Mount Nelson, A Belmond Hotel

Mount Nelson, A Belmond Hotel

The pink Edwardian grande dame has stood at the top of Government Avenue since 1899, with nine acres of gardens between the city and Table Mountain.

Stay in the main house or one of the historic garden cottages; the afternoon tea service and the restaurants and bars are open to outside bookings.

Local tip: Approach on foot up the palm-lined Government Avenue from Company's Garden rather than driving in off Orange Street.
