Cape Town hotels near Gold of Africa Museum

Pros: We loved everything! First, the hotel itself and more specifically the room we got looked even better than the pictures. The staff was incredibly nice and attentive, and the guided tours we went on with Ismael were just perfect.

Cons: Nothing. It was one of the best hotels we’ve ever been to.

Pros: The staff are amazing! The second you arrive you feel so welcomed.

Pros: A very luxurious hotel / villa with an amazing breakfast, one of the best I had so far. It's location is perfect, not too far away from the center and therefore quiet. close to supermarkets, bars, restaurants and cafés and the cape town stadium as well as waterkant, all reachable by feet. the room was very nice with a cosy bed and flooded with natural light.

Cons: nothing - all fine

Pros: Staff really worked at making sure I felt comfortable. Great location. Walk to the stadium or waterfront in under 15 minutes. Safe neighborhood. Lots of food choices. They even provide a place to shower after checking out if your plane leaves late. Great breakfast.

Pros: The people who worked there and the decor was amazing.

Cons: Tiny but good

Pros: Beautifully decorated and furnished hotel, with really wonderful, friendly staff. Breakfast was great, a good mixture of buffet and menu options. The menu options were especially tasty. Really liked the lounge and pool/outdoor areas, with bar and tea/coffee facilities. Location was quite central, but we wouldn't recommend walking at night to/from the hotel (in a taxi/Uber would be fine). Rooms and whole hotel were spotlessly clean.

Cons: Our room was really small, so maybe don't go for the cheapest option like we did! It would be okay for one person, but for two of us it was really tight. If we'd been there any longer than 2 nights it would have got uncomfortable.

Pros: Staff, particularly the receptionist were fantastic! Room very comfortable.

Cons: N/A

Pros: Everything! Great location, incredible value, awesome staff. A great stay!

Cons: Not much, was a great property!

Pros: Friendly staff. Good location

Cons: Lack of privacy in Wanderlust suite. Extremely noisy room.

Pros: Lovely staff , amazing food, location

Pros: Got upgraded to the penthouse suite. Insane! But even without the upgrade the hotel is so lovely. Staff is on point, location amaZing, food even better

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Lovely hotel. Great breakfast & very friendly and helpful staff

Pros: Comfortable and friendly, a great place from which to enjoy Cape Town.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Only a pleasure to stay at this hotel. Beautiful decor, superb service and the best quality. A home away from home.

Pros: Breakfast was good. Restaurant was good, especially the chicken pasta.

Cons: The coffee machine was not user friendly. the light stays on at night and creates disturbance. The coffe is also not very good.

Pros: From start of the holiday until we left all the staff from the Manager down were first class, we arrived at very short notice because of a very bad experience with our first hotel. We checked in on Christmas day, the staff were first class as had a very short window to complete check in as was attending a Christmas Lunch. The Westin Hotel went out of their way to help and assist throughout our stay, would highly recommend this great Hotel... Well done.

Cons: Nothing :-)

Pros: The location is a right between downtown and the V&A Waterfront. Everything is walkable plus you have great cab service as well as the hop-on hop-off bus right out in front of the hotel. Since this hotel is adjacent to the convention center, getting to anything you want for business or please is easy to do. The breakfast spread in the mornings was excellent and the rooms were nicely appointed wth hotel being very clean.

Cons: Since the hotel is at the convention center, if there is a large convention in town (that you are not a part of) you may get overwhelmed by conventioneers. There was a large ANC convention in town while we were there. The hotel was able to handle the added quests, so it reallly wasn't a problem but could be an issue for some. Check the Cenvention Center schedule prior to booking. The only other issue I had was the customer service in general. I really thnk this issue is more cultural to South Africa than it is an issue at the Westin. I just didn't feel like the conceirge's were as helpful as they should be getting tickets for me or helping me find a good restaurant. I sat in the bar area of one of the hotels restaurants (1 meter from a restaurant table - didn't realize it) and we asked to order a desert and was told we needed to get up an move 1 meter to the next table. This kind of rigidity does not exist in the USA..,.the customer is always right and we would have been served. That night we decided to get up and move back to our room. At breakfast, there was mixup with the number of people in our room booking (they claimed the reservatin was for one and we had two in the room). Breakfast was supposed to be complimentary but they made us pay for one breakfast each morning (200 Rand)....an inconvenience. I think this would have been handled differently in the US. Overall, I would recommend the hotel for its location and nice amenities, just don't expect 5 star American style service anywhere in South Africa. (Although I will say the overall service level in South Africa is much higher than anywhere I have been in Europe....espeicallly restaurants)

