Wow, what a property, what history, what style and the #1 takeaway - what personalization! No wonder guests come back over and over and over. Absolutely gorgeous decor and detail throughout the entire property, rooms, common area and the outside areas on the water, including the very well appointed pool area. Loved it! **2024 I returend with two back to back groups and after a #15 day stay in the destination this was voted their favorite by ALL of them! The rooms, the spa, the service, the restaurants and bars ALL surpassed my expectations and I am so glad it was my first stop for my two groups on my itinerary. I was a bit anxious about Fairmont's changes to the classic vibe of the original Cape and although it is definitely different, Fairmonts bring their own level of class and staff shared they welcomed the improvements/changes. This property will ALWAYS be on my itineraries for myself and clients.

Wonderfully appointed hotel within a stones throw of the V&A and ideal for a short or longer break in the city. On arrival we were greeted with big miles and welcome, lovely reception team and smooth check-in process. The room was large with French doors and a lovely view of Table Mountain and a small harbour. The bed was very comfortable and the room offered a table and two comfy chairs by the doors to sit and enjoy a breeze and the view. It had a large wardrobe and dressing room area leading to a large bathroom with bath and shower together with a separate toilet and double sink. Lovely soap products in the room added to the luxury feel. Air conditioning was excellent without being too cold or noisy. Overall a lovely room with nice calming decor and colour scheme. The hotel had a comfortable bar/lounge area off the reception which was very pleasant for tea/coffee and drinks throughout the day and evening. Restaurant offered a superb breakfast along with great lunch and dinner menus. Staff were welcoming and efficient and we enjoyed all our meals here. Outside pool is small and also an outside bar and dining area, pleasant. They also have a spa with a great choice of treatments and we enjoys a 2.5hr pamper session which was superb and good value. We would highly recommend this hotel for its friendliness of staff, luxury rooms and public areas and overall ambiance and atmosphere - well done Cape Grace team.

Stayed here for 2 nights. The location is great for exploring the V&A wharf area. Some rooms and restaurant have views of table mountain. The room was spacious. Loved the closet hallway. Their luggage rack was a built in shelf that would accommodate butterfly luggage. You could throw a party in the large bathroom.

We arrived at Cape Grace after a long two leg journey from London, the journey from the airport (on a Sunday) was only 30 mins and the check-in team were very welcoming and swift (one minor note the bags took a little while to be delivered to the room which is a bit of a pain when you want to freshen up before dinner). They upgraded our room, balcony and lovely view over the V and A harbour area. it was large, well appointed with a dressing room and storage area as well as large bathroom with separate toilet. The restaurant at least for breakfast was excellent, with a good buffet and great menu selection (Lisa particularly would recommend Halloumi Savoury Oats bowl .. a revelation! …. or the Mushroom Rosti) and again very attentive staff. In fact generally the team at the hotel were excellent (helping us out when we had the wrong adapters and identifying we were heading Avis downtown and arranging a (free) transfer with Ricky for us. All in all a great property and would recommend on quality of rooms, restaurant, location (V and A waterfront is vibrant) and the hotel team.

My family and I had a wonderful stay here at the Cape Grace Hotel (July 2024). I would rate it 10 stars if I could! I will highly recommend this hotel to all my family and friends if taking a trip to Cape Town, South Africa. The staff and accomodations were outstanding! The rooms were large and beautifully decorated and the bed and linens were so comfortable and soft! The bathroom was large and had everything we needed such as: lotion, shampoo, conditioner, soap, cotton balls, Q-tips, heated towels, hair dryer and magnifying mirror! The lobby, restaurants and bars were gorgeous and I especially loved all the fresh flower arrangements throughout the hotel and room. The hotel was in close walking distance to shopping and restaurants! We will definitely stay here again!

This beautifully renovated hotel has been a treat! Our spacious room with French doors overlooking the yacht harbor and Table Mountain is elegant and oh so comfortable for our three night stay. The staff are formal and yet so very helpful and kind. Lizka at the front desk has been a rich source of information and recommendations. We turn to her each day for her friendly face, banter and advice on where to go and even what shoes to wear! In the dining room the staff are attentive and sensitive to our quiet moments and the times we are ready to happily chat. Both Joanne and Sievewe made our day with their impeccable manners and happy conversation after our first cup of coffee! The food has all been delicious. We would love to come again and recommended Cape Grace to friends.

I stayed at Cape Grace with my wife and 11 month old daughter for a week in January. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, the experience was outstanding. The team went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed for our daughter with a play tent, cot, sterilising equipment, nappy bin and baby monitor all provided for us and ready in the room upon arrival. The hotel has been recently renovated to an incredibly high standard including the fastest filling bath I have ever encountered in my life. We had multiple meals in the restaurant and from room service and thought the quality and variety was great. The concierge was always on hand to support on multiple fronts. This included helping us to organise a babysitter so we could go out for dinner to organising complementary taxis within 10km of the hotel. A final word to the staff who were all highly professional, friendly and helpful. If you are first time visitor to Cape Town like me, I would highly recommend Cape Grace.
