As one of South Africa’s most perfect holiday destinations, Cape Town has much more to offer than beautiful scenery, Table Mountain and breathtaking beaches.
With wonderful museums, including Robben Island where Nelson Mandela was incarcerated for most of his 27 years in prison, the best restaurants in the country and world-class shopping on offer, it is important to carefully plan your trip to make the most of it.
Once you have established your budget, it is important to decide on accommodation. Picking the right location will play an important role in making your holiday more enjoyable. When it comes to hotel accommodation, Cape Town offers something for every taste and budget.
It will be worthwhile to consider your itinerary before booking hotel accommodation Cape Town.
Firstly, decide what you want to see and do. If you want to experience the city’s nightlife, restaurants, shopping, and museums, it is best to consider the city centre when booking your hotel. You will be close to many of Cape Town’s top tourist attractions, including Table Mountain, Robben Island and the V&A Waterfront, which boasts some of the best restaurants, shops and entertainment options in town.
For a more relaxed, laid-back time on the beach, consider staying around Muizenberg, Simon’s Town or Kalk Bay. The city centre will only be half an hour away, while you can enjoy the scenic beaches and Table Mountain. These towns are also famous for their quaint shops and great restaurants.
For more perfect beaches and luxury hotel accommodation, Cape Town suburbs Camp’s Bay and Clifton should be considered. Located a stone’s throw from the city centre, the beaches along the Atlantic Seaboard is some of the most scenic (and popular) in the country, and one of the best places in the world to watch the sun set.