Pros: Rooms were very clean and well equipped with all amenities. The beds are one of the most comfortable I’ve experienced. The staff were very helpful, friendly and professional

Cons: Not a good outdoor area or pool space for being in Cape Town...

Pros: Comfortable, clean and modern; we stayed in a suite which comes with a great breakfast and cocktail hour

Pros: Just the location and the lounge service and the friendly staff at the lounge

Cons: The staff cleaning was not good in the room the A/C was not working in the living room reported several times they came and told its ok and its not at all keep on ignoring all the time when i reported to the duty manager nothing much she did. When order from the room service u have to pay right away its terrible experience and i will never stay there again and i will never recommended to any one

Pros: Extremely pleasant, capable, and helpful staff ! Well appointed room with great view ! Exceptionally good black-out shades in room that permitted good sleep while adjusting to new time zone ! Very comfortable, Quiet room! Good spa facilities. Good on-sight restaurants. Good buffet breakfast. Excellent wifi, including in the room !! Beautiful design/architecture. Bright and cheerful. I REALLY LIKED THIS HOTEL !!

Cons: Minor complaint: The "lap pool" usually did not serve for swimming laps as it was the only pool at the hotel, it was only one lap wide, and was used by guests for simply lounging in the water. However, the gym was well equipped, so I was still able to get good exercise.

Pros: high quality facility providing full service. Staff is competent, professional and helpful. Room are comfortable and clean. Food is very good. Internet works well

Cons: Sometimes prices on high side for Cape Town where there are plenty of options

Cons: Club Lounge with no Windows, windows not windproof in the room with heavy winds

Pros: Excellent suite rooms and great value for money. The hotel has a free shuttle bus to take guests around the city within a 10km radius. Loved it and will definitely book again for a return to Cape Town next year. Great views from the room of Table and Lion's Head mountains.

Cons: I don't think that there is anything about this hotel that I didn't like.

Pros: The bed and pillows were lovely, the breakfast was awesome, the staff were friendly, the location excellent

Cons: We arrived in the restaurant for breakfast and I couldn’t see any cereal, I asked a staff member ‘do you have cereal?’ They said no sorry, so I started looking further and I found some in the other room, so when arriving for breakfast I think the staff should have explained where everything was.

Pros: The whole stay was fantastic, staff, food and facilities were all excellent

Cons: Wasn't clean The response from house keeping and room Servise too late (take up to 2 hrs) No way to. Compare between it and other Taj hotels across the world Far away from other hotels in Capetown If you book from outside capetown The price Will be 200% more

Pros: Great hotel and friendly staff.

Pros: Initial impressions was one of apprehension as I had to ask to be helped. Otherwise the staff was very helpful and displayed a level of professionalism

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Location, reception staff

Cons: Breakfast takes long, Indian tea which should be available take longer than everything same for Indian menu not available immediately

Pros: Beds very comfortable & linen luxurious

Cons: Breakfast coffee could be presented in a cafetière

Pros: Very comfortable bed and good location

Cons: We booked an executive room which included a airport pick up , however when we came to check out there was an additional charge , so we had to spend 15 minutes trying to locate email to prove it was included, which was very embarrassing and you really do not need the hassle when you are checking out

Pros: Wonderful, friendly, helpful staff

Cons: Dinner at the Mint restaurant was only ok

Pros: Breakfast was excellent, and the staff is amazing, particularly the concierge.

Cons: Bathrooms have windows to the bedrooms above the tub... why?

