Hotel Verde Cape Town Airport
This is one of the nicest, if not the nicest, airport hotels in the world. Grounds are lovely. You don't realize you are a short walk to airport. Highest recommendation

Radisson RED V&A Waterfront, Cape Town
Very hard bed. Sent us to the wrong room the first time. Staff seemed bothered that I insisted on getting what I paid for. Also didn’t receive the free bottle of wine I was supposed to get. I was hoping Radisson only sucked in the U.S. but I guess it’s universal.

President Hotel
Tiny room, no actual sea views. Staff unhelpful.
