Had a wonderful experience here. This hotel has incredibly thoughtful, anticipatory service, a real sense of history, and fantastic accommodations. It's iconic in its own right, but everything is fresh and well-maintained. Could not recommend this enough for luxury stay in Cape Town.

We went for a Afternoon High Tea for our 2nd year anniversary. Thuli was helping us through the service, she was very kind and made sure that we were taken care of, comfortable and happy! Craig their Tea Master recommended us a Tea just by getting to know us and it was fantastic. The food was superb very fun and definitely enough to make you say maagies vol oogies toe! We were very happy that we chose the Mount Nelson, it really doesn't get better than that!
