Philippi Hotels, Cape Town

"This is one of the nicest, if not the nicest, airport hotels in the world. Grounds are lovely. You don't realize you are a short walk to airport. Highest recommendation"

"Great coffee bar and breakfast buffet is excellent with many choices. Elevators are slow and hot. "

"Nice little pool. Celebrated my husband’s birthday which was really appreciated with a gesture in the room on arrival. Lovely staff. "

"Ideally placed just a few minutes walk from V&A waterfront. Great hotel, would definitely stay again."

"This is my fourth stay at the Cullinan over a period of 10 years and they’ve managed to maintain high standards throughout which is very impressive - in terms of food quality, cleanliness, friendly well trained staff and overall decor and state of the hotel. I can highly recommend the property"

"Good stay"

"the onomo at the waterfront was charging double the price to the one in the foreshore also you have to be careful if you are down for breakfast as if you sit down you will get paid 250rands without knowing "

"We stayed at this hotel on 2 occasions: 2/21-2/23 and 2/28-3/1, that is, before and after our Garden Route Tour and Safari. For our first stay, the staff was kind and accommodating. The night guard recommended an excellent nearby restaurant open late. The devices and power outlets in the room were functional. We ordered an early takeaway breakfast for our road trip, which was made to order, delicious and generously portioned. However, the second stay left much to be desired. The outlets and phone in the room were not working. Since I was sick and needed hot water for tea, soup, etc., my husband had to go downstairs to the lobby 4 times to ask maintenance to reset the circuit every time we tried to boil the water, recharge our mobile phones, etc. In the morning, I discovered that the shower door was broken and could not be closed properly, but not until I was in it and wet. My husband was downstairs and could not help me get out. The floor ended up wet and slippery. At checkout, the lady listened to our complaints, but did not offer even a partial refund. She suggested an upgraded room when we return. I don't think we will be returning. They did store our luggage from the checkout time (11 am) until our departure (6 pm). When my husband returned to pick up the luggage, he requested a bottled water, figuring they could at least give us a free water for the trip to the airport after everything that had transpired. They said they did not provide free water."

"Perfect for a cheap stay near the airport. No frills, just a bed to sleep in. "
