A well located and equipped hotel

We stayed in the hotel twice, with a brief trip to Safari in between (the hotel was happy to hold one bad in between which was much appreciated). It's a very well located hotel, so close to some fantastic bars, coffee shops and restaurants (Rosetta Roastery, Nikkei & Clarkes particular local highlights for us). The rooftop bar and pool is a lovely spot to watch the sun go down. The staff were all very friendly and helpful and we would happily return.

We absolutely loved our time at the Trade. The rooms were adorable and fully equipped with everything you could ever need. The staff were lovely and accommodating and the area was so lively and vibrant. The street gets a bit loud as there are a few bars across the street so definitely be prepared; bring ear plugs and ask for a quieter room on weekends if you’re a light sleeper. All in all 10/10. We wish we had a Trade in our city!

Central location!

We really enjoyed our stay, the staff were very friendly & helpful. The rooms were like an apart hotel. Service and food in the restaurant were good. The roof top was lovely but windy.

Not sure why no other review has mentioned this--the hotel faces a bar that has an outdoor patio and features live music from 8pm to 2am seven days a week. The noise level is unbearable.

Staff were great. Everything was top. A little too quiet for my liking, but it was very nice. Pool deck was enjoyable when it wasn’t windy. I would recommend a hot tub instead of a pool. The pool is a hot tub size and was chilly.

Lovely hotel

I would definitely stay here again if I was in Cape Town. The location is very good for restaurants and bars. The hotel was also clean and the staff were very helpful. The breakfast selection and restaurant attached to the hotel was also good!
