If your flight arrives late in the evening, this is your only option. It’s great because you can walk to it from the terminal. It’s like a Travelodge in the UK with more laid back staff and a the rooms are a bit more tired but clean. It’s a shorter walk back to car rental in the morning.

This is a basic airport hotel, good value for money but nothing fancy and the lack of elevator for luggage is a minus. Perfectly decent

For a budget Airport hotel, the rooms were good, the staff were very helpful, and breakfast was quite good and reasonably priced. A very good option for an overnight stop, close to the Cape Town Airport

Next time I'll find another option--clean but meh
There is NO AIRPORT SHUTTLE despite what the listing says. They send you a number that you can use to book. We took an uber which was fine. The aircon was so loud it was like being next to a plane engine so I slept with the window open. There's no elevator so if you're on floor 2 (as I was) you lug your stuff up and down the stairs. There is no bottle of water in the room, you have to use a vending machine or buy one from the restaurant. That is ridiculously cheap!! I'm a frequent traveller and not usually too picky but it was not a good stay. While the rooms are small and mostly clean, I'll explore other options next time.

The property was adequate. It was not competing with the Ritz, so good value for money. The staff were excellent and we enjoyed the meal in the dining room. The grounds however were very disappointing , full of rubbish and uninspiring. Many points for being close to the airport

Great staff, decent breakfast selections. Accessing the airport in Cape Town after hours is tricky. I suggest the hotel publish a map of how to get to CPT after hours when the closest access road gate is closed! Google maps was no help, guiding us to the employees parking lot where there is no access to departures!
