Top Salt River Hotel Reviews

Hotel Verde Cape Town Airport

10/10 Excellent

"It’s a great hotel at the Cape Town airport. So convenient! The shuttle runs every half hour and is always on time. The restaurant is great. We had dinner the night we arrived, and it was lovely. Mede our server could not have been more accommodating. I highly recommend the Hotel Verde! The accommodations and the staff are top-notch"

Hotel Sky Cape Town

8/10 Good

"Great location with plenty of places within walking distance. The views from the lounge and restaurant on the 25th–27th floors were incredible, making it a great spot to relax and take in the city. The breakfast and lunch were good, and the staff was friendly, professional, and welcoming. And what an experience sleeping in the bunk beds—definitely reminiscent of childhood! It was a fun and unique touch that made the stay memorable. One thing to keep in mind: pack your patience for the elevators! They can be quite a wait, especially during busy times. Overall, a unique stay with great views, a convenient location, and wonderful staff."
