Mt Nelson Hotel


One of Cape Town’s most famous hotels, the Mount Nelson is an urban sanctuary set in beautiful gardens on the lower slopes of Table Mountain. The hotel offers an oasis of stylish sophistication, privacy and tranquility within close proximity to the V&A Waterfront and Cape Town’s best beaches.

Nestling at the foot of Table Mountain and set in nine acres of lush gardens, the Mount Nelson Hotel is one of Cape Town’s most elegant hotels offering unparalleled tradition, history and luxury. Over a hundred years old, the hotel was the fruit of the imagination and determination of shipping magnate Sir Donald Currie and was designed to emulate the finest hotels in London City.

The reviews which followed the grand opening of the Mount Nelson claimed that the hotel surpassed all expectations and exceeded the comparison with its British rivals:“The Mount Nelson, reclining elegantly at the foot of Table Mountain, is Cape Town’s grande dame. Far from being stuffy and traditional, it’s a soothing oasis in nine acres of lush, well tended gardens…”
