The Victoria and Alfred was truly a treat. It is clear that this hotel understands guest service and makes it a high priority. Staff members were friendly and helpful at every turn. Everyone, from the front desk staff to the housekeepers were quick to greet guests in a friendly manner. The room we were in was both enormous and very... more

Very touristy - but well worth visiting to shop and then sit with a drink and watch the sun go down behind table mountain.
