## Our read

Southern Sun Waterfront is the Lower Buitengracht hotel, a 10-minute walk from the V&A, with a complimentary shuttle as well. The beach is a drive. Come if that precinct is the Cape Town you want. Skip it if you needed the sand, or if you meant Cullinan Street.

## Come here for

- A 10-minute walk to the V&A, the Zeitz, and the aquarium
- A complimentary shuttle to the Waterfront, if you would rather not walk
- Yizani, and one outdoor pool

## Skip it if

- You wanted the beach at the door. The page says the beach is a short drive.
- You wanted Cullinan Street. That hotel has 394 rooms and a heated pool.
