While the rooms here are on the smaller side, they are certainly commendable, clean, and well-designed for a short stay. Interestingly, the bathroom is quite large in proportion to the bedroom itself, which adds a nice layer of comfort that you don't always get in compact accommodations. The hotel's breakfast offering was fairly average—nothing spectacular, but sufficient to start the day. Ultimately, it offers a decent, comfortable stay for the price point. Having stayed at the sister hotel right next door during a previous visit, I did find that property to be significantly better, but this was nevertheless a perfectly fine experience that delivers good baseline value.

The rooms are small but still well worth it for the price. It has a classy feel and very modern. The security is so good at the hotel. Very close to everything and on bree street with good restaurants nearby. The sun square is next door for incredible rooftop views, a swimming pool and gym. Perfect for a short stay for work. Breakfast can be included and a good variety of options.

This hotel is amazing ! Firstly I arrived early before check-in time. The friendly receptionist shared that the hotel offers a free safe luggage room (in the lobby area) , where I stored my luggage then went to explore the town. There are many restaurants/coffee shops and the bo-kaap tourist attraction at a walking distance from the hotel. 5-10 minute drive to the V&A water front. 35+ minutes to wine farms & about 25 minutes to camps bay. The hotel was very clean, safe and they served an amazing breakfast. The lobby/lounge also has charging ports

We stayed 8 nights at StayEasy Cape Town City Bowl. Overall, it was a good experience and the staff were always friendly and helpful. The hotel was clean and the location was convenient. The main reasons I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 are that the bed felt a bit small, and during the weekend there was a bar very close to the hotel playing loud music until early morning, which affected our sleep. Breakfast was decent considering the price. Overall, still a good stay and good value for money.

I really enjoyed my stay here. The accommodation is conveniently located with easy access to the CBD, making it ideal for exploring the city and getting around. The rooms are comfortable, clean, and relaxing, which made the stay very enjoyable. The staff were friendly and welcoming. Overall, it was a lovely experience, and I would definitely stay here again.

Stayed at this hotel for 3 nights as part of a package tour. The hotel is situated near Cape Town CBD area. The room itself was ok in size but it took at least 5 minutes every morning to obtain hot water for your shower. The room has a bar fridge. It is about a 5 minute walk from a supermarket and there are numerous restaurants in the surrounding streets. The sister hotel around the corner looked better and we were able to use the rooftop bar with our room cards. Bar situated on the 14th floor had wonderful views of Cape Town. Breakfast was sufficient. I wouldn't stay here again if given a choice, I would stay in the Waterfront area of the city.

I recently stayed at StayEasy Cape Town City Bowl and found it to be a mixed experience. The hotel's biggest strengths are its location and breakfast. It's situated in a great, safe area close to many attractions, making it easy to explore Cape Town. The breakfast buffet was surprisingly good, with a wide selection of options and automatic coffee machines that made grabbing a coffee quick and convenient. Unfortunately, the room itself was disappointing. The room was extremely small—honestly smaller than some cruise ship cabins I've stayed in. The bed was quite hard, and the pillows were flat and uncomfortable, making for a less than restful night's sleep. There were also some maintenance issues. The shower had good water pressure from the rain shower head, but there was no hot water until I reported it to maintenance and had it fixed, and the shower drain did not work properly, causing water to pool. This was annoying after a 30 hour flight, not being able to shower for quite some time.  Amenities were minimal, with only one small bar of hand soap provided. There was also no iron or ironing board available in the room, which was inconvenient. Overall, the hotel offers a fantastic location and a decent breakfast, but the small rooms, uncomfortable bedding, and maintenance shortcomings mean there's definitely room for improvement.

We had to book accommodation very quickly for our flight. We arrived very late and they were so friendly and accommodating. The next dat was lovely with delicious breakfast and coffee. There was so many options for breakfast. My child enjoyed the pool and everything was perfect!
