Wifey and I spent three nights here prior to a group motorbike tour. It is a modern, nicely decorated hotel in a multi, step level, style going down the face of a steep hill overlooking Cape Town. Reception is at the top level with a comfy sitting area dominated by a piano. Beyond that is a meeting room with the highest viewpoint. There is also a small gated car park accessed from Military Road. On the next level down are the 300 numbered rooms and the dining area which has the view alongside an outside terrace/eating area. The 200 numbered rooms share the next floor down with the kitchen and the lowest floor houses the 100 rooms plus access to the lower pedestrian gate that opens onto the road at the upper end of the Bo-Kaap district. This gate iand access to it from the hotel is locked and staff need to let you out. Beware if you order an Uber or Scooteroo to deliver to the Signal Hill Lodge this is where they will turn up so always quote the Military Road address. We were in Room 205 with the view. We had an issue with the shower screen that was fixed as soon as we reported it and they helped us with the room safe when Wifey locked it wrongly. Beyond that the room had a double bed with a foot either side and two feet at the foot at the foot of it. The French window opening on to our small but private balcony was to the right of the bed. The wardrobe and desk are to the left and at the foot of the bed was the Tea table and TV on the wall above it and the left to right a small recantgular bathroom. With a shower, sink and toilet. All in all not bad but but not very big considering the price. My biggest criticism is with breakfast and the super slow staff who couldn't get our requests right, took one or two orders at a time, took them to the kitchen and eventually returned. It was a complete shambles. Don't pay for it. Eat elsewhere else.

Rooms and amenities are comfy, good quality and aesthetically pleasing, Professional, efficient, extremely pleasant atmosphere created by the staff under Peter Jafta's leadership and style of operating - everything worked like clockwork with a smile. Special requests accommodated with no fuss, advice on destinations, everything to make our stay enjoyable. Naomi is super energetic and on the ball. People obviously take pride in their work.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel is on the same road as the Signal Hill gun so you are quite high up above the city. Our room had a balcony with a table and 2 chairs where we could sit and view Cape Town.The city is so pretty at night. The room was a standard hotel size. We were only there for the one night. Did not use any of the facilities. We were able to park the car inside the premises instead of on the street.

Linda

Great location, very central to everything in Cape Town, lovely views. Room was very nicely laid out and beds were very comfortable plenty of space and luxurious. Staff were very friendly and accommodating and went out of their way to help with anything we needed. Breakfast was satisfactory, unfortunately there was a taxi strike on at the time so some of the food items on the menu weren't available. Would definitely stay there again.

Judy

The location is stunning, the staff is friendly and helpful. Great value for money booked 1 night and then extended by another night. The pool is an extra bonus the water was clean and refreshing. There is an elevator but note you must use stairs to the pool. The views from the balcony are breathtaking.
