This hotel has a beautiful view of table mountain and is set up so everybody can see it, and it is right on the beach.it is a 20 min drive to the waterfront in cape town for shopping and eating, The hotel restaurant blow fish is really good our waitress was very good.. On the downside there were daily power cuts during our visit, due to world wide circumstances,which you can't blame the hotel for, but this property has massive potential for both its own solar panels or a wind turbine combined with electricty storage, this would make this hotel, immune to power cuts, more eco friendly and more profitable, ... surely a no brainer
