Perfect Holiday Location

The location is perfect, out of the city but still close enough to get to all the attractions by Uber. We particularly liked the feeling of being safe and able to walk along the beach.

Amazing view

The big selling point of the hotel is the view, which is incredible. Aside from that, the room was huge and very tastefully decorated, only let down by a dated bathroom, which was the only real weakness of the stay as a whole. Service and atmosphere also of a really high standard.

The manager Janis was great. So was the hotel. The only problem was when I gave my key to the desk to go eat breakfast the day I was checking out and I told them I was coming back to go back to my room. When I came back all my stuff that was in the room was at the desk and they said we thought you were checking out. I got no I wasn’t checking out now. I got I got everything in my room down and I had the sign do not disturb. The whole thing was kind of weird to bring all my stuff down like that like I would forget it like I took off and left all my stuff in my room otherwise the hotel was great. I kind of blame the cleaning service at the hotel management.

Vey nice hotel, with amazing views.

We had a very enjoyable family trip at the Blue Peter Hotel. All the staff were really helpful and friendly. The view across to Table Mountain is outstanding and the hotel is well located for the beach and local amenities. We would definitely go back if we have the opportunity.
