Pour un hôtel 4 étoiles, les services fournis devraient adaptés à tout type de clients et non seulement anglophones. Lorsque cela n'est pas possible essayez de proposer une carte menu bilingue. Proposez toujours aux clients s'ils veulent faire un deposit ou non plus tôt que d'avoir à dire à un client, qui signe sa note sur sa chambre qu'il n'a pas de provision et doit payer immédiatement apres consommation. Pour moi, c'est une déception.

The hotel is well appointed and conveniently located on the Cape Town waterfront. Our room was very large, clean and quiet. The bar and restaurant served excellent cocktails and food, but what really made our stay perfect was the staff. From the front desk to the doormen to the waiters and bartenders, everyone was cheerful, helpful and accommodating. I would highly recommend AC Hotel Marriott.
