Style

A small and luxurious boutique city hotel.

Setting

In the leafy suburb of Higgovale, Cape Town, Kensington Place rests on the slopes of Table Mountain, close to all of the vibrant city’s hot spots – yet with a surprisingly peaceful and secluded atmosphere.

Accommodation & Facilities

8 contemporary and tastefully decorated rooms are all spacious and clean with twin or king sized beds. All rooms are air conditioned and have a lap top, skype phone, electric safe and a nice terrace.

The Hotel has a great restaurant, comfortable lounge with plush sofas and a 24 hour bar which is fantastic for cocktails. The hotel has a very vibrant city feel, but feels away from the noise of the ‘real’ city.

Other facilities include a nice peaceful garden, plunge pool, library, off site parking and exercise facilities (such as tennis, aerobics and squash).

Dining

Breakfast is served all day, great for late risers spending the night out on the town! The food is tasty and healthy, using fresh, local ingredients. Room service at Kensington Place is 24 hours and has a similar menu as the restaurant at lunch. There are plenty of great restaurants, cafes and bars in the city to explore.

Activities

From Kensington Place there is a massively wide range of activities available and some fantastic places to visit. Take a trip down Long Street and check out the local architecture, visit the Green Market for some African Memorabilia, or Church Street Antique Market. Visit Table Mountain, go diving at Cape Point, climb Lions Head and Signal Hill or explore Kirstenbosch Botanic Gardens.

There is also wine tasting, an aquarium, trips to Robben Island (where Nelson Mandela was once held in the maximum security prison), Helicopter Trips, stunning beaches, horse riding, seasonal whale watching and some great shopping!

Child Policy

No children under 12 are allowed to stay at Kensington Place.
