This is our third stay at the 2-Inn-1 and cannot recommend it highly enough. I don’t think you could get better service anywhere, but we mainly keep on returning as we feel part of the family. If you think of something you would like or desire on holiday, you can rest assured the 2-Inn-1 team have already thought of it.

The hotel itself is an old characterful Victorian house with pool and sun terrace. The bedrooms are all beautifully furnished and spotlessly clean. There is no such thing as a good or bad room here. Having stayed in several of the rooms, they all have their individual charms. Breakfast is spectacular and caters for everyone’s taste. There is a colourful array of fruit and cold breakfast items, a cooked menu and daily special. The apple pancakes are to die for. Thank you Vivien ! If you are worried about the water situation in Cape Town, yes it is a daily challenge but your holiday will be unaffected by this. There is enough water to drink, shower and swim. All you are asked to do is collect the shower water while it’s heating up in a thoughtfully provided bucket. It is then put to good use in the garden. Meals are not provided in the evening, but you can order a cheese or charcuterie platter if you don’t want to go out. A nice selection of salads and sandwiches are available at lunchtime.

If you haven’t visited Cape Town before the 2-Inn-1 team will look after you and help you with absolutely everything you need to enjoy the Cape Town experience. The staff are charming and will help you plan days out and make restaurant reservations and go the extra mile to make your holiday memorable. During our stay we visited the much acclaimed Silo Hotel where we enjoyed fantastic cocktails on the roof terrace (booking essential) but it is the 2-Inn-1 where we will continue to stay when in Cape Town because it is equally 5*. Congratulations to Kris, Klaus, Steffi and their team for making their guests feel so valued and special.

Being honest, it was the 4th time we were there for about 11 days, so we are a little bit biased against the hotel (otherwise we would have chosen another one). Coming in late in the evening, we had a very warm welcome by Kenneth, the night manager. He, like many of the staff, are working here for years. Having some beer, then we got our room, which was a little bit small but comfortable, view on the street as well as Table mountain, Lions head and signal hill. Everything works, also in the bathroom, also the room maintenance is fine. Breakfast is influenced by the German origin of the guys running the hotel, but you will get hot dishes as well, hand-made with love by the kitchen staff. We also had some laundry service which was fast. When we needed assistance eg for restaurant booking or anything else we got it, as also in the past. So we were very satisfied again, and truly come back in future for the 5th stay...
