Kensington Place

We had the most wonderful stay at Kensington Place! From the moment we arrived, everything felt beautifully thought out and welcoming. The botanical Fijn amenities were a real treat, and the heated carpet beside the bed was such a thoughtful touch – it made the room feel extra cosy. The whole building smelt beautiful and the interiors were stylishly designed with a warmth that felt like a true home-from-home. We loved the little turndown touches each evening, which made the stay feel extra special for our honeymoon. The staff were also incredibly helpful with our table reservations and made sure we felt relaxed and safe throughout our time there.

My husband and I traveled to South Africa for my birthday, and can’t say enough about the Kensington Place. We loved it here. We stayed in room 8, which had a wonderful view of Table Mountain. The rooms were well designed, so lovely, and literally spotless. The beds were comfortable, and they provide hot water bottles in the bed during turn down service for chillier evenings. The bathroom felt like an outdoor oasis. The grounds overall are so beautiful, and the entire place has an art deco feel. This is boutique hotel at its finest. Lastly the food was awesome and included gluten free options, such as bread! The service is top notch, and we appreciated the security staff that greeted us every time we left or returned back to the hotel. Kensington is in a great location near Kloof street and in a safe area. We will gladly come back anytime we are in Cape town.

My husband and I stayed at Kensington Place for 5 nights. It was absolutely wonderful! The location is beautiful, super close to Table Mountain as well as excellent restaurants on Kloof Street. |Every person working there was extremely helpful, attentive and went above and beyond to make sure our stay was the best it could be—from making dinner reservations for us, providing tasty afternoon snacks with tea and little extras the whole entire time. |Kensington Place is luxurious and comfortable all at the same time. We felt welcomed and truly hope to return here again!|Thank you!!

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the four nights we stayed at Kensington Place. It is exactly what we were looking for: small, well appointed boutique hotel with spectacular service in a quiet location.||||The facilities were in great shape and everything was always very clean. The only thing I could recommend improving, and it just might be personal taste is that the mattress was more firm than I prefer.||||The food was nothing but great. We enjoyed complimentary breakfast each morning with no complaints whatsoever. The menu was the same each morning, but great variety.||We also had one dinner there, which again was fantastic. I had the mushroom ravioli, and it might have been the best ravioli dish I’ve ever had.||||The service is where I feel this hotel really separates themselves and shines. Every single person we came in touch with exceeded our expectations. From security, to front desk to food service. They bent over backwards to make sure you were well taken care of.||||This hotel checked all of the boxes. Don’t hesitate in booking.

A gorgeous, tranquil retreat in a quiet corner of Cape Town. The property was a dream, and made our honeymoon in Cape Town so special. There's so much to rave about - the rooms were adorable, clean and comfortable; the breakfast food was delicious, and the staff was incredible and friendly. Plus there were beautiful views of Table Mountain. The property isn't in the heart of Cape Town but EASILY accessible and quick to the top attractions. Plus, walkable to a few great restaurants on Kloof Street - the staff was great at recommending options. Highly recommend staying here!

From the moment we arrived, we loved the location, atmosphere and vibes. Kensington Place's receptionist greeted us with a drink and cold towels. She even went through our trip itinerary to give us tips and ideas for our stay - we received a complimentary wine bottle in our room when we arrived. Every night there was a lovely sweet treat waiting for us, with the temperature of the next day! The breakfast was nothing short of amazing - the golden turmeric latte and pancakes were my face. Such a beautiful hotel, Thank you Kensington Place for a wonderful stay!

I wish I could live at Kensington place! The location was fabulous, being set back from the hustle and bustle of the city in the garden district with lovely views. The staff were top notch (Mathias, Hope, Gillian, Bright, Nikki to name a few) in their friendly nature and being helpful in terms of navigating the city and any of my needs at the time. I absolutely loved my spacious and very comfortable room, it's view and the complimentary bottle of wine I received upon my arrival. The food there is also quite amazing! I love the quaint nature of this boutique hotel and would recommend it to anyone. I hope to return one day!

Our first Corrientes was perfect. Arriving after a long flight we immediately felt relaxed and at home. We ate our evening meal in the hotel. Congratulations for choice and quality. My burger was memorable. Cooked exactly as I asked. Our room was very well appointed with a lovely view of the mountain. The lounge is a fabulous place to return to. It was fairly cool whilst we were there so each evening the log fire was lit. So comfortable and homely |It’s a total winner for us.
