Cape Town Featured Hotels

Cape Town sits between Table Mountain and the Atlantic Ocean on the southwestern tip of South Africa. Its setting is one of the most dramatic of any major city - the flat-topped mountain rises 1,086 m straight above the centre, with Lions Head and Signal Hill flanking it and a coastline of beaches and bays sweeping south to the Cape of Good Hope.

The city itself is the most cosmopolitan in the country, with the historic Bo-Kaap, the V&A Waterfront, design-led neighbourhoods like Woodstock and De Waterkant, and a strong restaurant and wine scene. The Stellenbosch and Franschhoek wine valleys, the penguins at Boulders Beach, and Cape Point National Park all sit within an hour or two by car.
