excellent breakfast

Had an awesome time with friends staying in a fantastic Standard Queen Room. We played golf at Arabella with breathtaking views and enjoyed shopping nearby. The breakfast was excellent and staff were super helpful. The free shuttle made it easy to explore. Just keep in mind, the wifi could use a boost.

The hotel served as a fantastic base for exploring Cape Town, being just a short walk away from Bree Street, which is filled with cool shops and eateries. The V&A Waterfront, where I caught stunning views of the harbour and Table Mountain from the nearby Cape Wheel.

Our stay at Southern Sun The Cullinan was fantastic! The breakfast spread was amazing with plenty of options, and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making our experience even better. The location is perfect, just a short walk to the Waterfront, and the complimentary shuttle was a great bonus for dinner outings.

The fitness center was a bit small.

The grand lobby with its soaring columns felt so welcoming, making it easy for me to navigate despite some mobility challenges. The classical décor was charming, and I appreciated the thoughtful accessibility throughout the hotel.

More comfortable seating in common areas would help.
