This is an outstanding hotel. The situation is absolutley stunning - right on the beach. Even though it is winter here at the moment it is one of the most idyllic spots to just relax. We have used the hotel as a base and travelled around lots on trips which has been well worthwhile, however coming back to the hotel... more

First time in Cape Town and we fell in love with the place! Travelled to SA with my sister and we stayed at the Bay Hotel for 3 nights. Drove our hired car from the airport to the hotel, when we both saw the hotel from the road we both said Wow! Camps Bay is absolutely beautiful and when you... more

I would rate this Hotel as five star without hesitation. The front elevation is very attractive and is approached by a long wide drive. the beach is opposite the entrance across a road where taxis are plentiful. A gate porter opens the way for you. On the right is a heated pool (the only one in Camps Bay). Under a... more

Great location in a great part of the world. Has 5 stars but visit the sun deck to be packed like sardines in a can,on the narrowest beds ever........ Really its a 4 star place with some service aspects only deserving a 3 star status. Its a difficult choice,the best hotel on the beach but................ more

An excellent hotel in an superb situation.Helpfull staff, excellent food, one of our best ever breakfasts.In fact in many ways the food is better value than the many local restaurants.Camps Bay is really lively in the evenings,especially at weekends. Two out of three days there were rather windy (not uncommon in Cape Town).The very good open top bus tour stops... more

We ended our South African holiday by spending 5 nights in this hotel, where I had reserved a Premier Room with Ocean View, and we were not disappointed. A very friendly receptionist checked us in then escorted us to our room which overlooked the wonderful beach and the Atlantic. There were some very "nice little touches" such as a vase... more

Stayed at the Bay Hotel for 2 nights at beginning of February. Had a Classic Cabana room which was large, bright and airy. The cabana pools are unheated which meant they were too cold and we were unlucky with the weather with one day out of the three we were there, wet and colder. Food in the restaurant was very... more

Love the Bay Hotel for its location!! Waking up and looking out at Camps Bay Beach - Stunning! Stroll down to the little coffee shop in the morning and then walk along the beach. In the evenings always something happening at the South Beach style restaurants. I have stayed at the the Bay Hotel a couple of times a year... more

Stayed at The Bay for 4 nights in January. The Hotel is right on the beach and located in the middle of the strip that is Camps Bay. Had a montain view room which was fine as the view of the 12 Apostles is fantastic. The Breakfast was excellent and the service attentive. The pool area and surrounding decks did... more

We stayed 6 nights at The Bay hotel from 26th December to 1st January and had a fabulous time. It is definitely THE place to stay on Camps Bay. My thougts pretty much reflect everything else that has been said in these reviews with regards to the accomodation - it's very good, clean and comfortable, but probably more four star... more
