Wonderful hotel, great location and delicious food. While all of the staff was very gracious, a special thank you to Badin who checked on us in the Lounge. He was so engaging and kind. I really enjoyed his conversation. I hope to go back someday.

They switched off the AC hotel wide in the middle of the night to cut costs. No airflow, can’t open windows, everyone in our room is awake and can’t sleep. Horrible! There are plenty of hotels on the waterfront, do yourself a favor and choose another

We visited Cape Town to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary and stayed at the Table Bay. When we checked in the hotel provided a bottle of champagne, cake and lovely bed decoration. A lovely touch. The staff were amazing and the hotel facilities fantastic. We had read that the hotel was a little tired, however our experience couldn't have been further from this. A balance of class, a touch of opulence, friendly staff, great location, clean and comfortable. Thank you Table Bay (Sun International). Read less
