Hotels near Piazza St John, Cape Town

"Such a pretty hotel, more like an air bnb. If you’re looking for aesthetically pleasing space, this is it. Location is great, 2 minute walk to the promenade and the area is relatively safe. Enjoyed the coffee from downstairs coffee shop, Juno."

"The room was okay. The view from the rooftop was 👏"

"We only stayed for one night and checked in late in the evening. The check in process was quite simple and fast, they also provided the bed for a baby upon request (we forgot to book it in advance). The breakfast was really nice, lots of options and great coffee!"

"Hotel and staff were great in that area also I arrived a little bit earlier and staff gave me room before check-in time.  Breakfast was good but I recommend to go earlier than others for avoiding rush hour."

"very nice hotel, convenient location, excellent breakfasts and nice staff. beautiful view of the ocean from the room."

"Disappointing — Not the Taj Experience I Expected I stayed one night at Taj Cape Town and, having stayed, worked, and studied at other Taj properties worldwide, I left feeling that this hotel does not deliver the signature “Taj” experience. Location: Excellent — centrally located and convenient for business and sightseeing. Rooms: Very good. The guest room was well-appointed, comfortable, and met the standard I expect from a five-star property. No complaints on accommodations. Food & Beverage: Below expectations for a Taj. The breakfast buffet was serviceable but average — acceptable for a quick meal, but nothing memorable in terms of variety, presentation, or quality. The on-site Asian restaurant is extremely small (about five tables) and suffers from poor ventilation: the exhaust does not appear to function adequately, so the space quickly fills with an oily cooking smell that lingers and detracts from the dining experience. The food itself was below the quality I would expect from a Taj-branded restaurant. Service & Brand Feel: This is where the hotel most noticeably misses the mark. While staff were professional, the overall atmosphere lacked the warm, polished service and attention to detail that distinguishes other Taj properties I have experienced. It felt more like a standard city hotel operating under the Taj name rather than a hotel delivering the full Taj brand promise. Value: Concerning. The hotel charges approximately INR 2,000 per day for parking — a steep add-on that should be clearly communicated up front and factored into the overall value proposition. Summary: The location and rooms are strong points, but the average breakfast, a small and poorly ventilated Asian restaurant, and an overall absence of the characteristic Taj hospitality leave this property short of expectations. If you are seeking the classic Taj experience, this particular hotel may not meet that standard."

"Delighted with the hotel! - there are no other words to describe it. Very comfortable and large room with an ocean view, kitchen with groceries, everything is very convenient. Located across the street from the beach. Nice girls at the reception - they helped call a taxi, and since I didn't have cash, only a card, they helped me make a payment through the hotel. And then they even carried my suitcase to the taxi and loaded it, the taxi driver didn't even get out of the car. I didn't expect this from Uber in South Africa... Apparently that's how it's done there."

"I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The room was clean and comfortable, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the overall atmosphere was welcoming. The location was convenient, and everything I needed was easily accessible. I would consider staying here again in the future."

"The duty Manager, Victoria, was great and very accommodating. It was our wedding anniversary and Victoria accommodated our request for a view facing Table Mountain. We were very happy about that. The housekeeping staff were brilliant, always smiling and joyful to all guests making them feel welcome. In terms of the restaurant/breakfast area, it was quite disappointing as we noticed some guests receiving more attention than others, and at times, felt as though we were ignored and invisible. Unfortunately, on our last day, we bit into a sharp and hard piece of what seemed like bottle plastic in the food from the buffet section. When alerting the restaurant staff, they did not really seem bothered about the danger it had should we have swallowed it."
