    • WOW WOW WOW the best!!
    • The staff were friendly and very helpful with arranging drivers.
    • The staff was the best part. They helped us so much with tours and transfers even saving us from a last minute cancelation from Get your Tour Guide. Really recommend!

    Cons -

    • The location required being driven to all activities and dinners. We ventured out for a long walk to Sea Point but needed a ride back as we were told walking at night was unsafe.
    • Nothing I would stay again
    • No turndown service - would have been nice to return to the room with a special touch.

    10StefaniaPosted on: 3-27-2025

    Everything perfect so highly recommend this place to base yourself for a few days in CT. Wonderful staff (literally everyone), smiley, helpful, friendly. Amazing breakfast (I am a hotel owner myself and I don't get easily impressed: everything spot on and fresh, eggs benedict superb but every single dish we tasted was excellent. Nice outdoor and indoor dining area. Rooms was very good size, cleaning was excellent, bed very comfortable. Location for us worked very good, a few minutes walk to the V&A and many restaurants close by. Highly recommended!

    Nothing, everything was perfect.

    Staff and service at 'The Living Journey Coll' Hotels is always exceptional!

    While area was convenient it is surrounded by high rise buildings.

    Stunning staff - great hotel

    Zest is a fantastic hotel, the location and the wonderful staff right from airport pick up to being dropped off at cruise terminal days later were 5 star.Natale, Tatenda and Mercy were outstanding - Peter and Ishmal also great. We miss them all a total credit to the company.If only every hotel was as good as this the world would be a wonderful place?Thanks to all at Zest I miss a beer below the avocado and lime trees with the butterflies floating on the warm breeze.

    The accommodation is in an excellent location, with close proximity to the promenade and DHL Stadium. There is also a great selection of restaurants nearby.

    On our first night, our room flooded because the shower didn’t drain properly. This left my husband and me having to clean up the mess ourselves, as the night manager was ill-equipped to handle the situation. When we reported the issue the next day, we received only a curt apology and were told that, unfortunately, this happens due to the building’s layout.

    A small boutique hotel which was beautifully decorated in a modern style. All the staff were very friendly and made you feel safe and at home away from home immediately. The room I was booked in was very spacious, the linen fresh and clean, the bed super comfortable and had a great coffee machine. I had a view over the garden/pool area. At turn down time, there was always a small treat as a surprise, on the pillow. The breakfast was a mix of a small buffet style and the rest was a la carte. They had great gluten free pancakes! I felt pampered during my stay there!

    Not the hotel’s fault but next door were having some work done and it was noisy outside by the pool. Would have preferred both sides of the shower to have opaque glass for privacy, had I been sharing the room as the shower was within a glass cubicle within the room.

    Excellent location for us as we were going to a show at the DHL Stadium which was a 10 minute walk away. We could also easily walk to the Waterfront. Staff were excellent, extremely friendly and willing. Room was a good size with an enormous bed.

    Parking out front is limited to 4 cars although there is additional space further along the road. It was 36 degrees in Cape Town while we were there and while the aircon worked well, there was no fridge in the room to keep water cold.There is a small swimming pool in the garden area but not heated and in shadow most of the day so very cold.

    A very nice and comfortable hotel with very friendly staff.

    A little father away from V & A water front than expected. 20 mins walk.
