Lonely Planet "Offering clean, contemporary design, POD is perfectly angled to catch the Camps Bay action from its bar and spacious pool and deck area. The cheapest rooms have mountain rather than sea views; luxury." Full review
Frommer's "Entering POD is like stepping into the pages of a slick design magazine... and the marvelously svelte model-and-gym-rat set crowding the nearby bars and beaches." Full review

"Pod is an uber-hip 17-room boutique hotel near Camps Bay’s beachfront, staffed with a small, intelligent team." Full review
Jetsetter "Sleek, modern boutique that makes service a priority, just one block from the beach in chichi Camps Bay." Full review
Fodor's "This sexy designer boutique hotel enjoys a great location on a quiet corner just a block from Camps Bay's main drag." Full review

For good value for the money, choose a luxury room with a view (rather than with a private pool), as the hotel's infinity pool on the deck with great ocean views is a preferable splash anyway.
Afar Magazine "The POD boutique hotel is one of these special properties...unique landscape of this suburb and location of the hotel provides guests the privacy and quiet they are looking for during their stay. " Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "A conveniently located bolthole, set back from the busy Camps Bay beachfront without missing out on the cool vibe and ocean views, especially if you don’t want to hire a car." Full review

Choose a movie and get complimentary room-service delivery of popcorn and other snacks.
Frommer's "Entering POD is like stepping into the pages of a slick design magazine, complete with ingeniously shaped spaces, decadent furnishings, and the marvelously svelte model-and-gym-rat set crowding the nearby bars and beaches" Full review

Time Out "Designed to cater for fun-loving adrenaline junkies (the 'climber' fixed to the wall outside should be a clue), the design gimmicks here add a fun element to one's overall experience." Full review
Lonely Planet "Yes, that exclamation mark is justified! The Protea hotel chain thought outside of the box when designing this place that takes Cape Town’s adventurous, party-hard spirit as inspiration." Full review

"Has a steady business traveler clientele and... host frequent conferences, but it brands itself as a wild party spot with a bar that features live music." Full review
Fodor's "Initially built as a highly themed hotel—interior elements like elevators kitted out as a shark cage underwater or a Table Mountain cable car mid-journey, and a "climbing wall" still exist." Full review
