Radisson Blu Le Vendome Hotel

The rooms are dull and old

breakfast was ok . bed comfy.

breakfast on the first day (Sat) was hectic, tables, cutlery etc. not available for long periods. Eggs to order were slow. Our room required some upgrading. Elevators need refurbished. Old and slow.TV reception hit and miss.

Shuttle Service to waterfront each hour is very usefull + Airport shuttle ( this last one is for payment, but it's quite good too)

unacceptable room cleaning service!!! . it's on hostel level!!! but with very big difference in price. first day i found someone's hairs in the bathtub, in my bed, inside of coffee cup and pubic hair on the towel near bidet. called receiptionist, they sent staff to change bed sheet and to clean the bathtube.. hairy cup and bidet towel remained there. called them again. they changed coffee cups (obviously i would not drink from them again), towel remained there.. later i saw that bathrobe had grey spots and next morning i left it and hairy towel on the floor. they took it away and didnt substitute.. the morning after i noticed that bed sheet which they put had a big spot in feet's zone ( since they fix blanket under mattress i didnt see it immediatelly.) and since i had to leave early for guided tour i had no time to call receptionist again ( and sincerly no desire, i came in vacation and had only problems instead of relax) , i left that big spot " at sight" to show i noticed all ( thanks, i slept on the dirty sheets..) and when i came back in the evening it has been changed. apart from that i can tell that it's very uncomfortable to take shower there: shower nozzle is attached to the wall in the uneven part of the tub and every time when you take a shower you risk slipping and breaking your head. as well you cannot use bathtube because there is no cap, only dangerous shower .. the sink drain was blocked and the water didn't go down, so you had to watch a puddle of dirty water for half an hour.. remember if you go in this hotel ( they tell 4 stars) bring with you disposable slippers, because they arent offering it to their clients, you have to bring them with you from other part of world and go directly to hostel: you'll save money and didnt notice difference. what i want to tell it's not a level of 4* hotel, it's a hostel level. in all my life never had such service.

I like the fact that we stayed at the Radisson Blu. This because of our experiences at the same hotel group in Paris and London.

I didn't like the bathroom, the two bath towels and no hand towels, the balcony railings that needs major attention, it so rusted that if you lean against it, it moves, definitely not safe if you on the 7th floor. Breakfast was a nightmare, 20 mins to be seated, 15 more minutes to get the table setup, no cereal bowls, no spoons, no condiment holder for sugar etc. If Cape Town is the tourist destination, than Your hotel needs to jack it's service up a few notches.

Location.

The room was dirty, with some doors not working properly Breakfast could be improved, no variety. Reception ladies could do with some peoples skill
