    Nothing at all.

    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. The staff is like family and all are so helpful.

    It’s so charming. Built in the 1700’s but the property is up to date and beautiful. The place is clean, the shower has lots of pressure. It’s close to everything. When traveling, we always like to familiarize ourselves with the Hop On Hop Off. The main stop is just two blocks away.

    Renovating the room but it has a kind of old charm again it depends on the room you have

    Charming hotel but it all depends on the room. The whole place is a bit old but the staff is great and location perfect if you look to be in city centre

    The rooms pick up some street noise (cars, loud pedestrians, etc), but it is not so significant as to outweigh all the positives.

    This was our 4th stay at the Cape Heritage Hotel in 3 years. We are from the US and always pick Cape Heritage because of its central location in Cape Town near wonderful shops and world-class restaurants, its amazingly friendly, caring and helpful staff, its cozy rooms and its great breakfasts. They just renovated some of the rooms and bathrooms so they have a very crisp and clean feel. There is also a secure parking lot just around the corner. Oh, and did we mention Jerry's Burgers just inside the courtyard? Mmmmm...if you like great burgers, fries and Greek salad, well you do not have to look any further!

    - Felt that the room door needs a seal. We had read reviews that the location is a little noisy (nearby restaurants). But, what bothered us was the light seeping through the hallway into our room the whole night and that all noise (talking etc) could be heard very clearly. Something a simple door seal could fix

    - Staff (helpful and friendly) - Decor (quirky art collection) - Location (well located for key attractions and nearby restaurants) - Size of room, comfy robes and appreciates the unlimited filtered water

    Didn’t bother us but could be a bit noisy if you’re staying on the outer edge of hotel - old features means single glazed windows.

    Great rooms, all different and interesting. Lovely staff, really helpful and kind. Well located. Good breakfast. Parking really convenient.

    Having to check out

    Location was great just a few minutes walk to the hop on bus, the staff are FABULOUS, lots of places to eat close by. Breakfast is top notch and the mini bar was reasonably priced, had a wonderful 5 night stay and felt right at home. Definitely wouldn't have had as much fun if I had picked a different hotel. Great market just down the street too. Couldn't fault anything in either the room or service, was sad to leave.
