"I had a truly wonderful stay at Cape Diem Lodge. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel welcomed and cared for, and I’d especially like to highlight the night porter, who consistently went above and beyond to ensure I felt comfortable. His attentiveness and warmth made a big difference in my stay. The location was perfect—tucked away on a quiet, secluded street that gave me a sense of privacy, yet just a short walk to shops, the pier, and plenty of restaurants. I really appreciated...

Victoria and Alfred Hotel by NEWMARK

Victoria and Alfred Hotel by NEWMARK

10/10 Excellent
"Great room (spacious, clean, quiet) overlooking the square, fantastic staff (friendly, helpful, courteous), impressive breakfast (buffet and cooked), and ‘can’t be beaten’ location (in the heart of the V&A Waterfront, seconds from good restaurants and bars). What’s there not to like !? We’ll be back."
