The hotel staff is its greatest strength... always helpful, nice and trying to make you feel welcome and comfortable. And, for European standards, quite good value for money. Location is by the sea point promenade, which is beautiful, but not 'happening'.. so if you are into nightlife and city centre, this hotel may not be for you. However, all is... more

Hospitality is good, hotel is excellently beautiful, service is excellent. more

Le Vendome. Your view is of bird poop on rooftops, and you listen to the seagull cries. Everything felt fairly small. Breakfast was good, but not great. If you have a choice, stay at Cape Grace or Table Bay. more

What a great place ! Me and my wife stayed 6 nights at this lovely hotel. Our room was a De Luxe one great in size as in decor, served twice a day with full linen changes. The breakfast was just great and as I travel the world searching for good food, trust me. Staff were all nicest with a... more

We came to Cape Town with the impression that we would be staying at a hotel with a similiar style to Parisian hotels. We were terribly dissapointed. What the staff were wearing were dirty and the place is in desperate need of a renovation. We usually use 'The Small Leading Hotels of the World' as a guideline and we were... more

From what I could gather, the hotel has recently been refurbished as everything was in a fine condition. Our room was equipped with... more

After a journey from Auckland via Sydney and Jo'burg non-stop, anywhere to lie down would have been a result! But... the Vendome, although not in the most promising location at first sight, was a pleasant surprise. Service and quality overall were well above average and although it is not a seaside holiday hotel suitable for families who want to hit... more

A good pool that is clean and kept that way and again... more

As the other reviewer said, this is clearly not the same hotel that 'Disgruntled of Glasgow' stayed in. Le Vendome is beautiful; the rooms are great, well sized, the staff are exceptional and the food fine. This is NOT a boring, standard chain hotel - it is a chic boutique hotel that fully deserves its five stars. The staff are... more
