The rooms were very big. Staff were friendly and helpful. Whilst the first room didn’t have aircon they did do the next best thing and put a big standing fan next to the bed, before I had to ask.
I loved the friendly service and the gorgeous rooms. The hotel is situated near convenient amenities. Friendliest service I have experienced in my entire time in the Cape Town.
The check in process was easy and I was allocated a great room on the 5th floor. Very spacious room with a lounge and I enjoyed me stay. I would recommend and go there again.
My stay at the colosseum luxury hotel was phenomenal. The staff was accommodating, amazing and wonderful. The room was clean, beautiful and perfect. It was HOME for 10 amazing days in South Africa. Thank you everyone
Hotel with a beautiful location and exterior but outdated and poorly maintained on the inside. The rooms are extremely outdated, poor lighting that does not work well, toilets need a proper scrub, bathroom doors used as room doors in the 2 bed apartment. though the front desk staff have excellent service - Delano and Ronelle stood out.
we checked in, not a family room, asked for a family room, none was available, Bath was situated in the open where the bed is, we had our 7 yr daughter with us, no TV in the room, furniture was horrible, not comfortable at all. Although what I can say was positive was the staff members that assisted us. Luca is a great asset to your business
The service was exceptional and the room exquisite and luxurious.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
This place was so far from luxury. Extremely narrow hallways smelling of smoke. Rooms with cheap parquet and filthy upholstery and you could hear every word from the hallway. We checked out within a few hours of check in, it was so cringeworthy.
Loved staying at the Colosseum Hotel. Clean and staff are friendly. However, the Hotel has a tired look and is in desperate need of an update. Everything is exactly the same as 20 years ago and nothing has been upgraded,
