I was slightly apprehensive after reading some previous reviews, but I'm very glad we chose Royal Boutique Hotel and would definitely recommend. The location is excellent- a 5 minute walk to the seafront and all the bars and restaurants. There was free parking available at the hotel, which was a big bonus. The female receptionist was engaging and friendly and was kind enough to upgrade us to a sea view room. The room itself was fairly compact, but well appointed and comfortable. The towels and bedding aren't luxurious, but everything was clean and we had no complaints. Very well stocked mini-bar/coffee machine/hairdryer/AC etc. Breakfast was outstanding. Potentially the best breakfast in our 3 week holiday around South Africa.The fresh fruit selection was huge, and the pastries were fresh. The hot options were well presented and very tasty- the breakfast wrap in particular was superb. Great service at breakfast. Pool was small but pleasant and very clean. View from the bar area/terrace was gorgeous.

Our sea view room at the front of the hotel didn't block out all the noise, but that's to be expected and is a trade off for being so centrally located in Camps Bay. It wouldn't put me off returning.

The location and the view are perfect for a holiday feeling while in Cape Town, only one minute walking distance from the the camps bay strip with many restaurants, bars and shops. The room was very spacious and the staff waited for us for our late check in. The breakfast was great, with lots of freshly cut fruit! And last but not least, the view over the ocean from the room, but also from the breakfast place and the swimming pool (incl the sunset) is the best!

Our airconditioning wasn't working at the time. The swimming pool has only a few beds that are close to eachother, just something to take into consideration as you might need to head to the beach for some more space.

The hotell had a very good location close to the sea and the restaurants. My room were on the second floor facing the sea and it was very nice and clean. The staff in the hotel were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was as expected with good service. Below the hotel at the main Street the Hop on Hop of buss goes which is convenient for a city tour.

If you want help for a guide tour don't use the service from the hotel. It's unnecessary expensive if you are single. Better use uber or Hop on Hop of bus instead. Also the service to the airport is unnecessary expensive compared with uber. Otherwise everything is good 👌

Location was excellent, 5mins walk to the main town and especially as Camps Bay lies at the bottom of steep roads. Very warm welcome from all staff and especially Givemore who cooked our breakfast daily to perfection, from a decent choice of breakfast. Room was attended to daily and lovely seaview from the balcony

only concern was the layout of the bathroom as the door to the bathroom meant stepping back on to the slippery shower floor to exit bathroom so care required not to have bad slip/fall

The selection of food provided catered for everyone and the quality was excellent. The staff at breakfast were excellent. The ocean view was amazing too.

It would be better if there was a in-house chef for dinner. It would be great if the fact that dinner is not available is communicated upfront during booking so that people have this information upfront.

Location

I like everything

The breakfast was well presented with a much wider variety of options than expected. The timings of the breakfast were also very generous…didn’t end too early which was nice as we’re keen on a lie in!

Overall the hotel exceeded expectations in all aspects. The only thing that could maybe be improved is that we were given a fresh towel one morning which had some holes, but still clean so not a problem in that respect and didn’t affect the enjoyment of our stay at all.

very nice people running the hotel, thank you to all staff! we were with kids, all was smooth. we could leave the pram downstairs in the staff room, appreciated. great breakfast! exactly how we love it! fruits selection, croissants, yogurt, muesli, eggs the way you wish to be done. great view, the balkony.

hotel needs just a bit of renovation, or at least some more care, to fix a few details. because we are w kids, we pay more attention to how the rooms are cleaned, could be done a bit better too.

Staff were very helpful and we had a wonderful view. We were give a free upgraded which was a wonderful surprise. Also the staff were happy to help us with our luggage which was a relief considering the lift was still not working

The lift was not working and the stairs are quite steep. Also the door on the ensuite bath room was very annoying as we had to stand in the shower to close it to get to the toilet. I personally feel it is not necessary for there to be a door and it should be removed.

The staff could not have been more welcoming and friendly. The breakfast was superb and the view over the ocean with Table Mountain to the rear was magnificent. And the location to Camps Bay was excellent. Only two minutes to the white sandy beach, the many bars and restaurants.

The only thing that was a bit of an issue was that the lift didn’t work. We arrived on Sunday and were told it would be fixed by Tuesday. It still wasn’t fixed when we left 10 days later. There we quite a lot of stairs to climb to get up to reception and to our rooms. But I guess the exercise did us good!
