We had an exquisite afternoon tea at the Mount Nelson hotel. We were expertly looked after by Wiseman, in the most beautiful setting. We would highly recommend this experience.

My sister and I have been dreaming to visit the Mount Nelson for high tea since we were teenagers and 12 years later, for our birthday, we are here and it’s a 1000 times better than expected. I had imagined how it would go but this was spectacular. Our stunning waitress Zodwa is a gem, she treated us with so much care, she spoke to us with kindness (like we’re old friend) and her suggestions were spot on! Not only is she stunning to look at but she’s absolutely spectacular at her job. It made the experience so much. I give the food, service, experience, the tea a 100 out of 10. Everything was spectacular, truly! Beat birthday ever! Thank you so much.
