the Waterfront. Service was impeccable and we found the staff to be very helpful and efficient. Rooms were very stylish / modern and clean. Bathrooms were spacious, however, the toiletries / shampoo can be improved as per my wife. Would stay there again.

The queen victoria hotel is located right by the waterfront. The rooms are modern, clean and luxurious. My husband and I used this hotel for our wedding night, and then a few nights after that too. The staff were also very willing to offer assistance. Our biggest issue was learning how to turn the shower on! (just turn the knobs... More

It is rare to find a hotel that combines excellent location, design style, and warm service. But this is the Queen Victoria. I had read the tripadvisor reviews which led me to choose this hotel for a 2 night stay in Cape Town. The hotel exceeded my expectations. The front desk staff were extraordinary, from making sure I got a... More

Good hotel, perfect location for visiting the city and dinning in the waterfront. Loved the breakfast and the service. House keeping was good. The hotel is lovely set. Waterfront is a very good area for entertainment with family, kids, friends or couples. Recommend it to everyone

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
The Queen Victoria Hotel is the newest addition to Newmark Hotel’s portfolio, which offers a myriad of ideally located upmarket hotels, other accommodation options and restaurants. What sets this unique five-star boutique hotel apart is the attention to detail given by the creative team responsible for its development, who achieved this through their unwavering passion for awe-inspiring design.From the creative brief of ‘where classic elegance meets contemporary design’, every effort has been made to ensure that the 35-room Queen Victoria Hotel is a haven of calm, luxury and understated opulence amongst the hustle and bustle of Cape Town’s popular V&A Waterfront.The interiors create an ambience of peaceful elegance, through the use of greys and taupes, marble-clad walls, crystal chandeliers, white marble and wooden parquet flooring, not to mention the triple-volume foyer with its dramatic white spiral staircase, glass lift and crystal chandeliers. The signature shade of deep purple has been employed to add a touch of regal eccentricity as an ode to the historic figure after whom the hotel is named.From the food and beverage offering at the hotel’s restaurant and bar, Dash, to the interior aesthetic, the Queen Victoria Hotel embodies a sense of international flair fused with local flavour. The menu at Dash is structured around classic French cuisine, with all ingredients sourced locally and seasonally, while ninety per cent of the interior pieces were sourced from local design geniuses.With a management team and staff dedicated to making every guest feel like royalty, a stay at the Queen Victoria Hotel will certainly exceed your expectation of what five-star luxury should be like. ... more   less
