Taj Cape Town

"Located in the historic city center on the pedestrian St. George’s Mall, this architecturally striking hotel is ideally suited to travelers wanting to tap into Cape Town’s cosmopolitan culture—shops, street markets, art galleries, restaurants, and bars are all within walking distance, as are the city’s legal and business districts and Company Gardens (part of the city’s original fresh produce garden planted in the 1650s). The Taj occupies two restored landmark buildings on the lower floors, of which the central hub is the former South African Reserve Bank’s marble-columned main hall (now the lobby, lounge, and bar areas). Atop this rises a new ultra-modern 17-story tower where most of the hotel’s 176 rooms and suites are positioned to take advantage of the views of the city and Table Mountain. The lower, historic floors of the hotel house elegant rooms (with limited views and non-opening windows, alas), an Jiva Spa, and a fitness center with an indoor lap pool (the hotel’s sole pool). The best of two restaurants is the fine-dining Bombay Brasserie, modeled on its London namesake, focusing on regional Indian specialities carefully matched to local wines. Service here is also the most professional and confident, whereas elsewhere at the hotel staff seem more tentative."

Taj Cape Town (Cape Town, South Africa) 6 Hotel Reviews | Tablet Hotels

"There’s no real shortage of opulence scattered across the Cape Town luxury-hotel scene, but there’s a respectably large amount of it concentrated under one roof, in a convenient location near the financial center and at the head of the city center’s pedestrian district, St. George’s Mall. This is the Taj Cape Town — and the Taj group, frankly, is getting closer and closer to becoming the sort of operation where the name and the location alone provide a fairly complete picture of the product on offer." - Tablet Hotels

What a fantastic return visit! Having stayed here previously in 2022, I was so impressed to see significant improvements across the hotel. The entire experience was a huge step up.||From the moment I arrived, check-in was smooth and welcoming. Nicole was particularly helpful and made the process a breeze. |I was thrilled that my AMEX benefits were automatically applied without me even needing to ask. |I received a fantastic suite upgrade, complimentary breakfast, and a generous $100 meal voucher.||The suite itself was excellent, spacious, and filled with thoughtful amenities. |The room was stocked with good quality tea, a coffee machine and hot chocolate from Hausbrandt.|Gown and slippers were included in my suite.|Excellent welcome bouquet, welcome card, and Sweet Treats and they were wonderfully presented.||I thoroughly enjoyed my meals—dinner at both the Mint and Bombay restaurants was great, with a wide array of delicious food and drink options. |Breakfast was equally superb, with a great variety of hot and cold dishes to choose from. A special shout-out to the incredible Chai tea—it was the perfect way to start the day.||The hotel's facilities, including the gym and swimming pool, were top-notch and well-maintained. Changing rooms were stocked with Molton Brown amenities, which is a true gem for hoteliers.||I can't wait to visit again and would highly recommend it to anyone, especially those with AMEX benefits."

Outstanding breakfast and great service. Rooms and public areas were great too. Great central location. We extended our stay and Taylor and her team went to great lengths to ensure that we stayed in the same room even though we were given a complementary upgrade. I wasn't aware that parking usually costs R250/night. Would probably be a better idea to incorporate the cost in the nightly rate. Would definitely consider staying there again just because of the exceptional breakfast.

Had a wonderful 7 night stay in Taj Cape Town. My 5th visit and the best visit for birthday celebration. Great location, really pleasant and clean rooms, but the thing that makes this such a good place to stay is the staff. The staff goes above and beyond to make your stay comfortable. A special mention to ZIM from Front office desk who truly made our stay extra comfortable. She was always available, attentive, and made sure every little thing was looked after throughout our visit. Her smile made our day and her love towards my kids was full of happiness . On my son’s birthday she made a special arrangement with sweeties to surprise him & we are so grateful . ZIM you are the best 🤗🤗 Breakfast was enjoyable and had a good selection with attentive staff. The rooms were spacious, clean and well-maintained. The beds were very comfortable and the amenities were great. Room was cleaned with the essentials every single day and housekeeping is exceptional. The hotel is well situated, being close to shopping, transport, and the tourist sites. We would definitely stay there again. Highly recommend THE TAJ CAPE TOWN😉😉 Thank you for making my holiday so lovely will definitely be back 😁 Taj Cape Town is Home Away from Home 🇮🇳

I stayed at this hotel for 3 nights to spoil myself a couple of weeks ago. Everything about the stay blew me away. Staff and service are incredible, rooms are huge, bed is amazing, turn-down service is on point. The attention to detail really impressed me, like the rose petals at the bath and the fact that my welcome drink in the room was a high quality sparklng grape juice (not Grapetiser) instead of sparkling wine before I even told them I don't drink alcohol. The doormen opened the door for me every time I entered or left the hotel. The location is perfect, in the middle of the city and close to public transport (MyCiTi stop is 200m away) and it's right across the street from the Company's Gardens. Lots of affordable food options nearby if you don't want to eat at the incredible restaurants on site. I stayed in the heritage section amd the rooms are fully soundproof. There was a small baby in the room next to me and I only heard it crying (faintly) on 2 occassions when I was right up against the wall because I was working at the desk at the time. The spa facilities on site are also great, and the pool and sauna are open 24hrs for hotel guests.

This hotel is so nice and the staff are even nicer. So helpful and friendly. The rooms are reasonable and the hotel is so well maintained. If I'm ever lucky enough to go back to cape town, I'm definately staying here. On an additional note. The restaurant in this hotel, Bombay Brasserie, was so good, we either ate in the restaurant or had it delivered to our room nearly every night we stayed at the Taj.

Our 9 nights at Taj in Capetown was extraordinary. From the time we arrived until we checked out, the reception and services were consistently exceptional and well delivered. The staff continuously checked with us to ensure that our suite accommodation and dining services were well received, and to ask if there was anything they could do to make our stay better. The executive lounge was a place to go through out the day for refreshments and snacks, even offering a nightly cocktail hour. I can't say enough about the Taj, and staff except its reputation as a fine hotel and resort, speaks for itself.

Well, our stay at the Taj Cape Town was overall great ! We came here for our honeymoon and they beautifully decorated our room and offered some complimentary wine and desserts. There was just one incident which was a little concerning, where the porter barged into our room while we were inside, for transferring some luggage. Well he was clearly coming to the wrong room and didn’t check the room number properly. That incident was really bad and the hotel didn’t really do anything to make up for it. The food here was also fantastic with a good spread that caters to the Indian audience.

Stayed here for couple of nights during my recent visit to Cape Town. The location is prime and great. Room is spacious with all amenities. Bed is comfortable and sleep quality is good. There are several dining options and we enjoyed the ambiance and food at Mint are great. Thanks to the entire staff, who were so courteous and friendly. Wherever you go, Taj is Taj, in maintaining peak standards in hospitality…
