Breakfast was excellent, cooked fresh to order. Location was also excellent, walkable to many bars restaurants shops and tourist attractions. Great fridge in room for cold drinks plus tea/coffee making facilities. Nice ensuite bathroom and the hotel staff were friendly and helpful.

All good

The staff are excellent and very helpful and super friendly. The price is great value for the location. The front facing rooms have great views. The bed was very comfortable and one of the best I have experienced in a while. Just remember your stay in a piece of history.

Nothing

This place is perfectly located in Simon’s Town, waking distance to many restaurants and a short walk from Boulders Beach. The balcony and courtyard are perfect for enjoying the weather and people watching. The breakfast is simple but nice. And the people are very sweet!!

It’s right on the main street and the walls are thin. so if you’re looking for absolute peace and quiet, you might like something further up in the mountains of Simon’s Town.

The bed was excellent, the staff were very helpful and friendly. The location was central to everything in Simon Town and the natural attractions in the area.

Daily rate a little high !

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and spacious. We really liked sitting on the balcony enjoying the view. The breakfast was perfect.

This was an upgrade to another property owned by the same person. Definitely better than Central Hotel and Guest House

The fact that we had to demand the rooms we booked. They kept insinuating that Booking.com got it wrong. The upgraded facility's was better than the original property booked.

In the centre of Simonstown which facilitated getting around. All restaurants within a short walking distance.

Old fashioned , historic , and nice friendly staff . Nice breakfast

Baboons on veranda for a few minutes.

The Central Hotel has a fascinating past, which is told on the hotel’s lovely coffee mugs, one of which I bought as a souvenir. The room’s décor is in keeping with its 127-year-old history as a hotel, with a proper dressing table, cheval mirror and charming rattan chairs. However, the facilities are modern and the service is excellent. I am allergic to eggs and mushrooms, which usually downscales my English breakfast but not here. Shima, in charge of guest relations, and Ntombi, in charge of the kitchen went out of their way to give me a delightful and large breakfast every morning. The New Year was rung in with a chorus of ships’ horns in the harbour, which I viewed from the balcony. The hotel also has a set of rooms around a pleasant courtyard. Highly recommended.

It feels like you’re stepping back in time for a day or two. The older design and interior is so charming. Location itself is great, and it’s close to various restaurants and coffee shops. Shami and the other staff members were so helpful and friendly - you guys are a great addition to the hotel!

The slightly negative aspect to the location being in the main street is traffic noise. Also, and I hope the owners see this, why put up the horrid, very cheap looking, plastic prints with Chinese writing on the walls? It honestly gives a very tacky feel to the room. I understand if they want to portray some of their Chinese heritage, which is in no way a problem, but do it more tastefully. It clashes awfully with the entire building and interior. A more antique-looking frame isn’t too expensive, and opt for a nicer looking print or painting etc to put up with the message.
