Staff were excellent, very pleasant and friendly. Everything was very clean, the staff provided ironing board when required and the vibe at the bar was great. Would stay here again when returning to the Dam.

Boutique Hotel La Belle Vue
Upon arrival, we were greeted by the nicest staff members. They remained pleasant throughout the entire stay. Loved the location. It was a short walk to everything we were wanting to do and the cafe directly beside the room was very convenient. The hotel itself was extremely noisy. We did not sleep ...
