Hotel description
In cosmopolitan Cape Town's city centre, Hippo Boutique is a chic boutique hotel in the trendiest part of town, offering seriously comfortable rooms and generous attention to detail. This 20-room hotel stands atop three café-style restaurants on Kloof street that draw the city's see-and-be-seen crowd and is just a stone's throw away from the city's best clubs and bars. Public spaces are adorned with natural materials - cherrywood floors, leather sofas, unfinished-stone walls - and black-and-white photographs of eighties supermodels. Hippo Boutique has quickly become one of the city's coolest hotels.
All 20 rooms have unstinting quality and attention to detail; seriously comfortable and not just merely convenient. Details like fine cotton linen, king size beds, leather couches, cherry wood floors and interior design let you breathe a little deeper. Bathrooms have underfloor heating and all rooms have multimedia personal computers with Microsoft Office Software and sliding panels reveal a kitchenette with a fridge and microwave.
You can also relax at the small pool or step out of doors and find yourself in the middle of the Cape's famed café culture. There's no need to venture far for world-class cuisine - downstairs from Hippo are 3 exceptional offerings... Greens specialises in fresh, modern food, Figaro DelicaBar offers exquisite boutique eating and Simply Asia will satisfy a craving for authentic Thai food.
Location
The Hippo Boutique hotel is ideally located in the hub of Cape Town just minutes away from the Table Mountain cableway, the city centre and the V&A Waterfront. The world-renowned beaches, Clifton and Camps Bay, are just 5 minutes drive and the local winelands are just 15 minutes drive. The area around the hotel is excellent for clubbing.

"Das Hotel befindet sich in einer sicheren Lage in welcher auch am Abend problemlos zu Fuss die Longstreet erreicht werden kann. Im Hotel selber hat es 3 Restaurants. Ich ziehe diese Lage definitiv der touristischen Waterfront vor. Die Zimmer sind grosszuegig und haben alle einen Computer mit Internetzugang. Zudem hat man eine kleine Kueche mit Kaffemaschine, Kuehlschrank und Geschirr. Einziger Negativer Punkt ist die Laermsituation. Ich hatte zwei verschiedene Zimmer. Einmal Front, da hat man den Laerm des einen Restaurants welches vor allem am Wochenende ein beliebter Treffpunkt ist. Das 2. Zimmer war zwar nach Hinten aber auch hier war es nicht wirklich ruhig, obwohl die Laermquellen andere waren. Trotzdem wuerde ich wieder hier buchen und einfach die Ohrstoepsel nicht vergessen."

"Emplacement idéal pour profiter de sa soirée, tout peut se faire a pied. Nous avons aimé le PC avec internet gratuit dans la chambre, la décoration des parties communes, le parking gratuit et securisé, la proximité de Long Street. Nous avons moins aimé notre chambre donnant sur l'entrée voiture et la rue (chambre 118), les produits d'accueil dans la salle de bains, le petit-déjeuner non inclus."
