Hotels Near Nautilus Park in Cape Town

I truely enjoy the homely welcome feeling. Auriol and her staff made us feel at home. I almost forgot im staying at a guest house. After a long flight it was so nice to be fedge on time by Auriol and then walked into a crisp clean room. Exellent service indeed. Will remommend the guest house to anyone

I had a January 2024 conference at Stellenbosch Business School, and our Association gave a great rate at this hotel (only 1230 ZAR, including all taxes). At the current USD exchange rate, that was only $65. Because I didn't want to spend a lot of time commuting back and forth for those conference days, and because our conference also paid for the shuttle bus between the conference hotels and the conference venue, I decided to book this hotel for two nights. There are only a handful of written/detailed reviews in the past 4 years here on TA, and so I want to add mine here. (A note to Bonvoy members: Do note that you only get one ENC per 2 nights stayed. If in doubt, feel free to google ”Protea and ENC”...) Here are the pros: (1) The price is indeed cheap. (2) The staff is very kind. (3) The breakfast is good enough, with a few different kinds of sausages, a few different kinds of cereal, a few different kinds of bread/pastry, a few different kinds of fruit; and a couple different kinds of juice. (Bonvoy members: Platinum and above gets you free breakfast buffet.) (4) The on-site restaurant's 'a la carte' is OK enough if you're hungry, but I wouldn't have two dinners in a row there. The menu is not extensive, and also my pasta was a bit overcooked. (5) The room does have a small safe. Here are the cons: (1) Half of the hotel's rooms are just 15m from the highway. On a Sunday night, you're gonna hear a lot of road noise. It was the kind of noise that my earplugs couldn't block very well. If you scroll through the pictures here on TA, you'll see some pictures of that traffic. Those pictures are basically taken *from the room's window*. The cars are really that close! So if you are a light sleeper, and you care about sleep, this hotel is basically not for you. (2) Exactly half of the rooms are on the ground floor... meaning that just about any hoodlum could readily break the glass window of your room and enter if they wanted to. If that thought gives you anxiety, then I'd think twice before booking this hotel. (3) In the evening and late night (after ~9pm), I couldn't reach any front desk staff via the room's phone. (4) In the pictures, it looks like the room is carpeted. I don't think most of the room's are carpeted; my room #145 had a wood laminate floor, and it was pretty filthy. I mean, housekeeping doesn't appear to mop the floors very well, if at all. There are no slippers provided, so on Night #2, I put one of the bathroom towels on the floor and waddled/shimmied around on top of the towel to keep my feet clean. (5) I have Titanium Marriott status, and on Tuesday morning, they wouldn't grant me any kind of late check-out. I had to check out by 11am. They told me that there would be a 300 ZAR penalty per hour, if I checked out after that. (6) There's really nothing within walking distance; go ahead and take a look at the neighborhood in Google Maps, there's nothing to do or see if you have no car. (7) There are

The hotel was perfectly located in the heart of Cape Town, easily accessible, clean and the staff were all very friendly and accomodating for all our requests. The rooms are of good size, we ended up not eating purely cause we rested so well. Quiet area. Outside the hotel we took some beautiful pics and had dinner at some of the restaurants and watched the rugby.I will definitely stay here again

The hotel is in a good area, very close to the airport and convenient. There was striking when we were there, so the hotel was a little understaffed and our room was bot ready when we arrived, but the staff were very apologetic and friendly all way round. I’ll definitely stay there again.

Lovely stay at Newlands Peak Aparthotel. Quiet and clean location. The apartment itself is very modern and has everything you need. Everything looked brand new! The swimming pool on the rooftop is absolutely breathtaking. Very relaxing. Spacious place on the rooftop to workout and braai. Thank you for a great stay!

Absolute bliss! We had a superb time as family. Excellent all round service! Wayne and his breakfast team sealed the deal. Scrumptious, hearthy, most superb breakfast! Friendliest staff to welcome you in the morning! Well done, Southern Sun Newlands! We will surely see you again.

This is my fourth visit to this beautiful hotel. Pam, David and Faraaz were most welcoming and efficient at the front desk. The rooms are spacious, clean and nicely appointed. The mattress was perfect...really good condition. Breakfast is full and served buffet style in the old Cape Dutch Manor House. There is a good array of cold and hot. Amanda at the egg and pancake station is warm and friendly. Funiwe, Ashley, Royston and Gail are all super attentive to your breakfast needs. You will need a car (free parking on site) or you need to uber as it is not near public transport...but is very well located near all the major onramps and so getting anywhere is quick and easy if you're driving. I love this place. It is my go to whenever I am in Cape Town

The apartment is spacious, clean and luxurious. Lovvvvvve the bathrooms. I had a very relaxing stay at the Residences at Crystal Hotel. The staff are friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet was refreshing and had a wide selection of foods. The location is convenient, close to Canal Walk which we walked to often to buy whatever we needed to make our stay more enjoyable and visiting Hillsong Church opposite the road was an amazing experience.
