My visit to H&M at the Victoria & Alfred (V&A) Waterfront in Cape Town was a delightful shopping experience that epitomized the blend of fashion, affordability, and convenience that H&M is renowned for. As I entered the store, I was immediately struck by its stylish and well-organized layout. The spacious and well-lit interior created an inviting atmosphere that made browsing and shopping a pleasure. H&M's commitment to offering a diverse range of fashion styles for men, women, and children was evident, ensuring there was something to suit every taste and occasion. The selection of clothing, accessories, and footwear was extensive, and the ability to mix and match items allowed for a personalized shopping experience. Whether I was in search of trendy fashion pieces, wardrobe staples, or seasonal essentials, H&M had a wide array of options that catered to various fashion preferences. What makes H&M at the V&A Waterfront particularly appealing is its strategic location. Situated in the heart of Cape Town's iconic waterfront, it provides a convenient shopping destination for both tourists exploring the area and locals seeking stylish and affordable fashion. The store's commitment to sustainability, as seen in its conscious fashion collections and recycling initiatives, adds an admirable dimension to the shopping experience. In conclusion, my visit to H&M at the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront was a fashion-forward journey that combined style, affordability, and accessibility. Whether you're looking to refresh your wardrobe or simply enjoy a shopping excursion in a beautiful setting, H&M at the V&A Waterfront in Cape Town is a fantastic choice that promises a rewarding shopping experience.

This is one of the branches in the city. It's a good shopping experience. The international brand has a lot of fashionable items keeping in with the current trends. The quality of the items are great and they do stock a wide range of clothing, active wear, underwear, shoes and accessories. The store is quite big with two floors, the women's clothing section is on the first floor and stocks a lot of new items, as well as lot of sale items which are the last of the sellers, especially at the change of seasons. The prices are not low but the prices are competitive in relation to other stores. There is always someone of the floor to assist and there are enough tills open for paying so the wait in the line is not too long as the store gets really bust. Overall a good shopping experience as they have good clothes.

If I could I would rate it zero. They honestly need to make sure that the ladies fitting room is operational, this nonsense of sharing a fitting room with men is uncalled for. Today I went there to buy a few items and had to use the fitting room. 2 minutes in, some random guy tried opening my curtain into the cubicle I was in. I had to shout that someone was occupying it for them to finally leave. Like it’s not bad enough that we have to share a fitting room with males there should at least be someone monitoring and controlling the usage of the fitting rooms. This is so unacceptable! I will surely not be using that fitting room until they make the female one operational.

  • Madame Shugga D Rosenbloom

For the 1st time I finally made a purchase. I am pleased. However because of COVID the dressing rooms are closed, so I have to buy and try. Being so tall, I was in search of full length pants. Ask the sales rep and she had no idea where I could find any pants for tall ladies. I happily settled for a beautiful blouse and black jeans. The store is full of sales, so I breezed through the store cautiously, not wanting to overload my credit card or luggage. Customer service was kool. This is very important to me. Oh I was so amused to see a tanned shopper with no shoes. shorts, wraped scarf and a long sleeve pullover. It's winter here, but it doesn't brother her. Lolol

  • being brave

I've been trying to purchase 4 mens sweaters at over R350 for our therapists at our charity - for over a week.

  • Ramaesela Manku

Very disappointed about their service, my daughter was inconvenient after purchasing clothes and the transaction was successful, she was told that, she cannot get her clothes bcs the money is not reflecting on their side. Is now two weeks without refund, went to the bank to get the statement, and the money was taken. Im not happy at all, my daughter did not attend the event bcs she was inconvenient, there was no clothes for her. Very disappointed

  • Toni Cooke

The service in this store is pathetic. There's always either just one (most of the times) or two people on the till. One would think a store of this calibre would treat customer service as a priority but sadly it's lacking in this department. I have addressed this with a manager on several occasions and clearly my concerns are not being taken seriously. It really spoils what shouldve been a pleasant shopping experience.

  • Clayton Pieters

Trendy shop that started as cheap but are expensive now. Wide variety of clothing for everyone, kids, men, sport and women. Also a variety of homeware. I normally shop at H&M only sale time. They have one of the best retailing sales during the year. Great staff members always willing to assist customers. Always clean shop too. Keep up the good work H&M.

