Mount Nelson, A Belmond Hotel, Cape Town
Road Lodge Cape Town International Airport
Room was in good condition. Very small but sufficient for a simple place to sleep. No drinking water provided (for sale by the bottle at front desk). Staff was very nice and the entire hotel was clean. Sort of a tight dormitory feel overall. Super convenient proximity to airport.
