Beautiful room
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

This was a full on 5 star experience. The staff particularly Manfred and David were so kind and would always be available to carry / move my bags before I could even touch the car door handle. The food was flavourful with so many options . The breakfast was luxury , included oysters and sparkling wine. The view at the deck was superb. I loved my stay.

This is our preferred hotel in Cape Town. It never disappoints. The location is perfect—view, proximity to beach, esplanade for walks, a buzzing Sunday market. There’s a shuttle to the Waterfront itself. Parking if you rent a car. I prefer to use Uber if necessary but there is a hotel car service. The staff crown it all. It was wonderful to see some faces and meet new faces—I hope the new stay. It’s what makes the place ‘work.’ You are recognized when you return, even after a long (COVID-era imposed) absence. On a special note: we arrived after the city had experienced a week of transportation disruptions that put pressure on staff. They were impeccable and professional when, in truth, they must have been like everyone else in the city, under considerable strain. This staff would be why we return. The staff were why we began returning, and why we became Radisson fans. Thank you to all the staff at Radisson Blu Waterfront.
