City Lodge Robben Island hotels

"Yes within 5-10 minutes walk "

"Very hard bed. Sent us to the wrong room the first time. Staff seemed bothered that I insisted on getting what I paid for. Also didn’t receive the free bottle of wine I was supposed to get. I was hoping Radisson only sucked in the U.S. but I guess it’s universal."

"There works are rude "

"Best staff and good ambiance. We saw NYE fireworks in our room. Amazing! Can't wait to go back"

"Excellent property with great staff, service and location."

"Overall it was quite good, but the sink drained very slowly, to the point that it was difficult to use. Also, the bedroom ventilation seems to be connected to the bathroom, so there was occasionally some odor."

"Easy access to waterfront and plenty of shopping and dining options "

"My stay at Holiday Inn was exceptional! The staff was amazing and friendly. The location was centrally located so I was able to get to where I needed to be with ease!"

"Overall, I was underwhelmed by my stay at this hotel, which is unfortunate because if not for my bad experiences with staff, I would stay here again. The cons: The staff at this hotel discriminates against their guest according to skin color. This is said not on the basis of 1 experience but several. As a young woman traveling alone, I shouldn't expect anything less than decorum from the male staff there and the receptionist. They offer preferential treatment to their white guests and disrespect single traveling women of color and strange because …. The staff are also people of color. Single women take caution at this hotel. I was disrespected twice by the front door staff. The shuttle driver would not let me on the shuttle after letting the white guests on because “I needed my name on the list” yet he had no idea if I was on the list or not. As I tried to get on, he’d dance around me to block me from entering. I was then told by one of them that “the hotel doesn’t let just anyone on the bus”. I was also looked at inappropriately by the doorman. The perks are that you are right next to a majestic beach, the restaurants inside the hotel offer you a beautiful view of the ocean and the sunset, the waiters and chefs and very kind. The food (esp. breakfast) is very good but the cost for breakfast was a rip-off. When I purchased my reservation, I was told breakfast would be $8 or about 120 rands at the time, when I went to breakfast, they charged me $18 or 300 rands instead. "
