We very much enjoyed our stay at Kensington place while in Capetown. This boutique hotel is very well located and accessible to the city's main attractions. The service we received was outstanding and we very much appreciate the time Austin, the manager, took into ensure we had a great time in Capetown. We appreciate the restaurant and activity recommendations. The... More

I can only echo the sentiments expressed by others here. Why KP is not number one in Cape Town is beyond me - how could there be better service or location? I disagree that the location is a negative, I think it's a huge positive. Mere minutes to Table Mountain and Signal Hill or Camps Bay without having to deal... More

Stayed here recently on our Honeymoon and the experience was fantastic.... It all started when we arrived and Austen, the hotel manager, sat down with us over some champagne. They had taken the fantastic step of booking us into restaurants on each of the four nights we were in Cape Town - and by an large they weren't places we... More

What a wonderful oasis in Cape Town. The rooms are beautiful and comfortable and they seem to think of everything.... Even booking our dinner reservations at fabulous restaurants for us in advance. The breakfasts are also very yummy. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. In fact, I don't want to leave! Simply perfection.

Kensington Place is a small boutique hotel nestled at the foot of Table Mountain behind a tall privacy wall. The driveway fits 2-3 cars at best. Inside the security gate there were tended gardens and a small plunge pool. As I entered the hotel there was a cozy bar to the right, and the lounge with fireplace to the left,... More

I was originally planning on staying for one day but extended it to three. Don't even bother with the cheesy downtown hotels. This place is just excellent. Service like you haven't seen before. Location is pretty good too but you need to use cabs. Not walkable especially at night and uphill.

After reading such positive, warm reviews on this site, my skeptical London eyes were sure that this place could never live up to the hype. It does. In buckets. Big ones. Best thing - the staff, who have obviously travelled widely themselves and understand what a modern day luxury experience is. You're not a guest, you're a friend that's yet... More

A return visit to Cape Town offered the opportunity to experience Kensington Place once again. And it's still the most perfect place to stay in South Africa. It's the ideal location for the city's fantastic restaurants, shopping and beaches - and the staff anticipate every possible need. Austen and his team are wonderful hosts, so it's not surprising that KP... More
