    comfy room
    great location
    limited breakfast
    noise from outside

    The grey hotel was amazin! Loved the comfy room, especially the balcony for work vibes. The location is perfect, close to restaurants and sights like the v&a waterfront. Rooftop pool was a nice bonus, even if small :)

    The breakfast was limited and could open earlier. The windows let in way too much noise from outside.

    cozy dining area
    rooftop bar
    vibrant waterfront
    minor bathroom issue
    noise from guests

    Staying here was a delight, especially because everything is within a short walk. I appreciated the cozy dining area where I enjoyed a fresh breakfast before heading out to explore the nearby Bo-Kaap Museum and the vibrant waterfront. The rooftop bar was a real highlight. it offered breathtaking views while indulging in some tasty bar snacks. The only minor issue was that the bathroom door in my room needed a bit of fixing, but it didn't take away from the overall experience.

    great stay with wonderful staff but minor noise issues

    The hospitality team here stands out. Every interaction felt authentic, and they went out of their way to. The room offered an ample space with an comfortable bed, ensuring a restful night's sleep. The mountain view from the rooftop was amazing.

    While the location is ideal for exploring, we found that the noise from the nearby bars could be a bit intrusive during the night.

    play area

    The staff here are friendly and accommodating. My family and I spent our days exploring the nearby attractions, including some fantastic dining spots. I especially loved grabbing coffee on the wraparound veranda. Traveling with a small baby.

    My kids wished for a small play area for them to enjoy.

    comfortable bed
    great balcony views
    fresh atmosphere
    bright mornings
    lacking window coverings

    I stayed in a Beautiful Double Room with Balcony for 4 nights, and it was really comfy! The bed was just perfect. Plus, I loved having breakfast with views from the balcony. The lighting in the room was nice, but I wish it had better window coverings for those bright mornings. But really, the vibes were great and everything felt fresh.

    perfect service
    comfortable bedding
    unique charm
    noise concern

    The Grey impressed with its unique charm and perfect service. The spacious Standard Queen Room featured comfortable bedding and lovely linen. The staff demonstrated really good hospitality was good, while the rooftop bar provided enjoyable views of Table Mountain and a cozy atmosphere. Breakfast offered good Spanish tapas, and the location was convenient, surrounded by art galleries and diverse dining options.

    The noise from nearby bars may be a concern for light sleepers.
