Located in the historical Constantia Valley, the former residence of the chief surgeon of the Dutch East India Company has been uplifted from a country house to a beautiful hotel all set in 9,5 acres of pristine country surrounds. This symphonic old dame is the perfect place to celebrate an intimate occasion surrounded by leafy oaks. Explore the enchanting fairy garden and if you are lucky, socks and fluffy, the resident cats, might stroll past. Dine on contemporary South African inspired cuisine in the flagship light and airy Greenhouse Restaurant or try the delicious home grown ingredients at the Conservancy Restaurant.
From $180 person/night
Constantia, Cape Town, South Africa
The food and wine pairings at The Greenhouse are of an exceptional quality—one of South Africa's top ten restaurants.
Traditional high tea overlooking the lawns is the perfect way to spend an afternoon.
Walk through 300 year old Camphor trees, some of the oldest in Cape Town and, if in season, don't miss the rose gardens.
Old fashioned, but classy is the impression you get as you arrive at the Cellars-Hohenart, the distinct Cape Dutch architecture carefully maintained amidst a botanical gardeners dream setting. Three different lounge and bar areas scattered around the main house create the perfect hideaway corners, a sitting room tucked away near a warming fireplace. Floor to ceiling glass windows in the Greenhouse maximise the heavenly views over the cape indigenous flora that change through the seasons.
Classically beautiful and warmly decorated with individual looks, the 52 rooms at the Cellars-Hohenart ooze charm and comfort. The suites are very spacious and light with elegant touches of floral patterns and designer prints. Rooms in the Hohenhort wing have the best views and character, the luxury suites come with a private verandah or private garden, the second floor has views over the landscape and Cape Peninsula.
After you have spent the day exploring all that Cape Town has to offer, retire to the serene and relaxing atmosphere and natural beauty of Cellars-Hohenart, surrounded by award winning gardens, don't be shy to have a chat with the gardener.
Being a 15 minute drive from the Cape Town city centre, you have the pleasure of being out in the quiet suburbs of Constantia and right on the doorstep of all the activities that the mother city has to offer. There's a heated pool, a Gary Player designed putting green, tennis court and on-site spa mean that you won't be completely devoid of any activity while on the grounds. A stroll through the gardens is a must.
