We stayed here for 5 nights and had a great time. We had been upgraded to a suite as we were on honeymoon which was a nice touch. We also received a bottle of sparkling wine and a platter of fruit. The breakfast was excellent. Plenty of choice and good quality. There is a car park but we parked outside... more

Spent four nights at the Mansion back in February and truly enjoyed our stay. The Winchester Mansions is a lovely small hotel, conveniently located with a great view over Sea Point, 10 min from the Waterfront with the shuttle, and just a taxiride away from the Cape´s beaches as well as many of the main sights. To our big surprise... more

We enjoyed a four night stay in one of the sea-facing suites at Winchester Mansions in early March 2008 and from the moment we arrived we enjoyed terrific service, mouth watering food and relaxing comfort. Prior to our arrival we had booked a taxi collection from the airport through the hotel which was well worth the small extra fee -... more

This was our third stay at the Winchester, and it was excellent as always. Our sea facing suite on the top floor had a balcony with great views. Staff were friendly and helpful, breakfasts were delicious. This hotel has a charming atmosphere! more

W e had an enjoyable stay at Winchester Mansions and would consider staying again, if we return to Cape Town. The hotel was comfortable and of a high standard. We stayed in a suite, which I would certainly recommend as it gave us more space and a seaview. It's position was ideal - close to the waterfront and Camps Bay.... more

The reviews below are mixed, and that is my impression as well. I loved the colonial architecture and atmosphere (similar to the Norfolk in Nairobi), and our top floor room was spacious with an excellent bathroom. The location is indeed on a busy road, hemmed in by tower blocks. Advantages include ready access to the seafront with excellent walking, especially... more

This was to be our final Hotel on our visit to the western Cape. And we were really looking forward to it after reading the reviews. On arrival we were a little disapointed with the location being directly on a main road. The reception was shabby and the bar area was busy and smokey. Our room was number 11 on... more

I stayed here as part of a special interest gardens tour. The hotel is located at Sea Point about 10 minutes' drive from the V&A Waterfront area. It is set out like a Moroccan riad with rooms located round an open central courtyard that was ablaze with bougainvilea and other wonderful plants. As a single traveller I was expecting a... more

Based on the reviews we thought this would be a real 5+. We had some problems....first we were turned off by the dirty room service trays that were left outside rooms and never seemed to get picked up. Secondly we were very upset after the front desk forgot our wake up call. Finally we thought the charge for internet service,... more
