Reviews and Ratings
Overall, the hotel has stunning views and offers a unique artistic environment, but certain aspects like noise and service could be improved. The dining experiences were highlighted as excellent, but the room features and housekeeping left a bit to be desired. While it felt luxurious in certain areas, it lacked the consistency expected for the price.
My experience at 21 Nettleton was a mix of stunning highs and disappointing lows. The hotel is nestled in a breathtaking location with phenomenal views of the Atlantic, and the staff genuinely go out of their way to make you feel special. However, I did encounter a confrontation with management that put a damper on an otherwise magical stay. Overall, the combination of luxurious amenities and exceptional service, alongside a troubling incident, leaves me conflicted about a return visit.
My stay at 21 Nettleton was an unforgettable experience. The views were spectacular and the hotel had a wonderfully intimate atmosphere with only six rooms to ensure personal attention. However, while the staff was incredible, my experience was marred by an unfortunate interaction with management during a stressful time. Overall, the hotel offers high value for money given the luxurious amenities and stunning location.
I had an absolutely flawless stay at this hotel, which is perfectly situated in Cape Town with breathtaking views. The rooms were spacious and beautifully furnished, making me feel right at home. The dining experience was exceptional, especially with the talented chef creating delicious meals. Though the service was stellar, there were minor touch-ups needed in the rooms. Overall, this place offers great value for money and I'm excited to return for another amazing experience.
My stay at 21 Nettleton was absolutely magical! The personalized service and incredible views made it unforgettable. The rooms are spacious and beautifully furnished, though a couple of touch-ups wouldn’t hurt. The dining experience was truly exceptional, but I noticed some dishes could use a little more variety. Overall, it was an incredible value for the luxurious experience we received.
