Cape Town

Cape Cadogan

Overview

Boutique choice for foodies

This Georgian-Victorian townhouse is a charming base for exploring Cape Town and its excellent foodie scene of the Kloof Area just outside your door. Its central location also means that other popular spots like Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens, Table Mountain and the V&A Waterfront are all within easy reach.

Cape Cadogan has undergone an extensive refurbishment in 2022. She is elegantly styled in beautiful emerald green, classic black and white, and touches of gold. This sophisticated style brings her firmly into the 21st century, without losing any of her charm.

There are just 19 rooms, each individually styled around the building's historic uniqueness, giving you a more personal experience than if you opted for one of the larger properties. When the weather is good, relax in the quaint courtyard, take a dip in one of the two heated pools or find a spot on the outdoor terrace. There’s a beautifully-appointed lounge with an open fireplace to ensure the wintery nights are cosy.
