Historic Hotels in Africa from NZ$145

"My stay at the Taj Cape Town exceeded my expectations in every way. I loved my room. The bed was comfortable, every shower was invigorating and the bath tub was heaven. The staff take this hotel to an entirely different level. They are attentive, knowledgeable and funny. Primrose, in the restaurant, gave me a food hack/recommendation that changed how I will order breakfast from now on! I need to also call out Siba and Martha from the front desk. Siba was just an all around great help and Martha helped me resolve an issue that had nothing to do with the hotel. She gave me so much calm and saved the start of my trip in a way that made me so grateful. The whole time, i truly felt that her goal was to make certain that i was ok. Bravo! "

"Was really happy with my choice of hotel. The best parts were the staff and the restaurant - I found out that they have their own garden where they grow the fruit for the breakfast buffet. Special mention also the gym where the staff were the friendliest and most helpful I have ever come across - really really excellent customer care - thank you Connie! There is a noisy road outside, and when I was staying there were some roadworks too, only a problem if you are working from the hotel. It's also on a busy junction so access at rush hour can be a bit slow. Despite that, I would return here, just for the breakfast and the overall customer service. "

"Room was spacious and very comfortable. Staff is amazing! Everyone is so hospitable and from Patricia who waited nearly two hours to collect us from the airport after very long queues at immigration and customs to the concierge Joseph helped us organize an excellent driver and happily answered our many questions. They and all the other staff made our stay outstanding. Already looking forward to booking again. "

"We chose this riad to celebrate our anniversary and it exceeded our expectations. The suite was spacious, beautifully decorated, and the private jacuzzi was a real highlight. A peaceful, romantic stay with excellent service throughout."

"Beautiful and comfortable facilities, Convenient location. "

"The Riad was charming . Elegant and full of antique furnishings. The variety of tile designs are amazing. Every corner of the Riad is so well done with beautiful taste. The breakfast with ample choices. The front desk personnel’s are very pleasant and helpful. Our suite fit 4 people is large and beautifully decorated. I wish there was a small fridge to keep drink. The internet is spotty in the room. Overall our stay was great and will stay here again if we come back. "

"The staff were really friendly, from the pick up from the airport to the check out they were always on hand to help. The place was was amazing, the atmosphere, the rooms style and layout was relaxing and full of character. The shower was powerful, felt like you were showering in cave. They give you a smart phone which is really unique , so you can navigate your way through the markets. its far enough away from the hustle and bustle but close enough to walk to it. Check in was very relaxed, they offered me a cup of mint tea and a sweet biscuit, the courtyard is beautifully decorated and radiates a relaxed atmosphere :) They provided towels, robes and slippers, tea and coffee are provided, there is a fridge in the room too. Showergel shampoo are there too, you can walk to the fruit stalls in old Marrakech , there are an array of restaurants and coffee places in walking distance. My favourite part of the room is the reading nook, its cosy and helps you to unwind and relax. I love they have NO TV, its a place to dissconnect and enjoy being around a different culture. Most of all the staf and people of Marrakech are the most friendliest people i have met, every person i met in Marrakech was nothing but warm and welcoming :) apart from the men screaming at you at the fruit juice stand in the Medina lol Thank you Angsana for the warm welcome and comfort on my Birthday Trip :) x"
