Fountains Hotel Cape Town Review
The 4-star Fountains Hotel Cape Town is located in the very heart of City Bowl, defined by the mountains of Signal Hill, Lion's Head, Table Mountain and Devil's Peak, a 10-minute ride from Victoria & Alfred Waterfront, and features harbour views. Boasting a location a few minutes drive from the cobbled Greenmarket Square, this smoke-free hotel comprises 167 rooms and 2 restaurants.
A delicious buffet breakfast may be served either in the restaurant or in rooms. Also, this Cape Town hotel features a terrace bar. The property is 250 metres of Sea Palace Chinese Restaurant, offering dishes of Chinese cuisine.
The property has a central setting at a 1.4 km distance from Two Oceans Aquarium, while natural sights like Green Point Park are 10 minutes' drive away. The flat-topped Table Mountain in Cape Town is within a 15-minute drive of the Fountains.
The area features a number of shopping sites such as Cape Town International Convention Centre not so far from the accommodation.
Some of the non-smoking rooms have a balcony and a place for dining, and such facilities as complimentary wireless internet and a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, along with a mini-fridge-bar and a coffee maker.
