Old Cape Quarter - Cape 8 Collection

Excellent property that truly felt like a home away from home. Everything was thoughtfully arranged, convenient, and handy. The host was extremely prompt, helpful, and accommodating, and the housekeeping staff was excellent as well — they kept the place spotless and even folded the clothes we had left in the dryer.

There is honestly nothing we disliked about the property. The only small point is that there was no air conditioning in the living room, but a table fan was provided and, since we visited in September, it wasn’t a problem for us. Overall, a superb property and highly recommended!

The owner was incredibly kind, thoughtful and supportive. Nothing was too much trouble. The apartment was spotlessly clean, modern and offered a high degree of comfort. The 2 bdrm 2 bath apartment included a large TV with a wide variety of channels, a washer & dryer, dishwasher, stove, fridge, microwave, coffee maker, electric kettle , toaster and cupboards filled with all the dishes, glasses & pots & pans that any guest would need. Our stay included daily maid service. The location was central with a Spar grocery store across the street. The complex offered several layers of security adding to our overall feeling of safety. I would not hesitate to recommend staying at this Cape Town property.

As someone who usually stays in 4 and 5-star hotels, I was genuinely impressed by this apartment. We stayed in the Deluxe Two-Bedroom Apartment with a balcony, and it was beautifully done — stylish, cosy and finished to a really high standard. You can tell the host has put a lot of thought into every detail. The kitchen is very well equipped with high-quality appliances and everything is clearly labelled. There are also detailed manuals explaining how to use everything, from the electric blinds and appliances to recommendations for restaurants, tours and grocery deliveries. There were plenty of extra towels and quality toiletries, so you never felt like you were running out of anything. I also loved that many of the products were locally sourced. And a special mention has to go to the GHD hairdryer and straighteners — they definitely made my day! The apartment is such a relaxing place to be. It’s not often I stay somewhere and am happy just sitting with a cup of tea, enjoying the view and doing nothing. It really feels like a home away from home. The building has 24-hour security and parking, which was reassuring, and the host was always available by phone if we had any questions. The V&A Waterfront is around a 15–20 minute walk away, with plenty of trendy shops and restaurants nearby. I would recommend asking someone for the best walking route, as Google Maps took us down a road that didn’t feel particularly safe. As with most of Cape Town, I also wouldn’t recommend walking alone late at night. Overall, a beautiful, comfortable and thoughtfully designed apartment. The attention to detail really makes it stand out, and I would definitely stay again.

Location, beautifully decorated and Belinda was friendly and helpful

Shelf cupboard not properly supported (only had two pins underneath to hold them up) crashed and fell onto my finger. power point on one side only, created a lot of issues for my partner and I as we both sleep with medical devices It’s winter and two light (chenille) throws were the only blankets provided WiFi didn’t work properly from the bedroom, we both had meetings so wasn’t much choice one of us had to work from there. It was challenging and exhausting needing to repeat myself as calls kept freezing or dropping out The worst part: we were asked for the car reg which we provided but it didnt work once. Forced to take tags for entry which then was more admin for us to return because nobody was around at checkout If 5 star hotel prices are charged then the experience should match. This was not worth the stress and being cold at night. It looked so beautiful on the pics but sadly the experience and nearly losing a finger changed thr entire experience
