We were delighted with our stay at the V & A Hotel in Capetown. We had had two overnight flights, and were jetlagged so were thrilled that our room was available before lunch when we arrived. We were greeted by the manager who told us he had a "surprise" for us. Being tired, we were a bit leary - we... more

I stayed eight weeks, from mid-May to mid-July 2007, in this hotel (I postpone writing reviews a lot) with some colleagues. My stay was of such kind that it's hard to find negative elements. Here they are: - buskers outside on the piazza made a lot of noise. Not possible to take a nap during the day - if you... more

Beautiful hotel right on the waterfront - we were there Sept 07. Magnificent view right across to Table Mountain. Gorgeous rooms and lovely staff. Would definately stay there again. more

We stayed at the Victoria and Alfred Hotel for the first leg of our honeymoon. The location being in the centre of the waterfront area was excellent for the large numbers of restaurants. Of our 5 nights, we ate in 5 of the most renowned restuarants, inc OYO - very good, Balthazars - average, Baia - excellent, Balducci's - very... more

We've stayed at the V & A before but this time we tried one of their new loft rooms. Because of their location, head room is restricted but this isn't a problem. Our velux window had a stunning view of Table Mountain but we rarely needed to stand under that part of the ceiling. Rooms are beautifully appointed and well... more

If it is your first time in Cape Town, you must stay here! It is very unique with great service. The internet was always available and working which pleased us after we had NO internet in Jo-burg! The hotel is right near the waterfront where there are a ton of delicious restaurants. A must stay place for your first visit... more

We stayed for 6 nights arriving on 12 March 08 and loved it. The front desk staff was extremely helpful to the point of mailing a key back to a bush hotel for us. The travel desk was helpful and knowledgeable and even able to ticket the Hop On Hop Off bus for us as well as book local day/half... more

An excellent hotel with competent service. Arrived from Singapore early in the morning and we were allocated our room by 10.00am. Very good location on Waterfront. Good breakfasts. Were only there for two nights so lack of on site pool and gym was not an issue. Had a Loft Room with great view of the harbour and Table Mountain. Would... more

I can't say enough about the excellent personalized service at this hotel. From the moment we checked in to the moment we pulled away in our car upon checkout we were addressed as Dr and Mrs. Fleck. by every member of the staff. The manager on duty, housekeeping, porter, elevator man, concierge, and valet all went above and beyond to... more

I spent four nights at the V&A in January on a combination of business and vacation. We prebooked the airport transfer with the hotel and the driver was waiting with a placard when we arrived. The room was large, well appointed and spotlessly clean. I agree with other reviewers that there is no need to pay the additional money for... more
