Our take on The PortsWood Hotel

We found that the PortsWood is a good option for those who want an affordable 4-star hotel on the Waterfront. Location is the main selling point for this hotel. It does not boast the most beautiful gardens or the most spacious lounge areas, but if you intend on spending your time out and about, this hotel is perfectly suitable as a base from which to explore the many attractions in and around Cape Town. We can arrange transfers for you from Cape Town International Airport (25 kilometres away), or a rental car if you prefer to drive yourself around.
