What guests think

Across reviews, Newkings Boutique Hotel is praised for its very convenient Sea Point location near shops and the promenade, making it a practical base for sightseeing, dining, and coastal walks, especially for travelers who value easy access to amenities.

Many appreciate the setting above shops and groceries, though access through the mall or garage and the busy street can make arrivals feel less relaxing, with occasional hallway or traffic noise. Rooms are generally spacious and comfortable with mountain or partial sea views, but reports note isolated maintenance issues, a few misleading room features or photos, and one pest sighting. Staff are widely described as warm and helpful, though a few guests faced delayed check in; overall expect convenience and comfort more than a traditional resort setting.

Facilities

On-site parking is convenient (often free) and access is secure, but entry via the shopping mall or underground garage feels unusual, the elevator can be slow, and one review flagged a misleading pool photo.

Pros: Nice property, excellent staff, secure access, easy onsite parking, clean comfortable bed, hot shower, cold air conditioning, and soft towels. Easy access to shops, restaurants, spa and art galleries. Cons: Limited table/counter space made it very difficult to set up the room for my stay. I was constantly needing to move things around to make coffee, charge electronics or eat. Lack of outlets made it difficult to charge electronics.

Don't be fooled by the photo - it looks like a fabulous pool. It's actually a photo of the glass roof covering the shopping mall below the hotel.

Man wohnt praktisch im Woolworth und hat ein gehyptes Restaurant vor der Tür. Läden, Parking, Coffee - alles an einem Ort und in belebter Lage in Sea Point. Gut für Alleinreisende!

Lovely hotel with the most friendly staff. Access is a bit unusual, through a shopping mall during the day and through an underground car park at night. But once you’re in it’s very nice with a great restaurant and lovely views of the sea.

We had a lovely stay! Great hotel, but the only downside is a slow elevator. Staff were fantastic.

The staff at this hotel were excellent and they do care for their customers. We were however checked in very late past the official time and one room did have a issue with the sink in the bathroom on the last day which lucky for me, didn't really impact the stay. Location is great and the mountain views are amazing in the morning.

I absolutely loved this hotel. I meant to stay for 5 nights and ended up staying for almost two weeks. The rooms are spacious, well kept and super clean. The hotel is located in a great area within a walkable distance to the promenade, bars and restaurants. But what is best is the amazing staff who truly makes you feel welcome. Special thanks to Tamika who is a super star!

Newkings exceded our expectations. Superb service from friendly staff. We stayed in room 313 which has a balcony with a stunning view of Lion's Head. The room was very spacious and nicely laid out. The attached restaurant is also superb. The street the hotel is on has some amazing restaurants, and is a 2 minute walk to the beach front.

There was no balcony on a room advertised as a balcony room. Sea gull nest in gutter with noisy chicks! Entry via a shopping centre. Sharing lift with shoppers. Patio window very stiff and difficult to open. Traffic noise. Staff good.

Location

Excellent Sea Point base steps from groceries, cafes, restaurants, and the promenade; many felt safe and found transport convenient. Some disliked the mall-based access and the busy main road next to a gas station, with occasional area noise.

The staff were very helpful. However, the hotel is located on the second floor of a shopping mall along a busy main street, right next to a gas station — not the most ideal setting for a relaxing stay. While the surrounding area is quite nice, the hotel’s location and setup leave much to be desired.
