Virgin rating

The hotel

An impressive 19-storey hotel located right by the entrance to the Waterfront and the International Convention Centre, The Westin Cape Town is ideally placed for easy access to the city's amenities. Wake up to views of Table Bay, Table Mountain, or the Waterfront from the floor-to-ceiling windows of your stylish room, before sitting down for breakfast (it’s included!) and heading out into Cape Town. Enjoy your downtime with a lap of the pool or a trip to the spa, before relishing a drink at the peaceful alcove of Raleigh’s Bar, or a delicious meal at Thirty7, where sustainable seafood awaits. When it's time to retreat back to your room, enjoy a dip in the soaking tub before sinking into luxurious bedding - and there's room service on-hand should you have any late night cravings!

I couldn’t get a clear answer prior to arrival on the guaranteed late check-out for Platinum Bonvoy. This adds uncertainty in a city where you can’t just sit somewhere with bags.

As much as we stay at the Westin for World Travel Market Africa every year in April and this year being literally my 5th time staying over, I do not take none of the treatment I've experienced as a guest for granted.
