I had a lovely stay at The Winchester Hotel in Cape Town, enjoying its charming colonial style and beautiful surroundings. While the spacious room provided a comfortable retreat, I did encounter a few maintenance issues that could be improved. The breakfast setting was good, but the noise from the kitchen was a bit disruptive. Overall, I appreciated the helpful staff and the hotel's location, though I believe there are areas for enhancement.

I had a mixed experience at The Winchester Hotel By Newmark. while the location was fantastic and the ocean views were stunning, the service and room condition left much to be desired. The breakfast had some nice selections, but the overall food quality felt inconsistent. I definitely think the hotel has potential, but it needs improvement in several areas.

I had a good four-night stay at The Winchester Hotel. The location was perfect, with stunning views of the ocean and Table Mountain, and the staff, especially Linda at reception, were incredibly friendly and helpful. While the walk to the V&A Waterfront was a bit long and the area around the hotel was somewhat quiet, I appreciated the convenient shuttle services. Overall, this charming hotel exceeded my expectations! 🌅

My stay at The Winchester Hotel was mostly fantastic, but I did have a few hiccups. The location is right on the beach, making it super convenient for walks and close to restaurants. The service from the staff was genuinely really good, with everyone eager to help. However, my room was a bit cramped and outdated, which was a letdown considering the overall vibe of the hotel.

Rooms

The room I stayed in had some charm but felt outdated and cramped at times. A window overlooked a public corridor, which wasn't ideal for privacy, and I struggled a bit with the sloping ceilings. That said, it was clean and comfortable enough for my needs.

Breakfast was a real treat, with a wide buffet spread that went until 11 am, which is a rarity! I dined at Harvey's, and while the food was generally good, some meals could use a bit more variety and flair, especially for dinner.
