Uniquely located on the glittering azure waterfront of Cape Town, the hotel has the majesty of the legendary Table Mountain soaring behind it and every shopping and eatery delight beside it. It’s also a heartbeat away from Cape Town’s pulsing business centre, an easy stroll (or complimentary shuttle) to the famous Victoria & Alfred Waterfront with its myriad of world-class shops, restaurants, cinemas and colourful working harbour, or a short hop to Africa’s most beautiful beaches and the call of our lush and ancient winelands beyond. The state-of-the-art Cape Town International Convention Centre is a mere 5 minutes away.The Radisson Blu Hotel Waterfront provides the finest service, setting and comfort making your stay always one to remember and certainly one to repeat.

Hotel's Favourite
It was my first time in Cape Town and my first time at a Radisson Blu property and it was great. Everyone I encountered was friendly and eager to assist and the property itself is very well located with easy access to the waterfront area by a hotel shuttle. The view from the hotel’s restaurant is amazing and if you are lucky you will get to see an otter flapping about. I want to give special thanks to Zoe who checked me in, Lolo who does amazing omelets, Joel from the Spa and Yusuf from concierge. Would stay again 100% and will recommend.

Best location in Cape Town, nice rooms and the BEST SERVICE EVER. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and approachable. It’s obvious they love their jobs and it shows on their attitudes. Manfred is the best of them all! He’s attentive, knowledgeable and made us feel at home. Will definitely stay here again!!

First time in Cape and truly enjoyed my stay at this hotel. Needless to say the staff was very attentive to our unique needs and more than willing to help. One staff member stood out he walked a distance with us to the corner to point out the way for us.
