Such a beautiful hotel run by very nice and helpful staff. I stayed here with my wife and son. We were looked after very nicely. I would like to thank everyone who made our stay very memorable. And to Taryn from reservation, she was amazing in sorting out the ideal suite for my family. Thank you very much Taryn.

We visited the President in Cape Town and stayed for 10 days. The property is very pretty, and the rooms were spacious. The staff was very welcoming and eager to help. They had security which kind of made me feel secure, but im not sure how secure it really was. There were a few scary incidents outside the hotel but only a few blocks out. They said this wasn’t the norm, which Im not sure I agree with. Either way the hotel managers were very helpful in resolving any issues we had. The hotel was a great fit for my family, and we will be back again. The breakfast was really very good and made it super easy to feed my kids in the morning. It was part of their routine while away. There was a great coffee shop, market, good restaurants and laundry mat just around the corner and the hop on hop off bus was also just at the corner which was very convinient. Beach is just 2 blocks down although I wouldn’t call it a Beach more of seaside boardwalk.

Thoroughly enjoyed the facilities of this big-city establishment. From the buzz at the superb breakfast to the laid back pool bar, and the helpful concierge staff, all our needs were met. Would recommend The President Hotel to anyone visiting Capetown

A fantastic stay at the President Hotel. My husband and I stayed here for 4 nights as part of our Honeymoon and would highly recommend this hotel in Cape Town. From check in to check out everything was faultless and if there were any issues it was a quick call and it would get resolved. The staff were amazing. Everyone was very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Breakfast buffets were amazing and the evening meals were very good. We will definitely be returning.

A fabulous welcome from the staff at The President Hotel. From the moment we arrived, we enjoyed great service. Our spacious room overlooked the pool ( a little too fresh for my British bones!) and included a sofa area in which to relax. The breakfast and bar staff were especially welcoming. Thanks, guys. This is a perfect pitstop for a short Cape Town visit. It is a large hotel in Bantry Bay, a short drive from Cape Town’s hustle and bustle, but we enjoyed the promenade walks and local night life in Sea Point too. If you want boutique, try somewhere else. For two British tourists arriving on a late flight, The President pulled out all the stops to make our stay perfect.
