I stayed at President Hotel by myself for 2 nights. As a young woman, I can say that I felt very safe and comfortable. The hotel was very spacious and clean with all the amenities you can think of. I thoroughly enjoyed the buffet breakfast and sitting out and relaxing by the pool. The hotel was in very short walking distance to a wide variety of shops and restaurants. I would absolutely recommend this hotel and would be happy to come back one day!

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The bath needed maintenance and staff responded quickly. The hand and bath lotions need to be fixed properly as they were inconvenient to use. Overall our stay at the hotel was a great experience and will come back if our plans are to come to Cape Town again sometime in future.
