4-star garden hotel at the foot of Table Mountain in Cape Town

Dining & Culinary Experiences

The hotel operates three on-site dining venues: The Square Restaurant, Morii, and a garden lounge. The Square Restaurant is set under a striking glass roof and serves award-winning cuisine. Morii focuses on gourmet Italian dishes paired with South African wines made from Italian grape varietals.

Gardens & Wildlife

The property spans eight acres of landscaped gardens with tranquil pathways and a stream. Resident mountain tortoises roam freely across the grounds, offering a unique wildlife encounter. Throughout the hotel, guests can view a rotating collection of artworks by leading South African artists.

Wellness & Recreation

The on-site Angsana Spa provides a full menu of health and beauty treatments including massages, facials, and body wraps. A state-of-the-art fitness center, operated in partnership with Fitco, offers personal training and group classes. The hotel has two swimming pools - one indoor, one outdoor - both heated and open year-round.

Rooms & Accommodations

Guest rooms are available in categories such as Mountain View, Garden View, and Junior Suites, many featuring private balconies or patios. All rooms include a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, a casting device, and a mini-bar. Selected suites offer separate lounge areas and corner windows for added natural light.

Family-Friendly Amenities

The hotel offers babysitting and child care services for guests traveling with young children. Family rooms accommodate groups, and the restaurant provides a kids' meal menu. The eight-acre gardens with resident tortoises and birdlife create a safe, engaging outdoor space for children to explore.

good location spacious suite fresh fruit old room missing balcony ineffective air conditioning
the location is good. the suite was spacious. breakfast had everything i wanted, even fresh fruit that was abundant. the room had a private decking area.
our room was in the oldest part of the place and faced the mountain. the room seemed old and a little dark. there was no balcony and it was noisy. the shower did flood the bathroom and the air conditioning was not effective.
