Absolutely loved our stay at the Tropicana, it’s a modern hotel in a great location with restaurants cafes and bars all walkable distance. The rooms were clean, had security at the entrance and was very convenient having the juno cafe next door. Only downside was the top floor pool is quite small but there are several pools by the pavilion if you want to go swimming.

Property is well maintained and clean. The area seemed to be very safe. Close to a Hop-on Hop-off bus stop (4 minute walk). Grocery store, pharmacies, coffee shops and restaurants nearby. Very close to beach.

Clean, comfortable & well positioned. Unfortunately breakfast was not included and the bed is only a double but worth what you pay.

Undiscovered gem
I've been to Cape Town dozens of times. We happened to decide to stay here. The beach is superb. The views are great. Food good. Service very good. Not over-priced. Close to the airport. Perhaps the only down-side is that one is a bit far from Cape Town itself, but with access to a car (free parking) there should be no problem.

Tropicana
Hotel was generally nice and clean and great location however yhe location meant extremely noisy at night with windows not providing any sound proofing at all. Air Con only in main living area but this ended up being OK as the rooms were fairly cool.

A new property with a plunge pool on the top floor.
Our apartment was small but adequate for our 6 night stay.
Ideally located for the beachside promenade, restaurants, cafes, shops and buses to the V&A waterfront or Camps Bay (be prepared for a 30 minute wait).
There is a lot of construction work going on in the area so dont expect a lie in after 7.30.

Art-deco newness
Fresh & funky art-deco newness. Well appointed self-catered rooms that feels all new. However surprisingly the bed was creaky and sloppily springy so not the greatest of comfort there. Multiple construction across the roads in the area so if your'e a late sleeper this can be a rather big problem. Noise starts fairly early.

The staff at this hotel were very nice, very helpful. Our two bedroom apartment with sea view had a tiny balcony that was big enough for two people to stand outside and enjoy the view.
The balcony did not have any chairs and was not big enough for any enjoyment except for occasionally walking out to get a bit of fresh air.
The living/dining room had a table with two chairs and two stools. If four people were to stay here the seating would not have been sufficient because the couch was a tiny chaise lounge only big enough for one large man to sit on and no one could lay down on it.
The kitchen was exceptionally staffed with everything you would need to make a meal and the even provided olive oil for cooking and salt and pepper shakers.
The room was painted aqua blue and pink and I found it very cheerful. The beds were quite comfortable and they had lovely duvets. The A/C worked great.
The only negative two things were there were no outlet plugs in the bathroom for styling your hair (both bathrooms) and there was no full length mirror in the apartment.
For the money, this apartment was in a safe area near the beach and manmade pool on the beach that was nice.
Overall I would recommend this hotel for safety, accessible to groceries and shopping and cleanliness.

There is no air-conditioning in either of the bedrooms only in the living room. Having AC in the bedroom would be a great improvement.
