Whilst it wasn't beach going weather when we visited, the view of the Twelve Apostles mountain range is stunning.
Part of an unforgettable day tour from Cape Town Waterfront to Cape Point.

I feel reluctant to write a positive review about this hotel as I want to keep it for myself! From arrival to check out we had a fantastic time at this special hotel from check in to the food and comfy bedrooms. The restaurant and staff were simply the best, with sparkling wine of tap for breakfast to set you up for the day. Terrace for breakfast and main restaurant for dinner worked well. Aperol Spritz and Negroni cocktails were spot on. The Pool area at the front give you a good sea view and lovely sunset. We are coming back next year.... Big thank you and congratulations to the full team

These twelve rocky butresses are part of the Table mountain range that continues southward from Cape Town. They form a beautiful dramatic backdrop to the beaches on the Atlantic side of the Cape peninsula. It is possible to hike through these massive rock formations. The most popular trail is called the Tranquility Cracks hike. It starts halfway Cape Town and Hout Bay.

What a treat! A warm welcome, lovely rooms, beautiful view, scrumptious Covid-sensitive breakfast. A good night’s rest in absolute luxury. The staff were exceptionally friendly and efficient. The high tea is highly recommended.

I did the gin making course at The Conservatory
Byron our host and entertainer was fantastic. It would not have been the same without him.

Just went for a lovely massage but the rest of spa is closed to spa visitors - no shower, pool, jacuzzi, drinks, etc. as we used in the past visits. For the cost (R1100 for 60 mins) I expected the full spa package. Guess it’s only for hotel guests now bc of covid. Should let guests know and adjust prices accordingly. 🤨

I have just returned home from a Mother /Daughter weekend away at your awesome Hotel, excited to write this review.
Working in Client service myself, I was awestruck by the excellent service, and attention to detail the staff gave us during our stay.
Finely dressed gentlemen on the Port Cochere, greeting us by name and so energetic to serve us,
Patience France at the main reception, making us feel like royalty,
House Keeping, fast and efficient service (knocking at our door under 5 minutes for all our petty requests!)
The atmosphere of passionate excellence was created by all staff which made our weekend away ….. unforgettable!

Can't comment on shuttle options, but there are taxis and busses that can get you to the Waterfront and Table Mountain.
