Good location in centre of town

What I liked about this hotel was the location and that there was adequate parking outside. Whilst the hotel didn't have a restaurant and we had to go outside to a local place, it wasn't any distance and the food options were what I expected

The room was very nice although the bed had no top sheet and sleeping directly under a duvet can be rather hot. It rained on two of the days and there is no covered walkway between the hotel and the hotel restaurant. The town has become centre stage for a baboon troop and one has to dodge baboons when walking about town, shopping, or going to restaurants.

Lovely little hotel right where you need to be, clean and spacious and I was upgraded to a horbour view room 👍 I was diving off Simon’s Town and had one night as it was convenient for me due to the location of the dive centre. Loads of shops, bars and restaurants around to fill your boots 😊

Sorry, not 4 Star

Hotel is in a great location in the centre of Simons Town and our room had a good sea view and was spacious, however, the reception and the rooms had a slight aroma of stale fried food from the restaurants below. The room itself is in need of repair and ungrade, bed was comfortable, but hard floor whilst swept however the surface was certainly not clean, we quickly we had very dirty soles to our feet. The underside of the shower seat was very badly stained and unhygienic, towels were old and one had a few small holes, surfaces in the bedroom were badly marked and repair or replacement needed as do the walls, no hair dryer was provided and on request the one offered also didn’t work! Our key card didn’t work and the one provided was the hotel master key to all rooms!!! It’s fortunate we’re honest! not sure if I had been happy knowing a random guest could easily enter my room. Balcony was in need of a good clean and sweep, we were also warned about Baboons who were nearby. In fairness the staff were friendly and attentive but the owners need to invest in their hotel and support and train staff. It’s not a 4 star hotel, we stayed in 4 star SA hotels either side of this stay and the difference was frankly very noticeable. Lastly the fire alarm went off one evening due to a client using a fire door upstairs, apparently a regular occurrence?