  • Kevin Rossi

Came shopping here the other day for clothes. H&M closed the fitting rooms, the sales lady advised that i purchase clothes and fit them on at home first and return them if they didn't fit. When i did come back, the sales lady refused to refund me! Her attitude was revolting in general, she didn't even care if i was about to spend my hard earned money at H&M !! I will never go there again

  • B D

I have been going to this store for years and always had a good experience. Love the quality and variety of the clothing, but the shoes not so much. They often have a sale, more so at end of season which always thrills me! Also love the sportswear section, I have found that they are the only H&M location who stock sportswear in Cape Town. What's that about?

  • Laura J

H&M (Victoria & Alfred Waterfront) Men's clothes shop. Men's clothes shop? That's the descriptor you use on FB. Interesting ... Three men managing the female change-room today at the V&A. Leering at the female clientele (twelve and thirteen year olds present). F.Y.I: SOME. OF. US .DON'T. LIKE. IT. BEST YOU GET ONTO THIS AND TAKE IT SERIOUSLY.

  • Munira Hoosain

One of the busiest stores in Cape Town. Has a great selection of clothing and homewear. Trendy clothes at an affordable price. It can be quite busy and difficult to get service, and a little chaotic. Otherwise a good place to shop for women's, men's and children's clothing. Also has a homeware section unlike other H&M stores in Cape Town.

  • Carey Singer

The pricing is reasonable and the quality is great for the price. The shop had a wide range of clothing, from formal wear to sports wear to basics such a plain shirts. The changing rooms could be maintained better (the reason for a 4 and not a 5). The staff are helpful when asked.

  • Fayrouz Fataar

Got everything I needed except shoes. Great store, affordable options and good quality clothing but barely any ladies shoes. This is not because there was no stock left but because the shoe section is literally a metre wide set of 3 shelves. That was so dissapointing.

  • Wilfred Reurink

H&M allways was our favorite clothes store in The Netherlands, and it still is in South Africa. We have to go to Capetown though. Of course each atyle is its own, but we like it. Affordable and stylish. Fitting room is open again afyer covid rates are down now.

  • Valerie Cupido

Lovely shop to visit if you want to buy something special. Large selection of items and the latest styles. From kids to adult clothing and accessories. Large variety of design clothing and bags to choose from. Lovely big store with multiple floors to shop.

  • Jonathan Garisch

Very suspect quality. Shirt ran after the first wash, colour didn't hold. Another purchase had a random chunk of fabric attached to the collar. Have no idea how it was cleared for retail. Ignored on social media when I made an enquiry about it

  • Bernhardt Louw

Trendy clothing at a great price. Not THE best quality, but it's more than adequate for what you pay. That being said, they do have their premium lines which are quite expensive but are top quality. The cut of a shirt is always good.

  • S SS

Ok so besides one or two employees, I have to say that the majority are plain LAZY!!! Trevor is just AMAZINGLY, don't have to ask for the extra mile, goes out of his way to assist, and, with a smile!! Definitely Management material

  • Alain Flury

It seems that the Cape Town branch receives the eurpean LEFTOVERS from last season, or even a few seasons before ? The choice is miserable and in their ocean of T-Shirts from Bangla Desh, you can't even find a basic white one.

  • Jacques Du Plessis

They keep removing items from shelves one day and then place them back another. Saw something I wanted and went back the next day to buy it and it was gone. Yet, when I returned a few days later it was back on the shelf.

  • Muhammad Manuel

Very well organised store with woman's range at the bottom and mens, kiddies, and home range on the second floor. Very affordable and always a sale available. The staff is a different story, unprofessional and rude.

  • Muntie Gala

I love H&M, but the one in Cavendish is not nice to shop in, no one to serve you and if there is staff they rather watch you like you going to steal something, just have a dislike in the store in Cavendish.

  • AshleyJurius

Great quality clothing at fantastic prices. Everything under one roof. Men's wear, ladies wear, kids wear, all in one place, neatly organised with excellent customer service. Hi five to the staff at H&M

  • TheLostNomad

Good shopping experience, however the changing rooms may need better curtains as they do not offer enough privacy as they aren't big enough, other than that small problem I'd recommend shopping here.

  • Farzaanah Rajie

Quality clothing at affordable prices...a very wide range of homeware, and also a kiddies department that has everything from clothing to footwear and all kinds of character items and accessories.

  • Adrian Goliath

Pathetic service, the staff are absolutely useless. They also don't accept Amex, which isn't too bad if they were helpful enough to direct me to a bank. Long story short...my last h&m experience

  • Jodie Alport

I just wanted to use this as an opportunity to acknowledge the security guard at the entrance of H&M. She makes the experience so pleasant and lovely from the moment you’re entering the door.

  • Gert Engelbrecht

The shop is conveniently situated in the Waterfront's Mall. There is a nice array of clothing and home goods on sale. We bought some items that were on special. I will recommend this shop.

