Your OOO can look like this too ✨

A treatment, a robe and absolutely nowhere else you need to be. The rest of Cape Town can carry on without you for an hour (or two).

The piping bags are out and this time you’re the one holding them 🍥🫖✨

This Friday, we’re getting together with BBCAKES CPT | On-trend Retro and Lunchbox Cakes for a Beau-Tea with Afternoon Tea in the Library, followed by a little cake decorating.

Pick your icing, get piping and decorate your cake exactly how you like it. Then, when you’re done, the best part: you get to take your cake home to share (or not).

Join us for an afternoon filled with tea, cake and a little creative freedom.

This World Tourism Day, we’re delighted to share that Cape Grace has retained its Two MICHELIN Keys for 2026.

The ’s MICHELIN Keys, the hotel equivalent of the MICHELIN Star for restaurants, recognise hotels that offer an exceptional stay, considering everything from architecture and character to service, setting and the experience as a whole.

For us, it is a recognition of something right at our core: the details that make a stay memorable, and the people who bring them to life.

We feel especially fortunate to welcome travellers to Cape Town, and to play a small part in how they come to know and remember this extraordinary city.

To our guests, near and far, thank you for continuing to make Cape Grace part of your journeys. And to our team, this one is yours, as always. 🤍

Once upon a time, there was a hotel that had an idea: let the smallest guests design the room.

So they did. 🦁

Our Kids' Safari Room was shaped, tested and approved by little explorers. Bunk beds. A secret door to Mom and Dad. A third room for grandparents, if the whole tribe is coming. 🗝️

Gingerbread decorating. Africa-themed story time. Kids' Afternoon Tea at Heirloom. ☕

Sometimes, happily ever after begins with finding a place that feels made for the whole family. 🤍

The marina gets the first look, but there’s plenty waiting behind the front door 🛎️

Breakfast at Heirloom, a few unhurried hours by the pool, a toast in the Library Lounge, and a quiet moment to yourself before the day comes to an end.

Sometimes, the best days are the ones that don’t take you very far.

Menu testing, and the saxophones (and smoke alarms) kept getting louder. 🔥

All for a worthy cause, though!

On 25 and 26 September, Chef Shaun Scrooby of VUUR joins our Executive Chef Wesli Jacobs at Heirloom for a four-hands collaboration over Heritage Weekend.

Two complementary approaches to South African cooking, bringing together the flavours, memories and stories that make our food what it is.

You’ll never see the thirty small decisions that go into one perfect room — and that’s the point.

This Housekeeping Week, we’re pulling back the curtain on the hands that make every stay feel effortless.

Cape Grace would not feel like home without them.

Queen Victoria’s wedding cake weighed around 136 kg. It stood three tiers high and stretched almost 3 metres across. White icing, sugar figures of Britannia and the royal couple, orange blossom and myrtle. It’s basically why we all picture a grand white wedding cake when we think of one at all.

What we’re borrowing from her isn’t the excess. It’s the patience and the commitment to beauty. The idea that decorating a cake is worth slowing down for, a little icing, a steady hand, an afternoon with nothing else on the calendar.

That’s the mood for our next Beau-Tea, on Friday, 2 October, hosted with BBCAKES CPT | On-trend Retro and Lunchbox Cakes, the Cape Town studio known for its playful take on retro and lunchbox cakes.

The afternoon starts with a welcome drink in the Library. Then afternoon tea. Then, with the BB Cakes team on hand to help and inspire, you get your hands into the icing and decorate a cake of your own. Your own flourishes, your own piping, your own personality, boxed up to take home at the end.

Part afternoon tea, part creative workshop, and really just a good excuse to spend a few hours making something beautiful in good company.
