Excellent time staying at the Double Tree. I had the perfect room as Table Mountain was right in front of me. Lovely attentive staff members and peace environment oh of course delicious food. I'll definitely be staying again perfect location and free bus to the Waterfront V & A.
Driving up to the hotel is definitely the downside. The neighborhood is not great. But the hotel itself is great! The staff are wonderful, the room was nice and clean, the food was good and the parking was great. The hotel is in a convenient location and was perfect for what we needed. If it wasn't for the super staff, we may have gone somewhere else.
Staff was amazing, room was very spacious but lacked amenities like blowdryer.
Location of the hotel was perfect for everything we wanted to do (we were in the pick up radius for many tours). Would stay there again

Staff was great. Kind!
Everything felt clean.
Water and coffee set up in the room was great.
Not far from everything you’d want to see
Had a lovely stay - staff were excellent and helped in every way they good. Food was spot on and room with a view and a half !! Table top mountain. A little out of the main area but Woodstock is cool and the in house transport company were excellent
An ideal location from which to greet other members on my tour and depart from in the morning.
Economical, despite the brand expectation, with a good restaurant and attentive staff.
A great base from which to look around.
