Nice location for a stay in Cape Town. Close to several restaurants and the piano bar next door was nice for a late night cocktail. Staff was very friendly. I would stay here again when visiting Cape Town.

Location was great. Nice supermarket close by and laundry down the street. Close to port with Uber being cheap. Hotel is quirky with narrow stairs and our room was small but made do for a few nights as area was safe and staff were friendly.

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is clean, has a nice artsy vibe. The staff are super friendly and helpful. The location of the hotel cannot be better. Most things we wanted to see were 10 to 20mns walking distance, and the neighborhood of the location was beautiful, with plenty of coffee shops, small boutiques and colorful houses.

Simple and straight forward sleep over. Coffee and tea facilities in room would be great

Very service-oriented staff in a convenient place
Staff was polite and beyond amazing. They gave us good advices on the safety of the De Waterkant area (generally safe to walk around at night as there are a lot of security staff stationed around). Since we stayed in winter their Skybar and Pianobar was closed, but they had a breakfast area which served very tasty breakfast. There was also the Cape Quarter Lifestyle Village Mall nearby which had a SPAR supermarket which met all our needs. De Waterkant is one of the recommended place to stay in Cape Town if you want to be near the V&A Waterfront and CBD. The room which we stayed (Room 10) was also spacious and had enough room for 2 people. I strongly recommend this hotel.

Lovley stay at the Grey Hotel
The hotel is lovely but you can not be disabled or over sized it has a nice atmosphere but we could have got more information from the reception about the restaurant and the surroundings. The breakfast could have some improvements but the staff was interested and fixed what ever problem you could have. The reception could have also informed that there are pool towels to borrow. Great close to the waterfront and the BooKap so nice area to stay in. Lovley restaurant and also other interesting places with good food
Suzana, 6-night trip

4/10 Fair

Disappointing for a "boutique " hotel. Lack of attention to detail and the feeling the management do not care about their guests. The staff were excellent: helpful and friendly.
