An icon in its Cape Town surroundings, the warm blush hue and palm-laden landscape makes Belmond Mount Nelson a true delight for savvy travelers. This landmark South Africa luxury hotel near the city's vibrant waterfront has enjoyed a 200-year history full of brilliant and fantastic times. With a half-dozen wings jutting in various directions, Belmond Mount Nelson has created its own cocoon in which to spoil its guests. Vintage architecture, private gardens, individual appointments and state-of-the-art technology all join forces to create an unforgettable stay. Rooms and suites are creatively configured to offer maximum space and enchanting views. With so many distractions - including a pair of heated swimming pools lined with lounge chairs, tennis courts, a fitness center and a dedicated area to practice golf - there is no need to stray far from his urban sanctuary.

We had a wonderful visit to the Planet Bar, but specifically because Devine was our bartender. He has a natural talent as a host and a mixologist.

Our stay at the Mount Nelson was magical! From the splendid breakfasts, the great choices for dinners, to the thoughtful goodie bags for our excursions, everything was exquisite with every detail considered. I would come back in a heartbeat!

I had the most wonderful birthday celebration enjoying Afternoon Tea. Everything was beautifully presented, and the experience felt truly special from start to finish. A big thank you to Leisha, who went above and beyond to make my day memorable with her attentive and thoughtful service. Highly recommend for a special occasion!
