The Capital 15 on Orange Hotel & Spa

Everything was literally perfect except for the flies and a few knats flying around the food. Which tells me that the kitchen needs to become cleaner.  The bathtub rim and toilet rim could use a little more scrubbing, but other than that everything was lovely.

This hotel is in the centre of the CBD. It’s closer to many local amenities and long street. The hotel staff are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast has a variety of options and the restaurant is open until very late at night and has local and international cuisines like Korean short rib and Vietnamese spring roll. The rooms are very clean and spacious. They have The Grotto Spa within the hotel which I highly recommend. I definitely would suggest you check it out if you plan to visit Cape Town.

From the moment we checked in, our experience at this Cape Town hotel was nothing short of exceptional. The rooms were brilliant—spacious, stylish, and incredibly comfortable, offering the perfect retreat after each day of exploring. The hotel amenities were top-tier, but what really made our stay stand out was the outstanding staff. The waitresses were fantastic and nothing was too much for them. A special mention must go to Laverne -the concierge/customer services representative - who was the absolute star of our trip. She went above and beyond, helping us curate the perfect Cape Town experience. Thanks to her, we enjoyed a stunning sunset cruise, a seamless Table Mountain visit, and a memorable walking tour through the colourful Bo-Kaap area. She also managed to secure a much-coveted reservation at The Bungalow restuarant in Clifton, organised the unique GOLD African dining experience, and crafted a bespoke Cape Peninsula tour that was unforgettable. Honestly, whatever the hotel is paying her—it’s not enough! She made our stay truly magical. Of course, it helps that Cape Town is such an amazing, vibrant city, but having Laverne as our on-the-ground guide made all the difference. We left with full hearts, unforgettable memories, and already planning our return. Highly, highly recommend.

Lovely Hotel. Wonderful Staff, Rooms and Breakfast. Lovely linen and very clean Sadly very noisy atrium area. Our Room was above the restaurant/bar facing the atrium and almost everyday the noise was up until 2am-3am such a pity as everything else about the hotel is perfect but I had the worst 5 nights of sleep in a hotel ever. I would only ever stay here again if the hotel could guarantee a room not facing into the atrium. The Grotto Spa is absolutely amazing - be sure to try it out.

Stayed 1 night post cruise, arrived mid morning so understood our room would not be available. We were told we could leave our hand luggage as well as our suitcase, the handluggage (2 backpacks) were taken into the office behind reception and we then went out for the day. When we returned at 7pm the backpacks and cases had been moved to behind the reception desk, not an area open to the public. On collecting them we realized a water bottle had been taken from the side pocket of one of the bags. Presumably someone thought it was of little value and we wouldn't care, it was actually a commemorative gift from our cruise and it meant a lot to us (not something we can replace). We raised the issue at reception immediately and were told a message would be sent to all staff, we explained we were leaving early the next morning and were told the duty manager would be available to talk to us. They weren't. Nobody cared that someone, presumably a member of staff as the bags weren't in a public area as far as know, had removed something. Not what we expect from this type of hotel and no one even bothered to take our details.

Capital 15 on Orange is the place to stay in Cape Town. It is a five-star property with top rate customer service. Conveniently located near the famous Long Street. The staff goes out of its way to make you feel at home. Best breakfast buffett and great amenities such as the spa, the pool, and the gym. Shout out to Reese and Lois and Hailey. The staff at Grotto Restaurant was superb. I can't wait until I return.
