Radisson RED V&A Waterfront, Cape Town
Very hard bed. Sent us to the wrong room the first time. Staff seemed bothered that I insisted on getting what I paid for. Also didn’t receive the free bottle of wine I was supposed to get. I was hoping Radisson only sucked in the U.S. but I guess it’s universal.

Hotel Sky Cape Town
The V & E Waterfront is walkable from the hotel, but you do have to be aware of your surroundings.

The Onyx Apartment Hotel by NEWMARK
Overall it was quite good, but the sink drained very slowly, to the point that it was difficult to use. Also, the bedroom ventilation seems to be connected to the bathroom, so there was occasionally some odor.

AC Hotel by Marriott Cape Town Waterfront
It was friendly, clean, and a lot of amenities. It wasn’t as close to the V&A waterfront as we would have liked.
