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 stayed here as a family of four with two teenagers. My son became sick within the first 24 hours and Wellington Zembe the Guest Experience Manager directed his team to bring flowers, broth and oral hydration drinks to our room. They made a spare bed for our daughter in the common room and made us feel very taken care of. Three of us had dinner at the Verandah and had a great meal taken care of by Emmanuel and Chevril(possibly spelling that wrong). The dinner was grande, with the food and service battling together for which was better. We definitely recommend the chocolate mousse-it is crafted table side and was awesome!

The Mount Nelson is pure perfection. Nothing can be faulted! My cat and I were privileged to get an upgrade and experienced the Deluxe suite. Everything was perfect! The room and bathroom aid spacious, luxurious with every little detail making our stay perfect. It would be wrong to mention only a few staff members as EVERY person we interacted with was friendly, courteous and helpful. The gardens and pool are exceptionally well maintained and the breakfast and high tea we enjoyed were next level! I wish we could have experienced some of the amazing activities on offer, but our stay wasn’t long enough. Definitely the best accommodation I have experienced in 27 countries. Thank you to everyone and long live the Pink lady!
