Kensington Place

CAPE TOWN AT YOUR FEET

Kensington Place is the authentic boutique hotel that doesn't mince its words. Intimate with only 8 rooms, trendy with a different decor in each room playing with colours and textures, arty with the staging of hand-picked works of art, it is a haven of elegance for discovering the city of Cape Town. Located on the slopes of the world-famous Table Mountain, in the peaceful and leafy neighbourhood of Higgovale, Kensington Place is close to Cape Town's main points of interest while remaining away from the crowds. The hotel offers 8 rooms which are magnificent feats of interior design, with a particular focus on colours and materials, always used with restraint and elegance. Kensington Place is the ideal hotel to enjoy the pleasures of Cape Town, with the proximity of Table Mountain, Kloof Street (restaurants) and Long Street (antique dealers), and easy access to the Cape Point nature reserve, the Kirstenbosch botanical gardens and the vineyards of Constantia.

THE EXPERIENCES

Kensington Place is an ideal haven for exploring the vibrant city of Cape Town, far from the hustle and bustle of the Waterfront. Whatever your desires—nature, culture, gastronomy—you can easily hire a car or call upon the concierge to organise tailor-made excursions.

THE EXTRAORDINARY

Kensington Place is wonderfully situated in the heart of Cape Town and offers breathtaking views of Table Mountain, the Atlantic and its bays. It is a dream stopover for enjoying the city and its surroundings without suffering the drawbacks of crowds and noise. It is also, and above all, an intimate place, decorated with great taste.

ETHICS

The complete renovation of Kensington Place has allowed the use of finer, more natural decorative materials, creating a most original ethnic atmosphere in each bedroom with a modern decor highlighting more conceptual works of art by South African artists.
