“Highly enjoyable stay on the Waterfront”
I finished a 3-night business trip in Cape Town at this historic property in a commanding position on the Waterfront - recently renovated and re-opened as an Intercontinental.

The space is beautiful, the waiter was obliging, took our order and the coffee was average. The view overlooks part of the waterfront and the lounge area was comfortable, clean toilets and well decorated. We visited at 11h00 when there was only one couple sitting near to us and the rest of the plac… more
