There isn't much I can say which hasn't already been said in reviews for Kensington Place - a truly exceptional hotel in spectacular surroundings. The rooms were immaculately presented, with contemporary design and lots of nice additions, like a flat screen TV, iPod dock, laptop and free wireless in the room, etc. Many small touches made the stay even more... more

You are making a huge mistake if you choose not to stay here! My wife and I briefly visited some of the other highly recomended hotels in Cape Town for a fun comparison and really, there is NO comparison to the elite Kensington Place. The service is truly sensational with an exceptionally friendly "service first" attitude while doing everything and... more

Kensington place is a gem in the foothills of Table mountain. The rooms were lovely and the service fantastic. Personal recommendations from staff of things to do were helpful, for example Sasha told us about the open air concerts at Kirstenbosch on a Sunday evening - we went along with a picnic and had a great evening out with the... more

If you're going to Cape Town, definitely put this... more

We recently travelled to Cape Town and spent a month in the mother city. We were delighted to have the privilege to stay at Kensington Place.

Myself & husband recently returned from our 1st trip to S Africa. We started our holiday at Kensington Place, what a fantastic choice we made. Even though we arrived hours before check-in time we were greeted by Sasha and offered a glass of Champagne, what a perfect start to the holiday. Our suite was Room 4 which was perfect in... more
