Honeymoon to Kensington Place
The best hotel I have ever stayed in (probably) everything was so bespoke and personal. Breakfast is all day, everything is included - no extras, and they go the extra mile every step of the way in service and room quality. A stunning hotel couldn’t recommend enough.
This is a nice boutique hotel within a 10-15 minute walk to an array of restaurants. Also well situated for visiting table mountain. The room was very comfortable.
Wonderfull small boutique hotel on the shadow of Cape mountain with excellent service and could not do enough for us. Like a home away from home. The breakfast was also nice.
