The hotel is very beautiful, in a historical location. Lots of bars and restaurants in the area. 3 min walk from the hop on. /hop off buss station. It's full of charm and history. The inside patio was also gorgeus! Perfect for breaksfast or if you just came back from a day of sightseeing. If you are looking for a tour, please ask at the reception for them to organize a tour with Domingo. An amazing human and a very knowleadgeble tour guide. We had an amazing day with him, going to cape point and boulders beach!

Obviously, the building is stunning. The location can't be beaten in terms of centrality. The beds were the most comfortable we slept in during our SA trip. The amenities in the bathroom were superb, including the hot water in the bath. Breakfast is the 'usual': granola, some fruit and eggs.

We were given a street-side room and were not lucky with a water pipe that burst and needed 24/7 reparation that lasted our entire stay. Although we were given a one-night swap of room (not easy to ask), we hardly slept during our stay. In that sense, we rather had booked ourselves into a backpackers. In case you book this hotel, bring ear plugs or ask for a room on the backside.

Quite simply a GEM of a hotel located in an excellent part of Cape Town that has history just ooooozing out of it !! All staff are outstanding, genuinely friendly, warm and welcoming. Always smartly turned out, positive and eager to help, everyone employed here has an obvious pride in what they do. Room was perfect, bed super comfortable, shower strong and plenty of pressure that ensured an invigorating start to the day plus air con worked perfectly. A beach bag with towels, plates and suncream is supplied should you be visiting one of the numerous beaches - a nice touch as is the "thought for the day", weather and info board located in the indoor breakfast room. Breakfast was awesome - great choice plus could sit outside under the vine canopy provided by the oldest documented vine in the southern hemisphere. This hotel forms part of a historic enclosed square, is a stones throw from Bo-Kaap, outstanding restaurants plus a pleasant saunter down Bree Street to the V&A Waterfront. My better half and I were really delighted to have chosen this hotel as our base whilst visiting Cape Town and cannot praise it highly enough.

Absolutely nothing.

The Cape Heritage Hotel is located in a historic building from 1771 and is absolutely gorgeous inside and out. It focuses on art and has rotating artists on display. The courtyard used for breakfast is beautiful and I cannot speak more highly of the staff- they are so friendly, polite and accommodating to all requests. The room was large and extremely comfortable. Location was close to many good restaurants and in a central area, close to the Bo-Kaap neighborhood as well. HIGHLY recommend.

Our room looked out over the back courtyard where a restaurant/bar operates, the noise consistently lasted until 11pm-12am and on the First Thursday of the month it lasted until 2am. We were warned ahead of time (ear plugs in the room!), but it did affect our sleep.

Great location and a very interesting, historical building. A lot of good restaurants and sights in walking distance, some connected to the hotel. I was a bit concerned about the location and safety of the area since most tourists seem to stay at other areas of the city, but I was extremely happy with my choice. Service is great generally. The room/bathroom were big and comfortable with interesting decor. Although the site mentioned "no parking", there is a parking lot very close by with an agreement with the hotel, which made it very convenient.

Saturday evening was a bit noisy with people outside were talking/yelling out loud until 3 am, perhaps coming out of the bars in the vicinity. Breakfast service was at times spotty - with difficulty finding someone to serve coffee.

Absolutely superb 6 days at the Cape Heritage Hotel. The room was just divine, and steeped in history. Loved the authentic shutters! Breakfast was also delicious. What makes the hotel truly special is the staff. Such lovely genuine people. A bit shout out goes to Bamford and Sam! Cape Town itself is really interesting. Make sure you take advantage of the free walking tours recommended by the hotel. The hotel is in a great location, which comes with some noise. Especially First Thursday! Nothing a pair of earplugs didn’t sort out! A 5* stay overall. We will be back!!

Great location in the city, walking distance to the city centre, VA Waterfront and the DHL Stadium and easy access to all the Cape Town trips. The historic hotel was beautflly presented, with great artwork and our room was very spacious with a great bed and super shower. A cute courtyard bar was nice and the breakfast excellent. It was very clean, everything worked, WiFi was good and staff incredibly friendly and helpful.

We loved the property but as stated on the hotel details, it’s a city centre hotel and can be very noisy especially at weekends that could go on to 4am. Bring earplugs (they provide them as well.)

The STAFF need an applause, especially Sam, Hilton and Damford(hope I got his name right), they were so helpful, caring and went over thr top to make sure we were fine and took carw of our needs especially for our little one. The location is a vibe, the courtyard is lovely to to sit during the day or evening to unwind, have a drink ans just chill. Overall a lovely atmosphere and great stay.

Would have been nice to have a good roof top situation, as the Jacuzzi area was not really nice and had clothes drying and stuff.

1) Super friendly and helpful staff 2) Artsy, funky decoration and interior 3) Location is quite central with a fair amount of cafe's and restaurants around and the two tourist bus lines just two blocks away. It's not a particularly pretty part of town, but it is a useful homebase for exploring it. Perfect for those who are a bit tired of hotel chains. This one has plenty of charm and character. We'll remember it fondly.

Some people online complained about noise as there is a restaurant right outside of the window. However, we had absolutely no issues with that, as it was too cool at the time of our stay for people to sit outside. Still, if you arrive during high season, you may want to consider a room that isn't close to that area.

We ALWAYS stay at Cape Heritage when we go to Cape Town (we are from the USA). This visit was our 5th. It is a very centrally located heritage hotel near top-rated restaurants (several literally right across the street), shopping and many sights (the colorful Bo Kaap neighborhood is just around the corner). The staff are phenomenally friendly and helpful. The breakfasts are very tasty. The rooms are beautifully decorated. There is a courtyard with several restaurants including a place called Jerry's Burger Bar which serves a selection of amazing burgers at very reasonable prices. For those who self drive, there is a guarded parking lot just around the corner). We find it WAY nicer than staying in the ultra touristy Waterfront area.

Nothing at all.
