With Table Mountain as its backdrop and views of the marina, Cape Grace Hotel is a five-star accommodation with uniquely decorated rooms, superb cuisine and a prime location in the heart of Cape Town’s natural beauty. Designed to be a botanical haven, Cape Grace is a breath of fresh air within easy reach to the attractions and restaurants of Cape Town’s waterfront.


Location

The hotel sits on a private quay between Cape Town’s V&A Waterfront and the marina. From its perfectly central location, guests can explore Table Mountain, Robben Island and many of the city’s museums, restaurants and markets.

Rooms

There are 120 rooms and suites, each individually decorated with views of the marina, harbor or Table Mountain. Interiors are spacious and range from Luxury, Superior, Two and Three Bedroom Suites and Rooftop Rooms. Each is uniquely decorated with a mixture of antiques and vibrant touches from chandeliers and botanical illustrations adorning the walls to oversized clocks and hand-painted curtains. En-suites have bathrubs, showers and bespoke toiletries centered around the hotel’s own fynbos-scented perfume. For added luxury, there are two Penthouse Suites which boast jacuzzi’s on large private terraces and wonderful views of the waterfront.

Communal Areas

Guests can dine on innovative dishes at the Signal Restaurant and relish sunset views from the Signal Bar. Drinks can also be enjoyed at the popular Bascule whiskey, wine and cocktail bar where breakfast and light lunches are also served. The lounge area is full of plush sofas, coffee tables and a fireplace with artwork and artefacts filling the space. Take afternoon tea in the library or cool off by the swimming pool and outdoor terrace.

Activities

Take a cruise on the Hotel’s private motor yacht, ‘The Spirit of the Cape’, to cruise to Cape Point, Robben Island or Hout Bay. Guests have the luxury of choosing their own route. Cape Town itself has many attractions and activities on offer such as the Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens, local craft markets and cable car rides to the trop of Table Mountain. For trips further afield, head out to the Winelands or Cape Point to experience the resident penguins at Boulders Beach.

The hotel also boasts its own spa with African-influenced treatments.

SUMMER

Ideal weather with mainly clear skies, very little rainfall and little wind. Midday temperatures will generally reach highs of around 25°C/77°F, occasionally going over 32°C/90°F. Nights are warm but comfortable.

As with the rest of the Western Cape, the Cape Town can be best described as having a Mediterranean climate with warm, dry summers and mild and wet winters. Ideally, we would recommend visiting in the Spring, Summer or Autumn when the weather is at it’s best within the area. Winter weather is cooler, wetter and often much windier; there are however still a huge number of activities possible and accommodation prices are more competitive.

AUTUMN

This can be a fantastic time of year to visit as the summer's heat subsides, the wind settles and autumn casts its brightly coloured mantle over the vineyards, generating red, burnished vistas spreading from the mountain tops to the sea. Midday temperatures of around 24°C/75°F, mornings can be a little chilly at times, so do pack a warm jumper.

WINTER

The arrival of Winter signifies cooler weather, increased rainfall with weather front often rolling in off the Atlantic Ocean, accompanied by strong winds. In between the weather fronts, the weather can be surprisingly pleasant, these days are just less frequent. This is a spectacular time to see the Western Cape in all of its glory, but just be prepared for any weather!
