Mount Nelson Hotel - General Information


Winston Churchill once said that the Mount Nelson - or the 'Nellie' as some prefer to call it - was a 'most excellent and well appointed establishment that may be thoroughly appreciated after a sea voyage'. And right he was.

Set at the foot of Table Mountain and situated in the heart of Cape Town, you can stay within easy walking distance of a wide range of attractions. Without a doubt one of the most famous of Cape Town hotels, the Mount Nelson has produced good hospitality and fine living in the grand tradition for over a century. The hotel combines history, comfort and traditional service with grace and style and, as a result, has won numerous awards.

Occupying a breathtaking site on the lower slopes of Table Mountain and set in 9 acres of lush and tranquil gardens, the 201 luxurious rooms and suites offer garden or mountain views. Leisure facilities include 2 heated swimming pools, floodlit tennis courts, a bodycare centre, private gymnasium, golf practice net and high speed internet access throughout the hotel.
