What guests think

At DoubleTree by Hilton Cape Town - Upper Eastside, guests frequently highlight friendly, accommodating service and generally clean, quiet, and spacious rooms, while noting occasional downsides such as dated areas, inconsistent housekeeping, and impacts from local power outages.

The urban, industrial setting divides opinion: several caution against walking at night, yet many find it convenient for tour pickups, with shuttles to the V&A Waterfront and some attractions like the Old Biscuit Mill within reach. On-site dining is well regarded, especially breakfast variety, though some note slow evening service or higher prices. Overall, expect a practical base rather than a resort feel.

Facilities

Shuttles to the V&A Waterfront and the airport, plus helpful in-house transport/concierge support, are appreciated; basement parking is available but height-restricted. Some facilities are affected during load shedding (limited backup power, A/C issues), and the gym is reported small and could be cleaner.

* With rolling electricity outages on daily basis, not all rooms were on emergency power: Air conditioners do not work then and windows do not open. This creates a little sauna. Hotel was not upfront with these challenges upon booking. * Hotel is situated in secluded area away from shops, restaurants and attractions. Area appeared unsafe. * Poor maintenance: We rented two rooms both had broken toilet seats, curtain had holes and basin was blocked, poor water pressure. * Staff excellent. * Breakfast mundane.

Checking in was super easy and the front desk staff was very friendly. I got my warm cookie and went to my room. The room was decent. I wish there was an outlet besides the bed, but bring a USB-A if you want to charge your devices bedside. The room was cold and the shower was hot. Which made for a pleasant stay. The breakfast had a large variety of items, made to order eggs and pancakes. The staff, I can't say how much I loved the staff. Very professional, they remembered me from day to day, even my coffee order overall adding to the great stay i had at the hotel. The hotel is located inside of another building with some restaurants and shops. It's also located in what appeared to be an industrial area. So access to anything outside of catching a rideshare/taxi/Uber is necessary. The airport transfer needs to be scheduled before hand which they seem to be pretty flexible and accommodating. Overall I enjoyed my stay at this hotel.

I have been staying at this hotel for over 10 years; this was my first post covid visit; I noted a general demise in the overall aesthetic and standard of appearance; the hotel looks and feels tired and old; furnishings; carpets; walls peeling/dirty paint etc; felt like a hotel in decline and therefore I reflected that in my rating

Room was standard looking. Floor was not swept on first day, then realized a dirty towel was on the rack. When I talked to the front desk they said sorry but no solution to rectify it. I then had to phone down to get my towel replaced. Next day, the floor was still not swept with debris like cereal on the floor. Window howled for the wind as wouldn’t seal, we had to put a bag around the seal to stop it. Service at the restaurant in the evening was very slow, had to keep asking for things like condiments or cutlery. They forgot one person’s meal completely. Morning breakfast was good and so was the service. No real common area to play games with friends. Location was good with a small convenience store nearby. Shuttle service was good. Room was not to standard for the price. Would not stay here again.

Grocery store, gas station, a few restaurants, and the highway were all in close proximity. The room was extremely spacious and clean. If I return to Cape Town, this is where I'll likely stay.

For business, I had to checkout of the hotel, but I checked back in a few days later. My only issue with my second stay was the AC wasn't running cold so I was a little hot at night. Nothing too bad though. The cleaning staff was great too. My second stay was just as enjoyable as the first. I needed an airport transfer so I settled on a time, when I went to check with the transfer company, the told me it would be better to leave earlier due to intense traffic. I'm so glad they informed me so I could change the leave time.
