Queen Victoria Hotel by Newmark

We had a Mountain View suite - room 1205. The view across the V&A Waterfront to Table Mountain was spectacular and lovely to have a balcony so we could sit outside and watch the sunsets. The room was huge. A little strange to have a shower with a glass panel through to the entrance corridor, but made it a talking point ! Being right on the main road, it was a little noisy, but not so much so as to disturb us, and worth it for the views. A few steps to the V&A Waterfront. Breakfast was a good range of cold buffet and hot options (savoury and sweet). We also had the option of breakfast at the neighbouring Victoria & Alfred hotel, which served a wonderful breakfast. In both cases, possible to sit outside and enjoy the view of Table Mountain.

We have stayed at a number of places in Cape Town over the years. The One and Only is fabulous but has become so expensive. The flats in the V&A are great value but we miss the pampering and facilities of a hotel. The Table Bay hotel is a little too big and busy. The QV was a great compromise. Fantastic service, great location and good value. Felt very safe and looked after. The pool was a bonus although the number of loungers meant that it was difficult to go out in the day and find a place for a family in the late afternoon. The pool itself isn't for swimming. The pool bar prices are fair but menu limited....but you can walk to the Time Out market which had lots of different choices at a premium price for SA…..Breakfast is solid. DASH is great. This place is all about a boutique hotel in a great location. Best compromise in light of the increasing prices in Cape Town in high season.

The mássage was wow With Destiny was unique dont miss 90 min deseo tissue her knowledge of human body wow I would Gladley como back any other day I came from Mexico Will be back soon The Service was outstqnding and I Am very happy I walked in to the spa

Excellent stay with super helpful staff. The hotel is well situated near the V&A waterfront. Rooms are well appointed in a mixture of modern and historical styles. It was a little difficult figuring out the light switches. The staff was very helpful, especially when we had troubles with our tour arrangements. Breakfast is first class and well prepared.

My husband and I spent a lovely 5 nights in this lovely hotel. The staff was most attentive and friendly. Coming from Miami, we were overwhelmed by the kindness of the people. The restaurant Dash was delicious and although you could also have breakfast (until 11 am) at the sister property by the water, we preferred it upstairs. The spa was also lovely. Had a pre-departure pedicure (lying down) and facial. We will be back for sure and will explore the Manor next time.

From start to end this hotel was sublime. Given a warm welcome, luggage taken care off and a drink upon arrival. Followed by being shown our stunning room. The rooms are beautiful. The location is right on the waterfront and easily walkable to lots of places. Easy ubers to other main sights. The view of the mountain at breakfast or an evening drink with the sunset capped it all off. Thanks for a great stay.

This is an absolutwlly wonderful hotel and location. Right by the action yet above it aonit is quiet and quaint. The rooms are beautiful, as is the customer service. My only hesitation on staying there again is the limited menus. For business travel you vaue beimg able to grab dinner etc lat at the hotel. The options are extremely limited. They will try to make ad hoc bur would be nice to have more options.

A beautiful and convenient hotel to start our South Africa trip. So central to the V&A, with all its shops, restaurants and bars. Our ground floor room with garden terrace was beautiful. We enjoyed breakfast every day at the hotel and the one evening meal we had in-house was amazing. The staff were always smiling and nothing was ever a bother. Thanks to everyone!

We stayed at The Queen Victoria for 6 nights on the first part of our holiday to South Africa. The hotel is in a perfect location, 5 minutes walk to the Waterfront, the red city sightseeing bus, or the ferries to Robben Island. The staff are wonderful and so helpful. A special mention must go to Gwen who welcomed us, recommended and booked restaurant reservations and arranged a wonderful trip to Cape Point, including the penguins on Boulders Beach. She seemed to know exactly what we’d like and “made it happen”. Oswald was also wonderful with a smile and helping hand, showing us the way to the sightseeing bus, helping with luggage and a lovely welcome each time you entered the hotel. Our room was perfect - huge comfy bed, plenty of storage space, and a big bathroom with 2 sinks, bath and shower room. Robes and slippers are provided and the hotel toiletries were excellent. Breakfasts were good with the usual selection of cold or freshly prepared hot dishes. We often ate on the veranda with views of table mountain, a lovely way to start the day. One morning we ate at The Victoria & Albert Hotel, across the road, where you can enjoy views of the harbour. Worth doing if you have the time. All in all this is a wonderful hotel to stay at and we would highly recommend it if considering where to stay in Capetown. Thanks to all the staff for a wonderful stay. We used the garden and pool area a couple of times during our stay as it’s a lovely place to relax. There were plenty of sun beds and a bar serving food and drinks. Unfortunately the water in the pool was too cold for us so we didn’t actually manage a swim. The garden is a haven of peace despite the busyness of the Waterfront being so close.
