Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I went back to stay in this hotel for 4 nights. The place is good, but for a business traveler the lack of Internet really is a challenge. The hotel provides 3d party internet wifi services and this time, it did not work at all for 3 days out of my 4 days. Their technical support is also not very good, so I was stuck with the option of going to other […] internet cafes around the place. its a mixed feeling, the location is great, hotel has some history, but the modern day requirements are lacking.

First time at this hotel. Overall the stay was very pleasant. the hotel staff is very nice and helpful for anything I needed. very spacious room and clean bathrooms. the location is good & not so good. very close to all the key locations I needed to go to. only problem is that the green market shop keepers start very early, making it somewhat noisy […] if your room is facing the street. I would still recommend highly to anyone looking for a decent hotel. Read more

We stayed two nights in this hotel. Friendly welcome and very good breakfast.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Hotel is in the perfect location to visit cape town but it was not in particularly good upkeep. There was no a/c, which normally would be fine, but the ceiling fan was not very effective and was extremely noisy. Also since the hotel is so close to Long street, the nights are very noisy with nightlife, which is great for going out but means you can't […] sleep with the window open. I had trouble falling asleep needless to say. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful and the size of the room was more than adequate. Breakfast was also good. Read more

The staff was courteous friendly and professional. Mrs. Campbell was the best,she was on top of everything,she made me feel right at home.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The best thing about this hotel is the location - surely there can't be a more convenient place - and for such reasonable rates. The room was clean and quiet although services were minimal - no soap or any other amenities in the bathroom. The staff is chilly but efficient. Breakfast is nothing special. They were renovating the lobby when I was there, […] so it smelled like paint and was pretty much of a mess. The hotel offered free cancellation within a day of arrival - but would not give me credit for a day I had to miss. But all that can be forgotten when you step out the door, and you're right in the middle of everything in the city. I'd go there again without any hesitation - but I'll take my own soap. Read more

Fantastic little hotel in great location. The staff was awesome: friendly, knowledgeable, attentive. The included breakfast was the best we have had in any hotel. This is an old hotel and it lacks a few amenities, but it is sparling clean and we hated to leave its many charms.

Genuine Expedia guest review

An old hotel brought back to life with a modest rehab investment. Given its excellent city location and friendly staff plus pleasant breakfast service and moderate rate this is a good hotel for those on moderate budgets and those who want an earnest Capetown downtown city experience. Certain people may believe it is borderline acceptable but for the […] experienced traveler this is a reasonable and authentic choice. Some will really enjoy and others who are a bit persnickety may be less than satisfied. My wife and I would definitely stay there again. Read more

One of the best places I've ever stayed for the value. Right in the middle of Cape Town Center's action. Price wonderful, but the staff are some of the nicest, most helpful, most generous, friendliest people I've met anywhere. Never too busy to go out of their way to help and advise. Oldest hotel in Cape Town, refurbished, painted, clean and nice. Good […] security and room service. Perfect three-star hotel, service makes it a five-star. Highly recommended for singles, couples and budget-conscious travelers. Don;t often find a hotel this comfortable and welcoming. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Cape Town. Read more

I booked a stay at the Hotel Tudor for 5 days as vacation before a long trip on a ship. It had very positive reviews, so I was looking forward to it. The hotel brochure says that all rooms have air conditioning or a ceiling fan. Mine had neither. I checked in a 1 am after a long flight and found that the room was hot and stuffy and I could not ventilate […] it even with the window open. The window remained open for the next 5 days and as the weather cooled significantly, the room slowly followed. On a couple of days it was much warmer in the room and only at the end was it comfortable. The hotel workers lent me their fan and that helped on subsequent nights. I should say that the hotel staff was very nice and helpful. The breakfast was fairly good with bacon, eggs, toast and decent coffee available. Another issue with the hotel was the location. The location is a bit removed from the waterfront, if you want the fancy shopping and restaurants. Greenmarket Square, on which the hotel sits, has lots of handicrafts for sale at cheaper prices than at the waterfront. The neighborhood is a bit sketchier and full of persistent beggars. But the big problem with Greenmarket Square is that it is noisy. Almost every night there was shouting or horns blaring. On Wednesday and Thursday nights (I assume this continues on Friday and Saturday) there is a disco somewhere nearby so you hear the bass of pounding music. So I had to close the window and wear earplugs. If you want to go to Hotel Tudor, make sure you get a room with climate control and one with a window off the square. Read more

