Cape Town is a beautiful city with plenty to offer, even in the winter months. The Taj Cape Town is the ultimate urban getaway: boasting an unrivalled location in the heart of the Mother City, this beautiful heritage building is a cocoon of opulent luxury. The Taj Cape Town has already established a well-earned reputation for warm hospitality and last year, refreshed its style, adding a more contemporary look and feel to its ground floor.
Beautiful decor, lighting, and custom-designed furniture ensure that this heritage hotel – always a favourite amongst local and international tourists as well as those seeking a vibrant rendezvous spot within close proximity to the city’s major landmarks – has even more to boast about.
The changes made include a refresh of the Lobby Lounge; an area which has always impressed guests thanks to its unabashed grandeur (a legacy of the South African Reserve Bank, where the Taj Cape Town has made its home). In this space, guests can enjoy morning coffee or high tea with a delectable choice of pastries and cakes from The Pantry.
Then there’s the new Lobby Bar, a custom-designed bar with a sophisticated ambience and iconic views, as well as the new sophisticated ambiance and iconic views, as well as the new Whiskey Bar, a homage to old-school elegance.
At the award-winning Bombay Brasserie, guests are treated to the tastes of India (with a little local flair) and a culinary experience in an exquisitely exotic setting, while Mint Restaurant’s new menu tempts with a range of small plates and wood-fired grills. The convenient location invites you to explore the city’s museums and galleries or take a cable car up Table Mountain - there’s a plethora of activities to fill your day. It all adds up to an experience that’s excitingly cosmopolitan, yet stays true to the Taj Cape Town’s proud heritage.
