The hotel is quaint and charming. The room was lovely and clean. We did not rate it a five because there was excessive noise from either employees or visitors who were talking with reception, and the noise carried up the courtyard to rooms. Service was excellent, especially Blessing. She took care of us. We would definitely recommend because of location, courteous, helpful staff members, and the beautiful room that we had.

Friendly and caring manager! Great location, close to restaurants, coffee shops, shopping mall and transportation. Room was on the small side, the bed was comfortable and very clean! It’s ideal for solo or couples. I would highly recommend it.

Great, quirky little hotel with rooftop pool bar accessed up a spiral staircase. Very helpful with a courtesy room the freshen up on the evening of our departure. One word of warning though, don't been lulled into walking far from the hotel, the surrounding streets and the walk to the quayside are full of lowlifes out to grab jewellery (my wife was mugged and the police weren't interested). Look after yourselves and leave your valuables in the room safe!

Friendly greeting at check in. Very helpful Receptionists who offered to book Ubers etc. Lovely boutique room. Rooftop bar, pool, seating with views of Table top mountain. We had bed and breakfast, nice menu and everything cooked fresh and tasty. The Grey is a 15 min walk from the V&A Waterfront with restaurants and shops along with boat trips. Totally recommend this hotel.

Stayed at the Grey hotel in february for 5 nights. The hotel is small and in a lovely area, approximately 10 to 15 minute walk to the V & A . The rooms are clean and comfortable and have a fridge which was a bonus. The rooftop terrace and pool was lovely, it's small but they've made the best use of the space available. The main reason I've given this hotel 5 stars is the staff, they were all so helpful and friendly especially "M" nothing was ever to much trouble, she helped organise so many trips, ubers etc for us and all with a smile. On checking out of the hotel I inadvertently left my husbands wallet in the safe, and because we'd gone through immigration to board a cruise we weren't allowed to leave the ship, after a few frantic phone calls yes you've guessed it, "M" personally drove down to the port to deliver the wallet to the port agent! What a star and we will be eternally grateful for her kindness and dedication. We will definately return when visiting Capetown again a lovely hotel with great staff Thank you again

Fantastic 2 night stay at the Grey at the end of an overall brilliant holiday cruising from Mauritius. Our stay was made special by a warm welcome and attentive receptionist The sky bar served wonderful Tapas and tasty cocktails on our first night and the ambiance was perfect looking out across both Table Mountain and down towards the harbour. The hotel was only a 15 minute safe walk to the V&A waterfront Overall a brilliant stay with attentive hosts and super clean rooms and tasty breakfasts Thankyou for looking after us. We will stay again if ever we return to Cape Town

We were going to just rent an apartment but my friend found this hotel. Thank goodness. Really great hotel, ideal location in a fabulous area of Cape Town. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Amazing roof terrace bar with a small pool. If you come here you wont regret it! . We came for the Cape Argos bike race so used it as a base to go out for a few rides before the big day.

This place is truly a gem! 💎 it’s a gorgeous building architectually, with an amazing roof deck that literally gives you the perfect view of table mountain. Everyone at reception was so warm and friendly and so willing to accommodate us. The restaurant for breakfast was perfect. We stayed in room 3 with its own private balcony and you can’t beat the view. Will definitely stay here again next time we are in Cape Town.
