Great hotel, location is tricky, though -- looks very close to V&A Waterfront on the map, but effectively walking there will take you ~20 minutes crisscrossing the canals.

Great hotel and faultless service

Not being right on the waterfront - and having to Uber there and back at night, rather than walk - is a little frustrating, but other than that this hotel was perfect. Rooms are huge and tasteful, everything is spotlessly clean and the staff are exceptional - pleasant and efficient service at every encounter.

Wonderful hotel, but location is remote

Stayed for 3 nights in June 2025 prior to a group tour. The hotel is great and all of the staff members were lovely and kind! The only negative about this hotel is that it is essentially at the end of a dead end road (there is a security fence surrounding the hotel), so you have to follow the road back out to the main street to go anywhere. That being said, we walked around quite a bit, even at night, and found the area very safe.
