Self-catering apartments with views
The Riviera Suites offers fully equipped self-catering apartments with kitchenettes, allowing guests to prepare their own meals. Units range from hotel rooms to three-bedroom apartments, many with furnished balconies overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Features include free WiFi, a flat-screen TV, and a microwave. Some rooms have a soaking tub and separate shower. Ground-floor rooms open directly to the indoor pool area, which can be noisy; upper floors are quieter.
Location
The on-site La Vita Spa offers a range of treatments including massages, facials, manicures, and body scrubs. Guests also have access to a heated indoor swimming pool, sun loungers, and a hot tub. The hotel sits directly on the Sea Point beachfront, with the promenade steps away for walking, running, or cycling.
Right on Sea Point beachfront
The hotel is located on Millionaire's Mile, directly across from the Atlantic Ocean and the Sea Point Promenade. The Hop-On Hop-Off bus stop (Stop 10) is just opposite, and the V&A Waterfront is a few minutes' drive away. Table Mountain, the Cape Winelands, and Cape Town city centre are all within easy reach by car. Shops, supermarkets, and restaurants are within a 100-metre walk.
24-hour front desk & shuttle
The hotel has a 24-hour front desk, a tour desk, and offers airport shuttle service (must be pre-arranged). Limited parking is available for a daily fee and must be booked in advance. Other services include babysitting, board games, a business centre, meeting facilities, and car hire. The property is non-smoking and has key card access, CCTV, and fire extinguishers.
“Its position directly opposite the ocean promenade is undeniably its strongest asset, placing you steps from the sea and a convenient hub for exploring the city. The spacious rooms, many with substantial balconies, and the well-appointed kitchens suggest a real consideration for longer stays, while the staff consistently prove helpful and accommodating. Dining at the attached cafe provides a solid value, especially for breakfast, rounding out a stay that prioritizes location and comfort.”
