Luxury hotel with great location
It is always a pleasure to stay at a Taj Hotel. The service and restaurants at the Taj Cape Town were outstanding. We had a stunning view of Table Mountain and Lions Head from our room, that even had a small balcony. The Centre City location next to the Company Gardens was excellent. Our first day we walked through the lovely gardens and enjoyed the Cape Town Museum of Natural History. We also took guided walking tours from the St George’s pedestrian mall right behind the hotel, one history of Capetown and one on Apartheid, walk to freedom. Bo Cape, with the colorful painted houses was right up the street.

Breakfast service was a bit relaxed for my liking but that's probably because I never leave enough time!

From check in to check out we had a wonderful time ! A grand breakfast buffett and even complimentary dinners but we weren't able to take advantage of that as we made other dinner plans. Our room in the tower was incredible looking right at Table Mountain and they even light it up at night ! Easy to get around with Uber Black ...great location

My wife and I had the most amazing and luxurious stay at the Taj. From the moment we walked in, Rita on reception met us with the most incredible standard of help and support. The room was exactly as we expected and more … the views (wow) and the comfort of the bed and the stunning bath with views - just wow. The bar, and restaurant staff again, we were blessed by all that we met with. I can’t name everyone but would like to make special mentions to Frank and Widaap. An incredible experience and we will definitely be back.
