The best "classic" rooms marry modern design with old-fashioned charm (a few antiques, floral artworks) -- ask for no. 306.

"A renowned, privately owned four-star hotel on Sea Point’s coastal boulevard. Tailor-made tours to the Winelands or to Cape Point can be arranged through consultation with the management."
