I chose the Pay now option and it did not Pay, instead it held the booking on a 72 hr payment Schedule which never landed up paying the hotel at all and guest on arrival had to pay upfront for the night and I had to do a separate payment for the remainder of the stay Very annoying. really created complications. I dont have these issues with any other hotel. Staff are also not very friendly.

Acomodações do quarto são boas

Como pontos positivo saliento a limpeza e o espaço do quarto , muito amplo e confortável. O atendimento da recepção também nota 10. Como pontos negativos: o café da manhã ;assim como os atendentes do restaurante, podem e devem melhorar muito. Outro ponto negativo é a localização, apesar de não estar longe do Waterfront , a frequência nas redondezas do hotel são péssimas, muitos pedintes e área bem deserta. A noite, nem pense em sair à pé.

Das Frühstück war gut. Für jeden etwas dabei (von süß bis herzhaft). Die Zimmer waren sauber und hatten eine sehr angenehme Größe. Leider waren die Fenster nicht so dicht, so hört man noch viel von der Straße. Die Aufzug neben unserem Zimmer war außer Betrieb. Ein Restaurant hat der Hotel nicht, dafür kann man dort einige Snacks (Pommes, Sandwiches, etc. ) bekommen.

Bello anche se migliorabile (con poco...)

Nel complesso carino, anche se: nel bagno, così come in camera, mancano ganci per appendere asciugamani e abbigliamento. Il bagno in realtà è enorme, con un sacco di spazio inutilizzato. In camera c'è la moquette. Il letto è un po' troppo molle. La colazione non prevede bevande calde espresse (caffè, cappuccino, cioccolata, ma solo filter coffee).

Wasn’t expecting the hotel to be in bad shape. Although, it got the job done for the one night I stayed there and customer service was great. We also ended up paying for a shuttle ride arranged with the hotel, which showed up perfectly on time. I would highly recommend Joseph. He was extremely kind, gave us some cool information about Cape Town, and was overall a great driver. A+ Joseph. Thank you and the hotel front desk for all the help!

Horrible Tulbagh Hotel Cape Town SA

I recommend Hotels.com remove this hotel as an option, it’s horrible. The place is difficult to find MapQuest & Uber can’t find it, after 5 rooms & prop phone filthy furniture in the 2 sweets & no hot water in the last room, I checked out early, the staff was the only thing that kept me there that long. Absolutely lovely staff trying to make the best of it. It’s clear the owner isn’t interested in fixing problems below the surface.

Don't expect much

On booking, I specifically asked for a double bed and not separate beds. We were given a room with two separate single beds but within 30 minutes we were in a replacement room. Cleanliness - we found a ball of hair in the shower and a strand or two on the towels. Service - although our breakfast table was clean, there were no cups and missing some cutlery. Kitchen staff communication is terrible - I asked the staff for a fried on the skillet egg and she walked away without response but then someone else appeared to make the egg. I also asked a lady where do I get coffee, she also walked away to do something and then a gent came and helped us. Beds were uncomfortable, and the hotel seriously needs to upgrade the mattresses. The management also needs to maintain the one elevator / lift (there are 2) as it cannot be called from the 3rd floor. There was a lady who couldn't get out as the lift kept going up and down but for some reason not stopping on her floor. On the positive side the TV channel selection wasn't too bad although the channels in the first room and second were different - go figure!? Service at reception was good Also parking needs to be directly to the parking attendants outside. It was a night one stay and the price including breakfast is not too bad when you look at the location.
