About Waterfront

Waterfront is a bus station in Green Point, on the flat shelf between Signal Hill and the Atlantic, wedged between the harbour and Sea Point. It is the walkable Atlantic-side base for the stadium, the park and the promenade, with the CBD and the Waterfront both fifteen minutes on foot. People come here because Green Point is one of the few genuinely alive, genuinely walkable pieces of Cape Town at 9pm: runners still on the promenade under the lights, tables full on Main Road, the Cape Town Stadium bowl lit up if the Stormers or Cape Town City are at home. Somerset Road at the De Waterkant end is the historic centre of the city's gay nightlife, and Cape Quarter on Waterkant Street handles the calmer dinner version. Competition among close to a hundred places to sleep here means value.

Tips for staying near Waterfront

  • Check whether the Stormers or Cape Town City are at home at the Cape Town Stadium: on match days the bowl is lit up, Main Road tables fill and the promenade is busier, so book a table and your room early.
  • For early flights, the closest hotels are all within a 3 to 11-minute walk of Waterfront, so you can leave the car and roll your bag rather than dealing with the block grid at rush hour.
  • If you are driving, several listed hotels have their own parking: Dock House Boutique Hotel & Spa by NEWMARK, The Manor House at the Queen Victoria Hotel by NEWMARK, Queen Victoria Hotel by NEWMARK and Victoria & Alfred Hotel by NEWMARK all offer free car parking.
  • Avoid ground-floor rooms on Main Road, where traffic and taxi hooters start at 5.30am, and anything within 100 metres of the Somerset Road club noise if you want an early night.
  • In January, when summer demand is at its peak, book sea-facing rooms and the highest-rated addresses such as the 4.8-scoring The Manor House at the Queen Victoria Hotel by NEWMARK well ahead.
