  A grand old lady going to seed. The lifts are scary noisy. Not enough parking. Breakfast has a good selection but everything is stone cold. Tried three mornings and always cold food. No filter coffee available at breakfast! Coffee shop in lobby told us that they stayed open to eleven thirty but by ten they closed. Send you to main coffee shop to pay higher prices and then go back to the lobby to make the take away coffee ☹️ warm beer only in pub due to stock take. Very sad to see what used to be an icon slip to this level.

  If you are for old fashioned building and for memories, this is the right place for you. It still have that old memories of the past. But coming to the rooms, haaaibo they are not art of the state. They don't have wifi in the rooms which was a turn off for me as I was on business trip and wanted to catch up my work. Again, the parking is terribly far since you have to go to the highest level to park - level 12. That's really bad. That is a killer to a business person. But the hospitality in restaurant was better...one lady was serving with passion as if she is the shareholder of the company. She made my breakfasts excellent on how she attends to the clients. She deserve a good reward.

  Old hotel that is conveniently located near the CBD and not too far from the beaches. Friendly and helpful staff. Parking area is in dire need for a refurbishment and a new coat of paint. Breakfast area reminds one of the Victorian era! Need to refurbish and modernize to make it more pleasant. The reception area requires even more attention photographs of previous country and provincial leaders are displayed and all the clocks do not work... poor front office marketing and and eye sore!

  Heard such bad things because of location. But nothing could stand against this amazing city centre gem. Impeccable service that feels personalized. Staff are helpful when you need them. It's like walking into another dimension of colonial south Africa, a reimagined interpretation of European opulence with African charm. I can't say enough, I wish I could stay here forever
