We went to The Capital Mirage on the 13th to 17th December 2023 for Our 35th Wedding Anniversary . We had a challenge with Our Shuttle at the airport, Marco one of the staff organized one to pick us up. The entire staff was so welcoming and very professional. They make you feel at home. The rooms are clean and well maintained. Our room was facing the Lions.Heard Mountain and other amenities within the walking distance. Origin Café is the best for Breakfast although it's not within the hotel. Your freshly squeezed Ginger Shot is the best. We will highly recommend the hotel to our friends and family. Thank You.

Highly recommend. Came to Cape Town for some last minute business and being familiar with The Capital group I chose to stay here. Exceeded my expectations - the rooms are large with a modern design, the staff are beyond helpful and the additional facilities such as the rooftop area and gym are an added bonus.
