Belmond Mount Nelson

We had the most amazing experience of afternoon tea at Mount Nelson. Zona provided fantastic service, the live piano player was spectacular and the venue is a sight to behold. We will absolutely be back!

We had a lovely high tea experience! Thabisa was an exceptional waitress - so kind and helpful! Craig, the tea sommelier, took us on an amazing tea tasting adventure. Highly recommended, beautiful space and lasting memories with special family. A must do when in Cape Town!

We had the most incredible birthday experience at the Nellie today. Thabisa was exceptional, she deserves a promotion - I don’t think we have ever had such a knowledgable, friendly waitress. The food was delicious, the desserts stole the show. Thank you for this treat!

We chose the Mount Nelson Hotel to celebrate my wife's milestone birthday and stayed four nights there. It's luxurious and steeped in tradition, with excellent service, yet still relaxed and warm. Breakfasts were varied and highly enjoyable. We also tried the restaurants — The Verandah, The Red Room, and Amura among them — and each delivered excellent cuisine, ambience, and service. The hotel team made a huge effort to make my wife's birthday fun and memorable. A bottle of Cape Town sparkling wine and a chocolate cake were greatly appreciated. But what really stood out was our departure: a hotel manager, having noticed my wife's interest in the hotel's floral decorations during our stay, gifted her a beautiful protea bouquet. A thoughtful touch that we won't forget. Highly recommended.

It was a great experience and we had excellent and friendly service from Thabisa!
