Victoria & Alfred Hotel by NEWMARK

Celebrating 30 Years of Love at Victoria and Alfred Hotel, Newmark Cape Town. My wife and I chose the Victoria and Alfred Hotel by Newmark in Cape Town as the destination to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary, and what an excellent choice it was! Our stay from the 14th to the 21st of December was nothing short of remarkable. The hotel's location could not have been more ideal. We were enchanted by the convenience of having a mall just a stone's throw away. The area around the hotel is a food lover's paradise, with many restaurants to choose from. A highlight for us was the accessibility to the hop-on-hop-off bus service, with a stop just around the corner from the hotel. This made exploring Cape Town a breeze and allowed us to soak in the city's beauty and culture effortlessly

All A+. Staff MOST friendly, from cleaning staff to check-in, to doormen and concierge. Plus service staff at breakfast (which was exceptional) and laundry service all wonderful. Next time we’ll try to stay in a room bellow the 3rd floor, all of which have skylights instead of using the magnificent views! It seems a waste not to have used dormers in the roof instead of skylights, so that’s the only change I’d recommend.

Breakfast was SUPERB with all staff really friendly and GENUINLY pleased to greet and talk to you - despite being busy! Room exceeded expectations with wonderful separate toilet (a real plus when its not within the bathroom. Bathroom was incredible with large Shower AND bath AND twin basins. Room was superb with PLENTY of drawers and space to put everything. Higher priced hotel we have stayed in during previous stays couldn't match the storage facilities in the room. Most hotels we stay in are almost always very lacking in drawer space. Bed really comfy. Cleanliness really good. Fabulously appointed. Wonderfully centraly located hotel in the Piazza. Location couldn't be more perfect. Right in the center of Quayside. Easy walks to everywhere. Hop on/Hop of buses around the corner to get you to beaches, vineyards,..you name it. Sit and people watch or have an adventure and tandem paraglide over Cape Town for that "Wow" factor! All sightseeing tours just a walk away. Can't be beaten for location and accessibility. Hotel has views over the Piazza and of Table Mountain. Sit, eat and drink on the wonderful seating area (shaded with fantastic canopies that withstood the wind completely!) with table mountain as a background for photos. Waiting service fantastic as was the fabulous food. Wonderful seating area on quayside. If you want a change there are dozens of restaurants am few steps away, as there are shops et al. Five Star rating plus - GREAT value for money. Could write a book!

The location was great! Right next to the waterfront mall. We chose the loft room, the room faces table mountain and the sea, it was beautiful both in the morning and at night. The room was big! Bathroom was big too! Staffs were friendly and helpful.

One of the rooms was large and spacious with a longe. Excellent. The other wasn’t as large but spacious enough. The beds were amazing. Great nights sleep.
