Kensington Place

Located in the leafy Cape Town suburb of Higgovale, surrounded by Table Mountain and overlooking the city, this luxury boutique hotel houses just eight spacious suites. Sink into the total comfort of meticulously designed suites defined by a blend of luscious textures and contemporary detail. A dedicated concierge team will ensure that your visit to Cape Town is a unique one. Breakfast is served throughout the day and a seasonal menu is always on hand should you wish to dine by the pool or on your own private terrace.

The city, its harbor and the surrounding mountains are all visible from each private terrace. Lush quiet gardens and an intimate pool surround the property. An urban retreat strewn with beautiful ponds and fantastic art work yet minutes from the city.

Eight bespoke en-suite guest rooms with extra length king size beds (superior rooms) and private outdoor terraces. A team of friendly staffers who are almost telepathic, its not such a stretch to feel you are staying in a private home. Yet this is a private home styled by someone with immaculate taste, the finest linens used on the beds, the thickest towels used in the bathrooms and flat-screen TVs, iPod docking stations and personal laptops with complementary Wi-fi access are just a few of the modern accessories.

Kensington Place is well known for it’s cuisine, and it’s approach is simple – only the best, locally sourced ingredients will do. Breakfast breads and pastries are made daily to go along with the fantastic benedicts, smoked salmon cakes and egg dishes. The lunch and dinner menus rotate with the season and artisan cocktails and hand picked wines are available at the posh in house bar room.
