The Winchester Hotel By Newmark, Cape Town

The hotel offers spacious rooms, some areas slightly worn, but overall functional. The courtyard is charming, although weather limited its use during my stay. The rooms are a bit small for the price, with a minor curtain mishap. Service is excellent with pleasant and helpful staff; special compliments to Thalia. The location is ideal and central, with easy access to the promenade and walking distance to V&A Waterfront. Dining is sufficient, with the restaurant offering tasty and well-presented food. The hotel has great potential but could use some minor improvements to enhance the overall experience.

The hotel has a charming courtyard setting with small but cozy rooms. Phillip was exceptionally welcoming. Linda at reception was not only helpful but also delightful. The location offers lovely sea views, even though I was moved to a mountain suite. Dining options are varied and delicious, with breakfast available until 11 a.m.

My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. The room was the biggest I've ever stayed in, but the sloping ceilings were a bit restrictive for me at 6ft5. The inconsistency in refilling coffee/tea/milk/biscuits/water was a letdown. The service, however, especially during breakfast, was top-notch with busy but attentive staff members. The location made it a perfect holiday spot in Cape Town, close to main attractions and with stunning views of the bay. The dining was okay, although the menu had limited options. Overall, a great location and spacious room, but a bit hit and miss on the room amenities and dining selection.

The hotel offers spacious and pleasant rooms with a partial view of the sea. They are clean and functional, though showing some signs of wear. The food options at the bar and restaurant are excellent, and the reception staff is very helpful and professional. A great choice for a visit.

I found the hotel to be a mixed bag. While the rooms could have been a bit more spacious for the price, they did get quite hot in the afternoon sun due to the attic-like setup with irregular ceiling heights. However, the service was top-notch, with the staff being incredibly helpful and friendly, especially Thalia at reception and Stacy-Lee at reservations, ensuring a fresh and smoke-free environment. The location offered gorgeous views and a welcoming atmosphere, although there were some issues with comfort and room views. When it came to dining, there were good choices but lacking variety, especially for vegetarians. Overall, a nice stay with a couple of drawbacks.
