Mountview Spa - March Stay
The Mountview Spa was a great place, in the heart of SeaPoint, which is a nice break from the very heart of Cape Town but has plenty to do, and is just 10 minutes away from both Camps Bay and Cape Town. The only issue was the ongoing Water Crisis, meaning that the pool and hot-tub were out of action, but this is no fault of Mountview, and Cape Town is heading in the right direction with the drought, with the 'd-day' already being pushed back from April to July.

Comfortable hotel for couple of nights
The guest house is very clean and the decor lovely . But not having a window was not something I would never choose . Also the name of the guest house Mountview , suggested to us we might have a view but there is none . Breakfast good , location good , very nice if you don't mind having no vista .

Nothing like the pictures
Hotel was nothing like the pictures. No one was there to register me or greet me upon arrival. Cancelled immediately upon seeing location and expedia was not able to make contact with "front desk" for several days and then sent message that hotel denied my request. Very poor communication. Eventually agreed to refund my money but it didn't come easily.

The staff was very welcoming and the breakfast they provided was more than we expected. Very accommodating when our group needed to leave our bags there on check out day.
