Stayed for 5 nights in April with wife and daughters. Check in was formal and slow but helpful, interconnecting rooms were provided as requested but then you wait for the interconnecting doors to be unlocked. Rooms are luxurious and comfortable with very good amenities and facilities. Breakfast buffet is small but good quality and all hot food is "a la... More

Even the rain in Cape Town could not dampen our spirits arriving at the first stop on our South African vacation. The Cape Grace décor is without doubt unique. Cocktails in the library in the evening looking out over the harbor with Table Mountain in the distance (once the clouds lifted) was breathtaking. A wonderful experience. Room was very large....

Our family of five stayed in a 2room suite, perhaps the largest suite I have ever seen. Each of my young children was given a gift package, and slippers and robes in their size! The furnishings, decor, and bedding were excellent. The hotel's room service and dining were 5 star. A total pleasure in every respect. The hotel also booked... More

We were stunned by this ''new hotel'' that can absolutely measure itself with hotels with more history (like for example the Mount Nelson or The Bay). The location on the Victoria and Alfred Waterfront is very handy, you walk out of your hotel and you're in the middle of bars, restaurants, shops...great! The pool is too small and there are... More

We arrived very early in the morning and were greeted by friendly staff. Whilst we waited a very short time for our room, we were served with tea and cake in a lovely seating area. Then we were upgraded to a magnificent suite, it was wonderful. Absolutely beautifully decorated and stunning views of the harbour area from all three sides... More

We stayed at the Cape Grace for three nights, I only wish we had stayed for longer. The hotel is in a great location, is beautifully furnished and has a great team of staff. We were made to feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. Our room was immaculate and very comfortable. The service was just top class from... More

I stayed at the Cape Grace for 5 nights, and was pleased with everything that the hotel had to offer. So much so that I think it's disrespectful to refer to the establishment as a hotel as they are so much more. A lot of thought has obviously gone into making their guests stay as comfortable as possible; from the... More

Came here with my wife when we were house-hunting. Beautiful property with great character and a super location near the V&A wharf. Large room with a cute balcony. The library downstairs has a great book selection, but we were so busy outside that we didn't get to fully enjoy the hotel. Hope we get a chance next time!

As you walk in the door of the Cape Grace, you're treated with carefully studied and discrete attentiveness which continues during your whole stay. The rooms are comfortable, beautifully decorated and equipped to a very high standard. The breakfast was great with a wide range of choices. My only complaint (which the hotel can't be held responsible for) was the... More

We had the pleasure of staying at the hotel, my wife and I were treated like royalty and the staff made us feel very welcome. The saying ''welcome home'' is a nice touch... The rooms are spacious and fully equipped, including iPhone/iPad dock... nice touch... Breakfast was a feast, well presented and great variety. Overall, we loved our stay and... More
