Reviews for Belmond Mount Nelson
Afternoon Tea
Excellent afternoon tea at the Mount Nelson. Nomkitha provided such great service - friendly and chatty and always helpful. Food was great - far more food than we expected with a savoury 3 tier stand to start, scones and loaf cake followed and then the cake stand with 6 cakes each. Then there is a buffet cake table where you can also help yourself. Beautiful setting and overall a great experience.
