I was staying adjacent and buying ones an awesome massage at the Sanctuary Spa! Destiny was fabulous and, like magic, worked out muscle tension in my back. She is a pro and the entire staff are lovely! The facility is small and quite charming.

Really wonderful hotel which is ideally placed for exploring the V&A waterfront and taking in all Cape Town has to offer. The staff are all excellent and really make you feel welcome. Rooms are spacious and spotlessly clean and ours had a lovely view of table mountain. This is a really elegant hotel with a ground floor bar (well stocked) and superb restaurant. Breakfast is wonderful and evening dinner was delicious. As this was our honeymoon holiday we had petals arranged on the bed which was a very nice touch. All in all we really had an outstanding stay and we would not hesitate to stay here again, its beautiful. Very highly recommended 🙂🙂🙂🙂 Read less
