My room was really neat and you couldn't hear any noise from outside. It had all I needed – a desk where I could work, an electric kettle for making hot drinks, and an electronic key card to easily get in and out 🔑.

The hotel's restaurant had a delicious à la carte menu that kept me well-fed during my stay. The room was spacious and comfortable, perfect for a relaxing trip. The location was central, making it easy to explore all the attractions in the city.

Oh, and let's not forget the charming smell of burnt cooking oil that permeated the entire hotel. Such a delightful aroma.

We had a great time at the hotel; the hotel is close to many interesting places, safe area, and city center but not so busy. The breakfast was delicious, and there were many options to choose from. The staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Hard to think of anything.

The room at Hollow On The Square City was spacious and comfortable, with a clean and functional bathroom. I loved being able to sleep with the windows open and enjoy the quietness of the pedestrian squares. The breakfast spread was diverse and offered a variety of healthy options including homemade bread, fruit, and eggs. The location was perfect for exploring Long Street and the convenient parking made it easy to start our excursions. I would highly recommend this hotel for a pleasant stay in Cape Town.
