Reviews for Belmond Mount Nelson
Thuli was amazing
Amazing afternoon tea. Thuli was fantastic and gave us the most wonderful tea experience. We have been to this high tea 7 times. And never ever have a bad time, ever! We keep coming back again and again because of people like Thuli

Beautiful Afternoon Tea with Wonderful Service from Nomkitha
We had the most beautiful afternoon tea at the Mount Nelson Hotel from 16h00 to 18h00, and it was such a special experience. The setting was elegant, calm and timeless, exactly what you would expect from the Pink Lady. The menu was beautifully presented, with a lovely selection of savoury bites, finger sandwiches, scones and sweet treats. I had the mango tea, which was a fruity infusion of hibiscus, apple, mango and lemongrass. It was light, refreshing and paired so nicely with the afternoon tea. A special thank you to our waiter, Nomkitha, who made the experience even more memorable. She was warm, attentive and professional, and looked after us with such care. Nothing felt rushed, and she made the afternoon feel relaxed and special. It was a beautiful Cape Town experience and definitely something I would recommend to anyone wanting a classic, elegant afternoon tea. Thank you, Nomkitha, for your lovely service and for making our afternoon tea feel extra special.
