For a business traveler this is a definite no-go. Long Street is noisy until 5am and the hotel has no sound insulation. It is impossible to sleep with all the noise. The place is also in desperate need of a refurb.

I would not stay there again and would not recommend this property to anyone for quality, limited service and may even having basic amenities, such as usb power points, no room service at 2pm in the afternoon and if you order a drink you have to go downstairs to fetch it your self and to top it off found a staple pin in my omelette this morning.

Good place if adjacent bars could have soundproof

It was a good experience in terms of the room and the service. The location was however a problem late at night as one could only sleep in the early hours of the night when the loud music from the bars and night clubs stopped. Wish the city could have a soundproof requirement for the bars to allow others to rest

Great for nightlife, not for the light sleepers

Fantastic room and service, but after 10, the street below becomes a party zone. If you like to be out in the evening for dining, drinking, and dancing, this is a great place for you.

For night owls and partiers

The hotel itself is top-notch, and the staff couldn't be more accommodating. However, it sits right across the street from several hostels and nightclubs, and the party there goes on all night long. And I do mean all night - things finally quieted down around 5 am. In a brilliant move, management provides ear plugs upon check-in, but it was still hard to get a good night's sleep.

ホテル自体には問題ない。問題なのは向かいにあるナイトクラブである。毎日朝の4時まで大音量で音楽を流しており、ほとんど寝られない。おかげで体調を崩した。 周りの環境をよく調べていただき、このような環境にあるホテルは改善してもらうか、あるいは提供をやめるなどをしてほしい。 泊まった人がかわいそうだ。

Wer schlafen will ist hier falsch

Wie bewertet man so ein Hotel? Die Zimmer sind klasse, das Personal freundlich, also tagsüber alles perfekt, aber... Ein Hotel dient in erster Linie zur Übernachtung, also zum Schlafen. Und dies ist im Urban Chic so gut wie nicht möglich. Zwar sollte bei der Buchung klar sein, dass die Long Street eine belebte Partymeile ist und es ruhigere Ecken in Kapstadt gibt, aber hier befindet sich gegenüber ein Club, der täglich (!) bis 3:00Uhr bei offenen Fenstern und Türen laute Musik und Bässe verursacht. Die Fenster sind nicht schallgeschützt und daher besteht vor Disco-Ende absolut keine Chance auf Nachtruhe. Das Personal ist sich dessen bewusst und verteilt Plugins für die Ohren. Wer damit klar kommt, dem sei das Hotel empfohlen. Allen die schlafen wollen, Finger weg!

If 'u want to be safe & sleep well don't stay here

It was not a pleasant stay at all ! This hotel we booked as situated in city center of CT . We had nice room with nice table Mountain View - this was the only plus !! No one has told us this hotel is on the busiest and not really safe street in CT. Also that in front of this hotel are two big CLUBS one of them called PLANET, which start playing SOOOOO LOUD music DAILY from 8 pm till early morning ! You are not able sleep as you hear everything and as I said loud music and loud drunk ppl - till 3-4 am daily !!! At the reception we have received earplugs ( never used these for sleeping ) - during whole stay in CT we had to use them if we would like get a bit of sleep ! If you want to have good relax after long day traveling and nice sleep definitely don't stay here or anywhere close by LONG STREET !!!!

Luxury in a very noisy place.

A luxurious hotel. Loved the room space and breakfadt. Two draw backs 1. The location! To the hotels credit they offer earplugs, but I find them uncomfortable. So didn't sleep due to party revellers in Long street. Secondly, the kettle in the room was so dirty, I was put off making myself a cup of coffee. A small thing like that has the potential of spoiling what would be a beautiful experience.

Nice hotel, not the best location.

Nice Hotel, Difficult to enter through the rotating door with luggage. Service and room was good, good view from the room and it was nice that parking was included at no extra cost. Only thing that was annoying about the parking was that the keycards did not work to enter the hotel from the parking and you have to walk outside the hotel onto the street before using the main entrance. Biggest dislike for the stay was the constant noise from the road right until 3am, even after the bars closed people were screaming and talking loudly and spinning tyres which disturbed our sleep. The hotel did not call in law enforcement or anything to address this.

また利用したい。

5月の8日から10日まで2泊しました。ホテルはロングストリートにあって周辺は飲食店が結構あります。飲みに出る方はバーも有るので便利だと思います。向かいのMAMA AFRICAはおすすめです。ホテルはきれいで部屋も広いです。浴室は広くてバスタブも大きなのが有りましたが、私が滞在した時は水不足で使えないようにしてありました。二人で使うにはもったいない位な広い部屋でした。ケープポイントへのツアーオフィスも歩いてすぐだし、テーブルマウンテンにもタクシーで15分位で行けます。おすすめです。ただ夜は外が賑やかなので寝れない人には向かないかもしれません。
