4-Star Review The hotel itself is quite old and could use some updates, especially in the dining area. Unfortunately, the breakfast was disappointing — by 9:00 AM it looked stale and unappetizing, which really took away from the experience. However, the hospitality and staff were truly exceptional. Everyone was warm, helpful, and made me feel genuinely welcome throughout my stay. Their service alone made a big difference, which is why I’m still giving this hotel four stars. With some improvements to the food and a bit of a refresh, it could easily become a top choice.

The reception staff were amazing!! Very helpful in many ways, above and beyond! Our room was spacious and very comfortable. Large bathroom and good storage space. Breakfast had a good variety of foods, and the waitstaff were friendly and very efficient. I would definitely recommend Old Bank.

Stay was good, but the last there was a notice coming out of the vents. Staff is incredible, but last morning breakfast was cold and juice was always finish. Airconditioning and television was not up to standard, satellite TV was a problem. Could be better.

This hotel is fairly central in Cape Town, though a bit of a walk from the Waterfront. The staff are welcoming. My room was OK, unspectacular but clean and with all the expected facilities, including wi-fi. Breakfast was satisfactory. I'd be happy to stay there again.

Very central to the places that we wanted to visit. All within walking distance. The Castle, Slave Museum and District 6. All not to be missed. Staff super friendly and helpful. Arranged our pick up from the airport and taxi to our next destination. Breakfast good with a variety of options. Nothing too much trouble for the staff on duty. Room really clean , lots of room and bathroom big with nice toiletries.

We had a great stay at old bank. The rooms were immaculate, spacious and very comfortable. The staff were so friendly and helpful, couldn’t fault the stay at all. Breakfast was buffet style with a good selection of hot and cold options and great coffee. Bar drinks and cocktails were great in the evening for a night cap and drinks could be brought to your room after a long day exploring the city. The only thing to note is location wise we got an uber to most places we visited during our stay, for example the V&A Waterfront and Camps Bay for dinners, which is very easy and inexpensive but most places we visited while in Cape Town were not in walking distance to the hotel. But the hotel staff were always on hand at the door to assist when waiting for Ubers and welcoming you back in the evenings. We arrived early in the morning and staff were very welcoming with a place to freshen up and leave bags so we could go out exploring and check in would have been available a lot earlier than advertised had we have wanted it. Would really recommend a stay here.
