Good location in centre of town
What I liked about this hotel was the location and that there was adequate parking outside. Whilst the hotel didn't have a restaurant and we had to go outside to a local place, it wasn't any distance and the food options were what I expected

Great View at the Marina
Nice place we had a balcony overlook at the marina
Staff was excellent and very accommodating
Bed was comfy bathroom was nice and big
Not much to do around there, though nice vendors who are selling local crafts and not in a harassing way
Location was a little disappointing, though not the fault to the hotel

Lovely little hotel right where you need to be, clean and spacious and I was upgraded to a horbour view room 👍 I was diving off Simon’s Town and had one night as it was convenient for me due to the location of the dive centre. Loads of shops, bars and restaurants around to fill your boots 😊

Had a lovely one night stay at Simon's Town Quayside Hotel. The hotel is very conveniently located near the dock where all tours leave from - kayaking, shark diving, etc. - as well as several restaurants. Staff was friendly upon arrival and room was comfortable with a view of the harbor.

Great getaway!
Loved our stay! The room was nice and the view was very lovely of the harbor! The staff was incredibly accommodating and fun to interact with! Even gave us special honeymoon bottle of wine and treats! We did see a baboon on the deck which was an added bonus! :) highly recommend!

The room was very nice although the bed had no top sheet and sleeping directly under a duvet can be rather hot.
It rained on two of the days and there is no covered walkway between the hotel and the hotel restaurant.
The town has become centre stage for a baboon troop and one has to dodge baboons when walking about town, shopping, or going to restaurants.

Unfortunately the water supply was lost during the last two days of our stay. No showers or toilets working - the staff did all they could to help.

Great staff!!
The hotel itself is ideally located and the staff are super helpful and can’t do enough for you. What let’s it down is the state of disrepair, particularly the fact that the key card machine is broken so every time you want to access your room a member of staff has to let you in.
