"The word “heritage” need not evoke a stuffy yesteryears vibe. At this intimate boutique hotel in the Central Business District’s Heritage Square, owners Johan and Victoria Nel have lovingly restored a 1780s building into a stylish inner-city retreat. Old meets new as rooms with soaring ceilings and exposed brick are bedecked in local art, and themes range from colonial period to Asian-inspired, complete with silk curtains and bamboo touches. Breakfast is served in a lovely vine-laden courtyard where you can find a moment of tranquility that might let you forget you’re in the heart of the city. But why should you want to forget? If you’re the type of traveler who prefers to forgo wheels in favor of walking around, you can’t find a better location. Bree Street teems with new restaurants and a clutch of shops displaying works by burgeoning South African artists and designers, and the hotel is walking distance to all the historic sights of the CBD as well as the colorful houses of the Bo-Kaap neighborhood."

This hotel is a feast for the eyes with many art works and fixtures. Our room had a four poster bed and the decor was like a colonial stately home. Beautiful. |The staff were on the whole warm and friendly and super attentive.|Breakfast could be eaten in a quaint courtyard boasting an ancient vine dating back to the 1800’s. One of the tastiest breakfasts I’ve eaten and so well presented. ||When we arrived it was the first Thursday celebrations. This hotel was part of the art trail with an exhibition on in the front two main rooms. The celebrations are akin to those of new year and continue late into the night. |Be warned that hotel is in the heart of the city and the noise at night for us was very unsettling ( you are given complimentary ear plugs). Granted we stayed over a weekend and by Sunday things had settled. On the plus side there are great bars, cafes and restaurants at your doorstep

The staff and service was excellent! Be sure to have breakfast - the food and service is impeccable. Our room was very comfortable; the bathroom was upgraded. The V&A Waterfront is walkable (20-25 minutes) during the day. The area around the hotel is quite safe, but being in the CBD there are homeless people begging. The hotel arranged hotel transfers to and from the airport at a reasonable price. Our room was on the street side, so it was a bit loud at night - nothing a white noise machine can't drown out. Easy access to bars & restaurants in the square.

Three nights here after cruising from Mauritius. Really impressive boutique hotel. Friendly service. Huge bathroom in room 104. Plenty of bars and restaurants nearby. Rooftop Jacuzzi. Highly recommended.

Me and my daughter stayed at Cape Heritage Hotel for 1 night. It ticked all the boxes and even more! From arrival, all of the staff were extremely friendly, welcoming and helpful. A huge thank you to each one of them. The building with historic photo's which takes you back in history is well maintained and the air-conditioned room was super clean and beautiful, beds and pillows extremely comfortable. Breakfast the next morning was one of our highlights, sitting underneath the oldest fruit bearing grape vine in the Southern hemisphere, enjoying a huge breakfast and delicious cuppacino, once again served by the hotel's friendly staff. Safe parking and great location within easy walking distance to V&A Waterfront and Bo-Kaap. Can recommend and will definitely be back!!

The breakfasts provided were awesome and I can’t say enough good things about the hotel and the people. So accommodating!!!!

The location was terrific, our rooms so comfortable, and the service very accommodating. We had four rooms total each unique and beautiful. The staff was gracious. We also enjoyed a delicious breakfast each day. ||The many excellent restaurants within walking distance was another benefit.

Great location! Can walk everywhere, restaurants and shops all around us. Good size room. Hotel is nicely renovated. Only thing I didn't like was the old TV in the room and the remote was not working, but problems solved quickly. Would book again!
