A nine-storey cathedral of pillowed glass floating above the V&A Waterfront, 28 art-filled rooms and suites perched atop Zeitz MOCAA with Table Mountain and harbour framed like living paintings, it’s city glamour with a collector’s soul, rooftop swims at sunset, cocktails in the Willaston and lazy breakfasts in the Granary before you wander the galleries below.

Our Favorite Rooms

Mountain-facing Duplex Suites frame sunrise over Table Mountain, Royal Suites are triple-aspect with sweeping Atlantic, Robben Island and city views, the Penthouse adds a cinema room and twin terraces for the “pinch-me” moment; view lovers often request higher floors for the widest panorama.

Dining

The Granary Café serves contemporary, local-leaning plates under those dramatic windows with Executive Chef Veronica Canha-Hibbert at the pass; the Willaston Bar runs an all-day menu and a new thali-style small-plates dinner (think buttermilk chicken pakoras, Kerala fish curry, prawn breyani), and the Rooftop offers light bites with panorama to match. Afternoon “Royal Tea” is a pastry-chef showcase on the sixth floor.

Packing Tips

Cape Town is known for four seasons in one day. A smart layer for breezy rooftop evenings, comfortable city shoes for gallery hopping and the Waterfront, swimwear for the heated rooftop pool, a lightweight daypack for mountain or peninsula outings, and a universal adaptor for café-table laptop sessions.

Insider Tips

Book a private after-hours wander through Zeitz MOCAA with the concierge, time sundowners on the Rooftop as the city lights up, and ask the bar to shake a Dawa or tailor something off the seasonal cocktail list before a late table at the Granary.
