    For the price, the value we got at the Commodore was exceptional - comfortable rooms and a stunning view of Table Mountain. The location was perfect, just a few minutes' walk to the waterfront and it felt very safe.

    The breakfast experience could be improved with a larger selection of coffee choices, including an Italian coffee machine to make specialty coffees like flat whites and macchiatos. It would also be great to have options like vegemite for Australian guests.

    The location was good, plenty of choice at breakfast

    I asked at Reception when we checked in if parking was included in our rate and told it was but when we checked out? The charges were added. I questioned this and was told the information I had t been given at check in had been incorrect.

    We got great value for our money at this hotel - the room was spacious, clean, and the bed was really comfortable. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the V&A Waterfront, and we felt safe in the area. The staff were friendly and helpful, recommending new teas to try and making us feel welcome.

    The hotel breakfast menu could have been improved with more variety.

    The hotel location was great. Staff very responsive to needs.

    Housekeeping hit or miss. Some days we got shampoo and soap, other days we had to ask for it. Same goes for towels and other amenities Very small rooms. Only 1 accessible outlet for charging. At least 1 or 2 usb charging ports would have been nice.

    During our stay at the Commodore, we were delighted with the location and the breathtaking views from our room. The room itself was very comfortable and had all the necessities we needed. We were also impressed with the friendly and helpful service provided by Gadija, who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable. I'll definitely recommend this hotel for its wonderful location and great service.