very freindly and comfortable hotel I felt comfortable while staying

Genuine Expedia guest review

Helpful front desk, located amid other attractions, convenient restaurant with limited hours, complimentary full breakfast, but aging building and minimal decor. I'd stay here again.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Staff was very helpful, rooms clean, breakfast good. All of this in walking distance to the Green Market and other restaurants and bars. Would recommend this any time.

Genuine Expedia guest review

We enjoyed this hotel. we found the location to be very convenient for shopping ang exploring the city. It is literally in walking distance of many attractions and activities, including a vibrant nightlife (Very close to mamma Africa). I enjoyed Green Market square being at the door of the hotel. It was particularly nice to sit in the huge picture window […] of eh restaurant and watch the market come to life, If you ar a photographer this is a great spot to snap interesting pictures. The free breakfast was very simple. The staff was so great that if they knew we would miss breakfast because we would be on a day trip, they would provide a bag/sac lunch for us. This hotel may not have a pool, spa, exercise room or other such features found at larger hotels,but it has a staff that is so friendly and helpful that it rivals the concierge at large expensive hotels. There was only issues and it was minor: There is a light sensor on one flore tha has a delayed response. This was being worked on before we left. Read more

I arrived at the hotel on a Sunday afternoon and was a little nervous because it didn't appear to be in a good part of town and everything was closed. However, when I got inside the hotel I was pleasantly surprised. The next morning when everything was open I found that the hotel was in a great location and it was staffed by very friendly and helpful […] individuals. Read more

Tudor was quiet and hospitable. Breakfast service was very good. Hotel staff was helpful. Television service needs news channels.

Plaisant stay, freindly employees, convenient to all but should be careful when you go out at night time. Hotel needs some refurbishment.

I had an excellent stay. Just a bit too far to walk to the CTICC

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I would recommend this hotel to either people traveling alone or couples. The staff here are great and help you as much as possible. Personally I thought the rooms were good; they had hot water and comfortable beds, the only draw back was someone had taken the shower head, still the shower worked fine it just meant the bathroom got a bit wet everytime […] you took a shower. Breakfast is good quality with a selction of hot meal and cold buffet. It is in a great location; a stone throw from Long Street, where there are plenty of bars. Green Market Square is just outside your door step and worth a visit to get gifts for the family, however make sure you barter on prices. The Water Front is a short 5/10 minute taxi ride away costing between 35- 50 Rand. Finally the bus station to and from the hotel is only 15 minutes walk. If I come back to Cape Town I would stay at the Tudor Hotel again that's for curtain. Read more

The hotel for me personally was just somewhere for me to sleep at night as there is so much to do in Cape Town. The staff were excellent at keeping my room tidy and staff at the reception were delightful to talk to.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Even though its old, it was clean and neat, just need an aircon in the room. Breakfast was good, just need to get use to the setup.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I needed a hotel for my holiday that was cheap and cheerful, and the Tudor fitted the bill perfectly. The hotel was clean, the staff extremely helpful and friendly and the room was clean.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

A perfectly acceptable little hotel in the budget category. Ideally situated literally a stone's throw from Long Street. It offers excellent value for money. I will certainly go back.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Very good service and accommodating but not properly advertised as what type of hote it really is. The Tudor Hotel is more of an Inn or a country side hotel. I was therefore dissapointed because it was not appropriate for the type of occasion I was celebrating. One needs to be clearer about what type of accommodation is on offer ie. no room service, […] no veranda or area for entertaining. This is the type of hotel merely for an overnight stay or for someone not spending a lot of time in the hotel as such. They are very hospitable and there is nothing wrong with the rooms but if you want room service or are expecting visitors it is not the type of hotel you would want to book. Read more