Pros: The location of the hotel is perfect - rooms are spacious and well designed. Overall one of the best hotels I've stayed in in Cape Town and will definitely be back.

Cons: The hotel does not have it's own parking, so if you've hired a car you need to park at the Waterfront Paid Parking, which can become quote costly. Room service takes extremely long, particularly if there is an event at the hotel restaurant. - in my mind an event at the restaurant should not impact the service guests receive.

Pros: Everything was great, the location is perfect, the decor and atmosphere very nice and the staff very kind and helpful.

Cons: The organization of the breakfast is not nice because we need to carry the hot drinks throughout a very narrow corridor full of food and with lots of people moving around.

Pros: Bed was very comfortable, room good size, view spectacular and location wonderful

Cons: Reception disorganised/disinterested. On checking in, we carried all 4 of our bags and travel cot and stroller and no porter to offer assisiatnce. On the third night the front office staff decided that our baby sitter coulod only come to our room after signing ionto a book, that they could not find, and held us up for about 15 minutes while they looked...finally they allowed her to write on a piece of paper without checking the veracity therof. Each night we stayed, a flashing warning light on the ceiling kept going off, " oh don't worry about that, we'll switch it off". Despite asking the front desk NOT to call the room our kids ( 3 and 18 months) were sleeping in, the did so repeatedly on all three nights. Bar staff inattentive,, room service slow and inefficient, meal for 2 ordered at 11:340 took an hour was cold, (although delicious) and arrived with 1 set of cutlery for 2 meals. ( one does not complain at that jucnture when one is hungry... i just ate. As a family we have spend between 15 and 20 nights a year in Cape Town, always taking either a two bedroom suite or a hotel with interleading rooms. We have some favourites, and apart from a great location and great room, the service in this hotel is so ambivalent borderline disinterested that we will not return.

Pros: Great location with great views of table mountain. Excellent Wi-Fi. Super friendly and great staff.

Cons: The bed was not comfortable, makes noise. The fridge in the room makes so much noise one can't have a good sleep.

Pros: Great concept..funky hotel. Staff was so friendly. Good value for money.

Pros: Great location, great vibe, very friendly and helpful staff ... we really enjoyed our one night at the Radisson RED! It was our anniversary and they spoilt us too

Pros: The rooms were extra spacious, clean and modern. The separate sitting area was a nice surprise

Cons: The swimming pool is very small and it's off some restaurant at the top of the building

Pros: Very modern, design-led hotel.The room was fully equipped with kitchen and washing machine and dryer. Wonderful rooftop restaurant and private pool area which we mostly had to ourselves.

Cons: Limited gym equipment.

Pros: It is a perfect location. The apartment is beautiful and spacious with a gorgeous terrace.

Cons: Absolutely nothing.

Pros: The property is central to everywhere and convenient with friendly staff.

Cons: Nothing.

Cons: Hello, very bad hotel. Never go there 1/ The hotel pretends it has a swimming pool but it doesn't. The swimming pool showed on the pictures belongs to the restaurant. It is rather a extended bath tube and the hotel clients cannot go there. They rate the hotel 5 stars. But for me it is a basic 4 stars. When asking where we could go for a swim with our 7 years old, they recommended some public swimming pools. I have nothing against public swimming pools, but not when you pay a 5 star price because of the nice pictures of swimming pool showed. 2/ Unhonnest treatment of guests: When we said we might leave earlier, they could not do a refund directly. The first tried to rent the rooms again and told us then to leave. As we did not book anything else of course before being sure that we would have a refund; we had almost to negotiate to stay in our room 3/ They take clothes out of the room in order to wash them without being asked by us. Some stuff did not return. TO AVOID ABSOLUTELY. WRONG INFORMATION ON BOOKING

Pros: Comfy bed, nice view, nespresso machine

Cons: Balcony was too small to sit in

Pros: The overall hotel is great and rooms very spacious and the rooftop bar super

Cons: Lack of gym facilities and the swimming pool bit small

Pros: Sparkling clean great facilities

Cons: Nothing
