Cape Town, South Africa

Kensington Place

This is one of our absolute favorites in Cape Town. The property is fabulous, hip and well run. We are into details like Molton Brown bath products and great sheets. Kensington does it all well. This property is not on the water, so travelers who really want sea views from their terraces should look elsewhere.  — Mango's view

Kensington Place is located on the slopes of Table Mountain. The city, its harbor and the surrounding mountains are all visible from each private terrace. Lush quiet gardens and an intimate pool surround the property. The interiors have an unmistakable contemporary feel with eclectic African touches throughout. You can be pampered to breakfast in bed, on your terrace or overlooking the gardens, at any time.

The hotel's 8 luxurious rooms boast marble baths, private terraces, exquisite fabrics and original artworks from mostly South African artists. Each room is equipped with satellite TV, safe, DVD player, air conditioner and fan.

There are many things to see during your visit to Africa's most cosmopolitan city. Tours of the Cape Peninsula, Robben Island, whale watching, helicopter charters and deep sea fishing are a few of the interesting options available.

We will give you a list of Mango's favorite restaurants including The Africa Café. There you can enjoy a communal-style African feast that includes over 19 dishes from nearby African countries.
