What a fabulous experience. From the moment we arrived at the entrance till we left all the staff were helpful friendly and knowledgeable, nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was incredible as was dinner. Afternoon tea is a wonderful experience and not to be missed.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Nellie and wish we could have stayed even longer! The property was immaculate and beautiful and the staff always personable - exceeding expectation. We felt pampered and special. Looking forward to our next visit! Special thanks to Adam Herbert, guest experience manager, for his attention and insights into Cape Town and South Africa at large.

Our Junior suite was a wonderful place to relax - so spacious, with views to 3 sides. The bathroom was very spacious. Room was always well serviced. There were generous supplies of tea and coffee. It was always a pleasure to approach the hotel - the porters welcoming, friendly and efficient. We found the concierges extremely helpful. The Guest Experience Team were proactive in ensuring we had everything and their kindness in making my wife's birthday special will long be remembered - thanks Sherman and Frances! Sherman appreciates that the Nellie is not just a 5* hotel - it is an iconic institution and he clearly intends to keep it as the premier destination in Cape Town

Our stay at the Mount Nelson was magical. From the moment we arrived, we were so happy with the impeccable service and the beauty of the grounds. Not to mention the incredible views with the property being nestled at the base of Table Mountain. It is an incredible escape from the hustle and bustle of the city and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone traveling to Cape Town.

A fantastic gem in Cape Town, in South Africa, and globally. Beautiful hotel, very well maintained, and top quality in absolutely everything it has, starting with the outstanding courteous, friendly and very professional staff, and going to the food, linen, accommodations, spa, activities, etc. One of the best places I have stayed throughout my 40 year travel journey.

The Mount Nelson is truly a special hotel. It's physical location affords you an incredible view of Table Mountain. Rooms were spacious and luxuriously appointed with huge bathrooms. The service was outstanding, particularly rom Muchi the concierge who was very helpful in assisting us with planning excursions and hard-to-snag dinner reservations. High tea was a real treat and was even better thanthose I have had in London. We loved the Planet Bar and daily breakfasts, which were impressive and massive! I would highly recommend you stay at the "pink lady."

Seth (bartender) was always so pleasant, knowledgeable & overall a wonderful individual. Drinks were fabulous!!I would also have to mention one of the guys out front “Courage”. Always a friendly smile and a word of how my day was, where I had been & did I enjoy it. In retrospect all employees were outstanding. Piano player is fabulous!!

Um sonho de hotel! Hotéis da rede Belmond costumam ser experiências exclusivas e acessíveis a poucas pessoas. No entanto, este de Capetown, ainda que não seja barato, pode ser uma opção para quem quer ter, ainda que por poucos dias ou breves momentos, uma experiência em hotéis da rede. Digo isso porque o valor das refeições é mais acessível que outros hotéis da rede. O mesmo para a diária. Não preciso nem mencionar a simpatia e eficiência dos funcionários, os mimos no quarto, a excelência do serviço, a comida maravilhosa, piscina e academia. Tudo perfeito! A única sugestão que tenho é cogitarem em fazer uma piscina interna. Por mais que seja aquecida é difícil desfrutar da piscina do hotel no inverno.

O Mount Nelson é simplesmente magnífico. Ficar hospedada aqui superou todas as expectativas e foi, sem dúvidas, a melhor experiência hoteleira que já tive na vida. O diferencial do hotel vai muito além da sua estrutura física excelente e imponente. O verdadeiro charme está nas pessoas: uma equipe extremamente atenciosa e genuinamente comprometida em transformar a estadia em um momento inesquecível. Quarto e Detalhes: O quarto é um verdadeiro refúgio de conforto e sofisticação. Um toque encantador são as amenities de uma das melhores e mais prestigiadas marcas da África, mostrando o cuidado em cada detalhe. Gastronomia: O café da manhã é espetacular e impecável, com variedade e altíssima qualidade. Atenção aos Detalhes: Um agradecimento especial pelo carinho e pela surpresa incrível que prepararam para o aniversário da minha filha. Esse gesto sensível e memorável ganhou nossos corações. Só tenho a agradecer por cada segundo dessa experiência. Quero, com toda a certeza, voltar em breve!
