2/10 Poor

I usually do not write reviews unless I had an exceptionally good time or bad time. In this case I had a terrible time. The hotel is clean, and looks nice in hindsight, but there is a large internal problem. My money was stolen at this property. The staff seemed to be responsive in trying to help me launch an investigation and now I have yet to hear anything. I spoke to a few other people and they’ve stated that their money has been stolen at this same hotel. I do not recommend staying here as there are many other hotels in South Africa and around the area. A considerable amount of money was stolen and in all my travels this has never happened to me. Just be careful if you choose to stay here.

4/10 Fair

Misleading. A lot of friction with check in proces
Very high friction at the check in desk. The room on the website that includes breakfast, was not registered the same on the hotels system. The check in clerk was very rude, and wanted to put surcharges to our room because of their new found policy ( that again does not align with Hotels.com's terms ). We booked the 3 bedroom apartment that has breakfast included, but the hotel only allows for 2 breakfasts for the room.

Good Stay
We had a wonderful stay at the Rockefeller Hotel in Cape Town, starting with a smooth check-in experience thanks to Nikita at the front desk. The staff and housekeeping were attentive, ensuring a comfortable and clean environment throughout my visit. However, the sushi did not meet the high standards I've experienced in travelling around, and the lack of nearby dining options was a bit inconvenient. Despite this, the overall service and experience at the hotel were exceptional, making my stay enjoyable.

10/10 Exceptional

I had two weeks in Rockefeller hotel as solo traveller for vacations and it was a great choice for longer stay. Hotel itself is in safe area and honestly I think the city does not deserve the negative publicity it gets for safety. I walked around both during day time and evenings alone and did not feel threatened. Hotel, its facilities were excellent with friendly staff that went out of their way to be helpful. Restaurant on the other hand was not that spectacular, dined there few times and can’t say it deserved a four star hotel (tried both sushi and pasta and pizza). For no I g around I have used Uber which was super convenient, affordable and max 2 minutes wait to be picked up. Just a comment, would be nice to have a bath robe :)
