My husband & I stayed 4 nights at the beginning of May at the beginning of a three week African adventure to celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary. We loved everything about the hotel - the ambience, the decor, the staff, who couldn't do enough for you, and did it willingly and with a smile, the size and facilities of our... more

I decided on the Commodore for its location and called the hotel, but was transferred to a local agent to make my booking. I duly paid the agent, but it would seem they never paid the hotel. The hotel took a further unuathorised payment for my whole stay, over a month after I returned to the UK, saying it was... more

Stayed for 4 weeks. on business Good hotel. Was given a recently refurbished room on the fifth floor. Numerous staff who were extremely friendly and helpful throughout my stay. Not the most impressive or scenic hotel from the outside but very pleasant inside. No views really from the room. Fully equipped gym. Very safe and only five minutes walk from... more

Staff brilliant, smiles everywhere, we had our very boistrous 3 year old with us, the staff all looked after us well, did "special" portions of... more

We enjoyed our 5 nights at the Commodore. We found the staff to be friendly and polite and mostly attentive (with only one or two exceptions). We appreciated the free internet access just off the reception area and the valet parking. The room was a good size, not huge but clean, modern and comfortable. We paid £130 per night which... more

We booked this hotel as we had stayed here before and it is a 2 minute stroll to the V & A Waterfront, so really great location. We had a cancelled flight so missed our first nights stay here, and when we checked in i asked for a larger room as we had our youngest daughter with us. However the... more

Located on a quiet street only minutes walk from the V&A Waterfront, the Commodore is the perfect base from which to explore Cape Town. Staff are friendly, even when checking in at midnight ,and were happy to help in any way possible. Our room was lovely and breakfasts were a great to start to the day - I'd definitely stay... more

The Commodore is a bog standard 4* hotel which is used by business travellers and holidaymakers alike. The standard rooms are OK but nothing special. The bed in our room was hard as a rock! Its position was great. Its only 5 minutes walk away from the V&A waterfront where there are masses of cafes, restaurants and shops. The staff... more

The Commodore is rated 5*, I would give it a good 4*. It is not the standard of the Cape Grace or Table Bay hotels but it is a fraction of the cost so you get what you pay for. The rooms are of a decent size, clean and had all we needed for our stay. We were upgraded this... more
