Reviews for Belmond Mount Nelson
Brilliant experience all-round at the Fountain
We went to The Fountain restaurant at the Mount Nelson with a couple of friends for a boozy lunch in the sunshine. It was fantastic! The service was impeccable, the food was delicious, the surroundings were lush and beautiful, and the energy was just so good. It couldn’t have been a better day - thank you to Chef Luke and the staff at the Mount Nelson for taking such good care of us.

The Fountain Restaurant- A Standout Casual Eatery at the Mount Nelson
We had a weekend lunch with friends at the Fountain Restaurant at the Mount Nelson and it was absolutely divine. The setting is something else entirely — all that pink and green, the gardens...all of it The food is beautifully plated and deceptively simple, with really rich, satisfying flavours and a wonderful variety of ingredients on offer. Everything was delicious and the servings were generous. The Fountain is well worth a lunch outing while in Cape Town!
