Peninsula All Suite Hotel by Dream Resorts

We went to this hotel in August 2023. Once we arrived they gave us an apartment with 2 bedrooms with no windows, meaning that the smaller bedroom had a window in the kitchen and the bigger one on an internal passage of the emergency stairs, with people passing by. After complaining, the manager helped us in finding another apartment at least with one bedroom looking at the ocean. The fact is that the suites are very old, with old furniture, old fixtures, very old bathrooms. Our suites was also full of mosquitoes and it wasn’t very well cleaned. Breakfast was poor. The staff was very kind but definitely we will never come back, actually I couldn’t wait to leave the hotel

Hotel advertised suite as 2 bedroom 2 bathroom suitable for 4 adults. This is not the case. The second bedroom is dreary and small and does not have any light or a view. Only room with a view was the main bedroom. Hotel is also outdated and in need of a major upgrade as furniture is scuffed and old. The bathroom was not cleaned properly, on arrival we found toothpaste marks on the cabinets and soap scum around the sink. Walls were also dirty and the latch for the toilet did not work. The second bedroom door didn’t close properly. The fridge was also not cleaned. Air-cons did not work. Positives about this hotel is the location, excellent sea view and friendly staff. I would recommend a refurbished room on a higher floor, which we requested, but the hotel did not have any availability at the time of our check in.

The review by Brian A below is utter nonsense. The Peninsula hotel has been extensively upgraded in recent years. Two new lifts installed Many floors and suites modernised. Strolla brasserie opened. The entire reception area on the ground floor improved. And many other things. Meantime all the hotel's strong points - above all its great staff and wonderful location by the sea - remain. Ignore Brian A's travesty of a review!

We actually love the peninsula, perfect location, views of the ocean incredible and love the vibe of nearby Regeant road. So many positives BUT ………. It needs upgraded, the bathrooms are so in need of an upgrade, we had air conditioning problems which were dealt with quickly and efficiently. However , carpet in bedroom had detritus from workmen that wasn’t hoovered by in house cleaning staff. Our bedroom window was on main corridor and noisy . Fridge door was sticky and in need of a change. Staff friendly and helpful , staff in Strolla also very friendly . Perfect spot just needs some upgrading .

A fantastic resort right on the Seapoint promenade. Staff are all very accommodating especially Isaac who was most helpful with looking after our luggage. The free shuttle service to nearby Hotspot is a bonus. The drivers are courteous and friendly. Rooms are well kept and serviced

Loved the location of the hotel. Beautiful views from the superior suites. The hotel is a bit dated. They have started renovating some rooms. We were very surprised that one has to pay for load shedding and parking and there is not always parking available. The breakfast buffet has a nice flapjack machine. Staff is accommodating.

I remember The Peninsula when it was pristine and luxurious. We haven't stayed there for the last number of years so we were very disappointed with what we found. Being a time share resort where everyone checks in on Friday, the staff could barely cope. The lifts are unreliable with only 1 working much of the time. The noise level is high so relaxation is not a focus. The rooms are in need of proper upgrading - both USB plugs were broken, the windows do not seal (the frames are bent out of shape) so the wind howls, other small issues such as a basin plug that was not operational. There is a tree that has grown 10 stories in the pool area that blocks most of the view on the patio. The position is the saving grace. Probably won't see us back anytime soon.

Very centrally located, close to beaches and shopping district, walking distance to very popular Mojo Market. Rooms are neat and well-kept and recently renovated. Bathrooms are tidy, with very good water pressure for a relaxing shower, although it seems the tub was left out of renovations as it was stained and a bit grubby looking. Enough electrical points to charge all your devices. On our floor, all windows opened wide for a sea breeze, although the restaurant right below the room windows was a poor choice as it can get loud and rowdy. The kitchen is equipped with two plate stove, microwave, fridge/freezer, lots of counter space, toaster, kettle and basin. Couch in living room can be pulled out for double bed. While we were there the generator was broken, but they provided rechargeable lights and candles. The wi-fi is off during loadshedding and very spotty otherwise, do not depend on it, especially if you have work to do. We had water leak from the room above onto the extractor fan and stove, reported it to reception and housekeeping, all they did was leave extra towels to mop up the water, we couldn't use the stove for fear of electrocute or a short-circuit. Busses stop right outside the hotel. They have safe and secure parking at R70 per night

I cannot say enough good things about this place. Great location in a safe area, next to the Promenade and the tourist bus. Plenty of restaurants and shops around. The views from the rooms are unmatched. The service staff might be the best part of this place. They go out of their way to accommodate you as a guest. Lots of amenities between games, gym, pools, on-site bars and restaurants. This was my first time here, but I will make sure to return on my next visit to Cape Town.
