Radisson Blu Hotel Waterfront, Cape Town

The location of this property is superb. I stayed in a 2-bedroom suite on the 2nd floor and the room was beautiful and spacious with everything you need. Very clean, beds were comfy and bathrooms were perfect. My friend stayed in a superior room which was equally lovely. Staff at check in was very friendly and efficient. I had ordered a cheese platter on arrival which was quite enjoyable. reasons why I did not give this property a perfect score: First, we had gone out for the day and when we came back there was water dripping from the ceiling and all over the floor. We noticed this when my 4yr old slipped on the water and fell on her back. We turned lights on and water was just dripping down. Maintenance attended to it (quite quickly I must say). We were told sometimes the aircon gets blocked and it overflows. Water was suctioned from the aircon and we waited for housekeeping to come mop the floor. If maintenance is aware that aircon has issues then it should be serviced and checked regularly so guests don’t come back and find hotel room under water and posing danger to kids. I had booked a second room for my friend and her daughter. When we checked out I was charged for mini bar services which they didn’t use. The hotel (Nandi) promised to contact me and credit me. I have not heard from them 5 days later Restaurant staff is amazing. Breakfast is a big spread and we enjoyed it. Dinner was also good (a la carte). I’ll stay there again hopefully with better experience

I chose this hotel due to good reviews and it was the right choice. Don't be fooled by small entrance, the hotel is modern and clean in excellent location right by the bay. View is spectacular and we paid about $100 more for 2 bedroom suite. This suite has 2 king beds and L shape sofa in living room, has dining area, full kitchen and wrap around balcony. It's worth to get 2 bedroom for a family. Shuttle runs every hour to waterfront, 10 minutes ride and you must go and have dinner and shop. Victoria mall is a regular shopping mall but there is one souvenir shop by end of entrance 2. Cost for room is very reasonable and you will love everything about this hotel, highly recommend and we stay only in 5 star hotels.
