Winchester Mansions, situated along the Sea Point Promenade and facing the Atlantic Ocean, has earned its reputation as Cape Town's iconic and leading sea front hotel among local and international guests.
(413)
Situated on Cape Town's Platinum mile and overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, Winchester Mansions is an exclusive, privately-owned 4-star hotel in Cape Town. It sets itself apart from other hotels in and around Cape Town with its spectacular beachfront location, stylish elegance and personalised service. Close to the V&A Waterfront and the Cape's beaches as well as Cape Town's sights. The original Cape Dutch architecture combined with personalised hospitality and professional service forms the hotel's unique signature of classic elegance. Business and leisure travellers enjoy the Winchester Mansions' relaxing atmosphere, set against the backdrop of the mountain and overlooking the swell of the Atlantic. In a world-class destination such as Cape Town with so much to see and do, it is rather unlikely that you will be spending lots of time in your room. Nevertheless, we make sure that even if you do decide to stay in, you are able to unwind in style and comfort. Our rooms are spacious and elegant and all of them have either sea or mountain views - just to ensure that you never forget where you are. Children of all ages are welcome at the Winchester Mansions. A large variety of amenities and services are available to ensure a delightful stay for our little guests.

Looking for the perfect gift? Our signature events' vouchers are the perfect gift to add to a loved one's Christmas stocking.
Here is the time capsule message, written by Sherry Walklett, that will be part of our structure for generations to come:
“Dear future generation, you will be living in a different world, but you will still be on our planet. Take care of it, so far it is the only planet that can sustain human life. Be gentle and kind to others while doing the same to yourselves. As humans, you are not better or superior to animals so look after them, and if they are wild animals, please leave them in the wild. Don’t take life too seriously; you have absolutely no idea what comes next, we didn’t. Laugh as often as you can and as loudly as possible. Take your seat at the table…every single time. Live your best life; this is not a practice run. With love.”
