21 Nettleton Overview

Any Capetonian you will ask will have heard of Nettleton Road – probably the most exclusive street in Cape Town with stunning views of the Atlantic, right on the slopes of Lion’s Head. This secluded street at the very top is usually home to private villas. But fortunately, one of the mansions has been converted into a luxury boutique hotel and travellers can enjoy the Mother City like a local. 

Guests staying here seek privacy, unmatched vistas, space and personalized service. After an adventurous day hiking up Table Mountain, relaxing on the beach or exploring the popular V&A Waterfront, all you want to do is sit back on the terrace and watch the famous African sunset. The six spacious rooms are all individually decorated with a mélange of classic antiques and modern design elements.
