The hotel is well appointed and conveniently located on the Cape Town waterfront. Our room was very large, clean and quiet. The bar and restaurant served excellent cocktails and food, but what really made our stay perfect was the staff. From the front desk to the doormen to the waiters and bartenders, everyone was cheerful, helpful and accommodating. I would highly recommend AC Hotel Marriott.

We really enjoyed our stay. The rooms were nice and clean, and the bar area was enjoyable. Restaurant had great food. Get the Mozambique shrimp! Great views of Table Mountain from our room. Not much immediately next to the hotel but a short walk to the V&A Wharf and there is a water taxi directly in back to take you there. Also UBER came quickly.

LaTonya

The staff is wonderful. Everyone is kind and attentive. However, the property is not at the V&A waterfront. We had to take an uber to/from the V&A waterfront everyday to get to the better restaurants and shopping. For that reason, I wouldn’t stay at this property again. It’s just too far away from the action in my opinion. But if you’re looking for a safe and clean place to stay, this would be a great option. Also, the breakfast every morning is free and it’s really good!

Great hotel in all ways but inconvenient as there are no restaurants of stores at the location. You need to take a short, inexpensive Uber ride to get to anything. The hotel offers a water taxis shuttle on a schedule.
