Cape Heritage Hotel

The hotel itself is majestic. The entrance with the green leaves trickling off the arched awning is reminiscent to a scene in a movie. The room was elegant and had a classic homie feel. The hotel is located at the heart of the nightlife. Close to so many cool bars like The drinkery, House of Machine, and Art of Duplicity(amazing hidden jazz bar). The staff was welcoming and always smiled, but there was a moment on the second day as I walked up the beautifully carpeted stairway leading to my room where I got confronted about whether I was a guest or not. Besides that moment, everyone was nice.

Beautiful old hotel that has been tastefully renovated. We had a massive bed in a large and comfortable room. It had a slipper bath and a separate shower. The staff were so helpful and nice. We chose to have breakfast there every day. Our stay felt more like being at home than in a hotel.

Hotel is lovely and the staff that work there are just fantastic. We stayed for 4 nights and, as others have said, it is a bit noisy in Friday and Saturday nights. Overall, with earplugs, it wasn't intrusive. Breakfast was great and the area is super for restaurants.

Boutique hotel in one of oldest houses in central Cape Town.Location excellent for walking to all major sites in area.Staff went out of their way to help.

My better half and I were fortunate to visit Cape Town, staying 14 nights at the Cape Heritage Hotel on Bree St - what a truly fabulous find and a gem of a location !!! Despite check-in being in the afternoon, when arriving off an early morning flight we were welcomed in a genuine and friendly way, whatever drink we wished for was provided and staff worked hard to ensure our room would be ready as soon as possible - which it was within an hour. Throughout our stay, all staff are outstanding - clear they have a real pride about what they do plus want to ensure a stay is as pleasurable and smooth as possible !! Friendly, always taking an interest plus seeking to enhance a trip to where ever you are going with a bit of local knowledge, every one of them is a credit to the Cape Heritage Hotel. Hotel is located in an excellent part of the city, surrounded by outstanding eating venues, a short walk up to Bo-Kaap and about a 10/15 min stroll down to the V&A waterfront. Very vibrant, safe and very friendly. Breakfast can be served inside or out - we always sat outside under a beautiful vine - the oldest documented in the Southern Hemisphere plus was situated in a historical courtyard style area. So much fresh choice and service fantastic. Always worth taking time to read the daily "thought for the day" posted on the info board !!! Bedroom was excellent, very clean, bed exceptionally comfortable plus bathroom/shower was a joy after a long day pout and about. Air conditioning worked a treat (plus was quiet compared to many we have experienced. Nice small touches on a daily basis such as info on weather for following day, a daily fresh biscuit/cookie left etc. They also provide a beach bag with towels/sunscreen and plates if heading off to one of the many beaches for a day. Have already enthused to several regarding Cape Town, including a couple of former South African residents who were thinking about returning for a holiday and catching up with friends - 100% recommending the Cape Heritage Hotel to them. Thank you for enhancing what was an outstanding time in Cape Town - we will be back !!!!

What a find. Well located in CBD for walking to waterfront or museums, this heritage building has been sympathetically restored into a comfortable and welcoming hotel. Staff were so friendly and helpful, including help with luggage and advice about how to get to places. Huge rooms, air con if needed, a pillow menu and filtered water all available. Good arrangement with nearby car park works well. Excellent breakfasts!
