Not everyone on honeymoon has a huge budget, so I am happy to say that the New Kings Hotel in Seapoint offers incredible value for money. This brand new boutique hotel is situated within a small boutique shopping center which means you can get a Simply Asia take away for dinner and stay in or you can just have a morning coffee and watch the people.
The hotel itself is high 3 star with comfortably sized rooms. The open plan bathrooms will appeal to the honeymoon market and with a bath this size you definitely need to eat in!
Most of the rooms at the New Kings Hotel have at least partial views of the sea and it is a very easy 1 minute walk to the promenade for afternoon strolls as the sun goes down. This is an afternoon pasttime enjoyed by Capetonians throughout the year, so bring walking shoes and come join us!
There is a small breakfast room and balcony with sea views. Nothing overly elaborate, but the breakfast did look good. Eggs and hot breakfast is to order and the rest is buffet.
The New Kings Hotel is the type of hotel I would be happy to stay in when visiting Europe and I think that the owner has an interesting concept with the cute shopping center below the hotel. It has a very European feel. Definitely gets my stamp of approval for those with thinner pocketbooks.
NOTE: if you book this hotel through a tour operator you will get a much better rate than going direct.