  • Kiasha Pillay

Walked into the shop for the first time today, and was so excited, certain tops were pretty reasonable, and got a pair of jeans for a steal. The lady at the counter was really friendly too

  • Albrecht Ch.

This store is huge! Especially the men’s department is amongst the largest I’ve seen over the world. Staff is friendly, except the ones at the cashiers desk... a smile would do a lot ;)

  • Tammy Germany

Yay finally in SA! Great choices but must say the changing room mirrors are possibly the worst in the world (surely they want u to look good?) And the sizes - what's up with that?

  • Annemarie Joubert

How is this possible that we have not learned yet that the world do not exist because of China? I had to really searched high and low to get underwear not made in China. Very sad

  • James Russell

This year's men's clothing range is totally uninspired & boring. However the H&M bedlinen range is inspired, but the rest of their homeware range could do with some work.

  • Gareth Davidson

Quality at affordable prices. What's not to like. Also no branding splashed all over the clothing. Nice to buy something of quality and not feel like a walking billboard

  • Louise Turketti

I just really want to compliment the staff. I was there over a weekend on a Saturday and every single staff member greeted the customers so friendly. I love this store!

  • Eliza Faul

This H&M store has a very wide variety of clothing and accessories at affordable prices. Service is excellent. Located inside the V&A mall at the Cape Town Waterfront.

  • Jay Chen

The staff service is average. The clothing selection is average too. But they always have many quantities on display. One can encounter sales or clearances when lucky.

  • Therese Hills

Disappointed in the range of clothing at the moment at H&M. Cannot find anything for the 40/50 ladies range. Very boring. Sorry H&M you need to raise your game.

  • Ed Bysshe

Well presented store with easy access to all areas. One can return bags of old clothes to gain discount vouchers. I did not like their men's suits - too scruffy

  • Pierrie' Bezuidenhout

Some ventilation in store would be nice. Would've stayed and spent more money as the offerings are great but being in a hot box takes the fun out of shopping.

  • Jaydee Deary

Very disappointing as I checked online and they had all these amazing specials on and when I got there no suck thing..... .boo something about the online sepr

  • Percy Martin

Retail store with various branches. This particular one is very near and well laid out. I would think the target market is more the model to upper income.

  • Centregroup Technologies

This H&M store offers many clothing options. Came in very handy for grabbing a last minute hoodie to survive the unpredictable Cape Town weather.

  • Ria Dup

Large variety of woman's clothing. Good quality and good pricing. Store was clean. Was, however, hoping to find a larger maternity wear section.

  • Rohann De Bruin

No one around to help in menswear. No sizes available 36 and up in jeans. Poor shopping experience. Left empty handed and went to Woolworths

  • Ebrahim Rose

Good variety of apparel. Lots of kids clothing options and they often have sale. Ladies and mens clothing selections are great too.

  • rayne weiss

Every single time I go to H&M for either recycling clothes or to buy clothes I wait up to 15 - 20 minutes in line or at the till.

  • Leani Jacobs

Staff has been rude almost every time. Tills are so slow. If it wasnt for the beautiful clothes probably wouldnt have gone back

  • Yasmin Rahbeeni

H&M gives u really value for ur money always have a good experience finding items I like there variety large selection …

Very good quality,indoor ware ONLY.I wreck clothes outdoors, so dont buy here. Casual home ware. New fabrics, & styles.

  • Carmen-Amy Van der Vyver

There is a lack in variety, particularly in the "men's" section. Enough changing rooms, not usually too long of a wait.

  • Fundiswa Ngomani

Great store, affordable prices. I popped in while on vacation and I got what I needed, good service and good prices.

  • Nic Gibson

Great range of quality and good value products. Store is huge with all departments covered including kids and home.

  • Jason Cannon

Great fashion option at a good quality and well priced. The local 'high street' stores need to review their margins

  • M-C H

There is no H&M at that location. The closest one is on the Victoria side. Don't waste your time trying to find it.

  • Yamkela Sibango

Poor customer service. I regret buying staff there they double charged me, now they don't want to repay me! …

Lovely place! Amazing service from the manager. We bought lots present and staff very helpful and friendly.

  • Daniel Schilperoort

Great store with loads of stock. But the actual venue seems to small. Everything is quite cramped in there.

  • Moganne Anaïs

A big difference between H&M south Africa and Europe less choices and the plus size section is just rail.

  • Lusanda Myata

It's very clean nice staff and the service is perfect like the range of variety of style I like this shop
