Villa Belmonte

Boutique Hotel in Cape Town

Description

Built in 1903 in the Cape Dutch Colonial style, Villa Belmonte is an exquisite Five Star boutique hotel situated in Oranjezicht, a quiet, exclusive residential suburb framed against the backdrop of the world-famous Table Mountain, with magnificent vistas across the port city of Cape Town stretching towards Table Bay. Set in beautiful gardens dominated by a large, heated swimming pool with water features, the Villa is a tranquil oasis, yet is finely located for visits to all areas of the Cape Peninsula and wine lands and is in walking distance to the city centre and close to the waterfront.

Villa Belmonte is an elegant and imposing Boutique Hotel in quiet Oranjezicht, framed against the backdrop of Table Mountain, only minutes from the city centre. The wide verandah with its arched columns has sweeping views of the mountains with the city below stretching out towards the harbour and sea. Built in 1903, the recidence has the ambience of a Cape Colonial villa. Owners Cliff and Tabea Jacobs restored and converted their villa into an exclusive small hotel some years ago and have since gained an enviable reputation for the quality of their product, culminating in the Villa recently being awarded a 4-star grading, with a Silver classification, for service excellence. For the businessman, there is a small well-equipped conference room, and a large pool sparkles in the pretty garden.