The location is great, staff are very kind and helpful, the breakfast is a good amount with hot food and fresh fruits and juices. The price is great , it is a really good deal.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Tudor hotel is a good value hotel in the city bowl area of Cape Town, close to Greenmarket square and many shops and restaurants. The rooms are clean but a little tired and dated. The staff were friendly and helpful and made our stay very enjoyable. We were able to arrange baby-sitting for our toddler one evening when we wanted a nice dinner close by. […] The only negative I have is the breakfast, which is very basic. There are several cafes close by that open early though! This hotel is close to stop 4 of the Red City sightseeing bus which is a great way to see the city and travel up to Table Mountain. Read more

The hotel is situated adjacent to a small but vibrant market where I could get almost all my souvenirs and gifts. The building itself is an old one, so for those who are looking for a modern, luxurious hotel, go elsewhere. What really made me like this hotel was the staff. I was there for a week and met the most different hotel workers and I don't know […] if they are just a bunch of happy and nice people but their friendliness really made me feel at home and that is why if I ever go back to Cape Town, I will be staying at the Tudor.

The hotel is a friendly, very conveniently located middle of the road place but unfortunately the location can get very loud at night - almost right through the night. Double glazing the windows might make a big difference.

A traditional hotel with clean facilities but not luxurious. Good value for money. The price includes a very good breakfast

Genuine Expedia guest review

the breakfast was 1 egg 2 very small pieces of bacon and 1 slice of tomato 1 sliceof toast .I made a complaint to the manageress when we booked out,she said we should have had 2 eggs 2 rashers of bacon she was going to look into it. the breakfasts are provided by a cafe next door.the noise on friday & saturday night from about 50 yards away was so loud […] you could not get to sleep till 3-30 am or 4-00 am why the police allow this I dont know. the room & service was good. if you did not stay friday or saturday it would be very enjoyable Read more

My stay at the Tudor hotel at the beginning of November 2010 was a very enjoyable experience. Its a good 3* hotel, in a great location at an affordable price. Situated just off Long St and on Greenmarket Sq there is lots of hussle and bustle during the day with lots of people around. A night the area can be slightly dubious but just keep your wits about […] you. The hotel was having a paint job while I was there and the lift was broken also but was being fixed. The rooms can be noisy with music and voices filtering through from the bars and restaurants on Long St so be aware of that. It didnt bother me but it might some. Its a great location to explore the rest of Cape Town from here and everyone at the front desk was extremely helpful and friendly! Read more

Lovely small centrally located hotel. Staff were very friendly and always happy to help. Rooms were well presented with tv, air con, good powerful shower and tea and coffee making facilities. Our room actually felt more like a suite as we had an entrance hall/dressing area so the bathroom wasn't directly off the bedroom either. Being so central had […] it's pros and cons. It's short walk (5 minutes) to the bars and restaurants on LongMarket Street but this also mean noises issues although it is at the very end of the main stretch.The fact it overlooks Green Market Square also means you get the noise of the traders setting up. That said, it didn't bother us too much and we would definitely recommend it and stay there again. Read more

Fantastisk service på hotellet! De ordnet alt. Helt OK rom i 4. etasje - fine rom i 5. etasje. Uslåelig beliggenhet rett mellom Long Street og Greenmarketsquare. Anbefales!

A localização do hotel é ótima. A equipe também foi atenciosa. No entanto, o banheiro deixa a desejar. A cortina de plástico não impede que o chão molhe bastante durante um banho. O café da manhã é bom, mas podiam variar um pouco mais de um dia para outro. Além do mais, se há salada de frutas todos os dias, poderiam oferecer suco natural com as frutas […] disponíveis.
