Lovely stay at Zest Boutique Hotel. The staff were wonderful and very helpful. The location is quiet with a view of Signal Hill and Table Mountain from the roof. Walking distance to the V&A (felt safe during the day) and a quick and cheap Uber in the evening.

Finishing of Cape Town in a nice way :)

All was good and comfortable. Room a bit small if staying for more than 3 days but the room we stayed in had a balcony with a new view of the mountains. Area where hotel is located is quite and staff were all very nice and offered a service with a smile.

Fantastic staff good breakfast nice location clean

My wife and I went to Zest for five nights for our anniversary and wish we stayed longer! The stay was absolutely fantastic with staff going above and beyond their duty to make us feel like family. The rooms are very clean and good size and the view from room also fantastic. The breakfast was so delicious and many vegetarian and non-vegetarian options including fresh fruits and yogurt daily- which made my day. The location is really good, very close to V&A waterfront which made it easy for us to go to tourist sites and walk in a safe neighborhood- we loved the neighborhood it is not too loud and same time has good restaurants and shops. Also, the hotel has the best concierge and tours organized, we made full use of it for wineries and peninsula tours which are fairly priced and the driver Ismael was great. The reception staff, breakfast and catering staff, managers, cleaning staff all so polite and accomodating to us- five star for sure. We will definitely come back to the hotel and recommend for all.

Gorgeous, sustainable and friendly place to stay

We really enjoyed our stay with Zest, from lovely welcoming staff who greeted us with an ice cold drink when we were sweaty from a long plane ride, to a delicious breakfast, to a very comfortable room. The hotel is eco-conscious too so it's even better to know your stay is doing good by people and planet.
