Safe and convenient hotel locations in or around Cape Town
score:5
Accepted answer
Almost all hotels in Cape Town can be found in a few key locations, so you don't need to worry too much about which one is safer than the other.
the first location is around the waterfront, where several big hotels are location (I'll leave names out of this)
the second area is in the city centre, around the Company Gardens and Green Market square. Great location for some of the old sites of the city.
Finally, just around the corner down the coast you'll get pockets of hotels - in Sea Point (where I stayed last time I was there), Barry's Bay and Camps Bay. All are fairly safe (for Cape Town - everything is relative, of course), and more importantly than location, you'll want to make sure your hotel has off-street (locked) parking with key-access.
