I had an unforgettable stay at this charming hotel! The staff made us feel like family, and the breakfast spread was absolutely delightful. However, I was disappointed to find out there were no elevators, and I had some issues with the spa's availability during my stay. Overall, though, it was a relaxing experience with beautiful rooms and a lovely atmosphere.

I had a breathtaking experience at this boutique hotel. The beautiful exterior and well-kept gardens set a charming tone right from the start. My room had a stunning view of the pool area, and I found the accommodations to be quite spacious and clean. The staff was incredibly welcoming and eager to help, ensuring everything went smoothly during my stay. However, the dining options were a bit limited, and the pool water was rather chilly. Overall, it's a lovely place but could benefit from some improvements in dining and pool temperature.

We had a fantastic stay at the Banksia hotel! The warm reception and luxurious room made for a perfect weekend getaway. The views from the spacious balcony were breathtaking, and the serene atmosphere of the indoor pool and gardens allowed us to truly unwind. However, the breakfast wasn't included in our booking, which would have added even more value to our stay.

My stay at Banksia was quite memorable with its unique charm and inviting ambiance. The rooms were lovely and the entire hotel was impeccably clean. The staff went out of their way to ensure my comfort, though my experience at the spa was far from ideal. While the pool area was delightful and the breakfast was enjoyable, I did have concerns over my room's window security. Overall, it's a great boutique choice in Cape Town, especially for those looking for a quiet retreat while being close to attractions.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel in Cape Town. The staff were incredibly helpful, and I truly appreciated the personalized service they offered. The rooms were spacious, and we enjoyed the breakfast each morning, despite some hiccups. However, my experience by the pool was less than ideal due to a lack of maintenance, which made it tricky for someone my age to navigate. Overall, I would definitely return if I come back to Cape Town.
