Taj Cape Town
Room was good and large but no facility to open windows - i hate feeling closeted in. Team were great. Loved the little extras at Turndown - petals around the bath with mini refresh & sleep sprays abd bath soak.

The Onyx Apartment Hotel by NEWMARK
We had a fabulous 5-night stay at the Onyx. I booked a junior suite with all amenities. It was very prefect. The deco was lovely and all aspects of the room was comfy. The location was convenient for the conference I was attending at the center. I would highly recommend a stay at the Onyx.
