Radisson Blu Hotel Waterfront

City Hotel, V & A

Scenically located beside the Atlantic, overlooking its own marina and Robben Island, this relaxed five-star hotel offers top-quality service and nautically-themed style. The V&A Waterfront, Cape Town’s shopping and entertainment hub, is within strolling distance, and Table Mountain is just a 15-minutes drive away. Guests are also primed to enjoy the hotel’s Tobago's Bar & Restaurant, an ever-present on lists of the city’s best dining options.

Accommodation
Choose from four categories. Standard rooms promise breathtaking views over Table Mountain; Superiors have added space and partial ocean or marina vistas. Bigger Business Class face the ocean or marina, and feature private balconies, Nespresso machines and free newspapers. Top of the tree are 11 two-bedroom suites offering vast sea-facing patios, floor-to-ceiling windows and office space. All rooms come with Wi-Fi and cool, contemporary Scandinavian light-wood furnishings.

Facilities
Served al fresco when possible, Tobago's delectable dinners cover off local mainstays like seared tuna loin or Chalmar beef fillet in cahoots with a long wine list. The cocktails are equally sought-after: leave time to sip a melon margarita while watching sunset. There’s also an infinity pool and Jacuzzi, while the Amani Spa’s menu stretches from massages to pedicures and polishing via a steam room, gym and oxygenated pool.

Activities
Hourly shuttles link to the V&A Waterfront if you can’t face the five-minute walk. In the other direction is a greenway perfect for jogging or amorous strolls. Trips to Table Mountain, Cape Town’s beaches or the city centre can be arranged, as can watersports, hiking, mountain biking and paragliding excursions.

Child Policy
Babysitting, cots and interconnecting rooms are available.
