THE CLAREMONT
The Claremont Boutique Hotel is a beautifully restored Cape Dutch manor in one of Cape Town’s leafy neighbourhoods. Part of the Sabi Sabi Collection, it has just 15 rooms across the manor house, garden cottages and grounds, offering the warmth of a private home with attentive, personalised hospitality.
Days here can be as restful or adventurous as guests wish. Spend a quiet afternoon beside the garden pool or in the manor’s Safari Library, then set out to explore nearby Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens, the Constantia Winelands and Table Mountain National Park. The hotel’s concierge can help shape each day around guests’ interests.
Food and drink offer another way to discover the Cape. Veld & Vine Bistro serves dishes inspired by local ingredients, Koffiehuis invites guests to pause for coffee or high tea, and the intimate 1928 Craft Bar showcases wines from the Constantia Valley alongside craft spirits and beers.

Tucked into a leafy Cape Town neighbourhood, The Claremont offers a peaceful base with the city’s highlights within easy reach. Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens is around five minutes away, while Table Mountain, the Constantia Winelands and Cape Town’s restaurants, galleries and coastline invite days of discovery. Return to the quiet of the garden and pool whenever you’re ready to slow down.
Veld & Vine Bistro celebrates the flavours of the Western Cape through a menu shaped by the seasons. Working closely with local growers, the kitchen lets fresh produce shine in dishes that bring together Cape ingredients, Mediterranean influences and a South African touch. Guests can linger over breakfast, a long lunch on the terrace or dinner by candlelight.
Koffiehuis is a welcoming place to pause for expertly made coffee, freshly baked cakes or a leisurely high tea overlooking the gardens. Its coffee beans are roasted locally, while the tea selection includes herbal infusions from the Cederberg. The high tea brings together handcrafted pastries, savoury bites and South African favourites.
The Claremont’s wine selection invites guests to explore the Cape one glass at a time. At Veld & Vine Bistro and the 1928 Craft Bar, wines from the Constantia Valley sit alongside rare vintages and discoveries from other South African regions, with a focus on the character of smaller producers. Guests can continue the experience with a tailored visit to nearby wine farms, including estates producing award-winning small-batch wines.
At the heart of The Claremont is a century-old Cape Dutch manor, carefully restored for contemporary stays. Original character, inviting lounges and garden spaces give the hotel the feel of a private residence. With just 15 rooms, there is space to settle in and make it your own.
The Claremont’s concierge can help guests explore Cape Town according to their interests, from guided walks at Kirstenbosch to vineyard visits and food pairings in Constantia. After a day out, the pool, sunroom and Safari Library offer inviting places to unwind.
