About the Hotel
In the heart of Cape Townâ€(TM)s Constantia Valley, the Relais & Chateaux-affiliated The Cellars Hohenort unifies two great traditions. The magnificent 18th-century Klaasenbosch wine cellars and the splendid manor house of the Hohenort have both been restored at this divine member of The Collection by Liz McGrath. Understated South African elegance sets the tone in romantic bedrooms, suites and the gracious, Cape-style Madiba Villa. The 9-acre estate also embraces gardens, a vineyard and the Cape Malay restaurant, showcasing the regionâ€(TM)s unique cuisine.

Reviews for The Cellars-Hohenort
Beautiful meal in The Conservatory
Quality, excellence, ingenious, creative, beautiful. Much enjoyed the meal here and ambience. Such a fine building and gardens with discretion and flair. Wonderful mix of vibrant contemporary interiors with classical Cape. Food was wonderfully presented. Recommended. Booking essential.

Extortionist hotel rates but extremely poor service
I had an unfortunate incident with a waiter at breakfast and I wanted to report the waiter to the general manger of the hotel. I called reception but was told the manager was not on duty that day and she will call me back when she returns. It’s a week now I haven’t heard from her. This despite the letter authored by the general manager that we found in the room inviting us to call her if we needed any assistance We were a group of 13 guests. We had requested set menus for dinner. During our 3 day stay the chef never changed the menu. We ate the same food in each of the 3 dinners Everyone in our group was underwhelmed by the hotel particularly because their rates were way above market rate
fgggkkk
Excellent Stay in Cape Town
Stunning property with spectacular views and gardens. Service was excellent from the moment we arrived. The pictures do not do this Hotel justice…absolutely gorgeous grounds. I took pictures every day I was there because the property was so beautiful. Our room was beautiful with very tasteful decor. Lovely outdoor patio and fountains. Restaurant experience was consistently 5 Star. Great service and delicious meals. Drinks and wine selection were great. 15-20 minute drive into the heart of the city but well worth it if you have a car. Places you in a beautiful and lush area. Would highly recommend during a stay in Cape Town.

Spectacular stay at The Cellars-Hohenort
I had a truly wonderful 5-night stay at The Cellars-Hohenort last month while visiting Cape Town as part of a 3-week trip to South Africa with my mother. This stay was the highlight of the trip for me. The staff (especially Anabella, Domingo, Massimo, and Bridget) were kind and helpful and really seemed to care that we had a great stay and experience, checking in with us frequently and sharing helpful advice about the area and interesting history of the hotel and gardens. Every single employee that we encountered, whether front or back of the house, was always attentive and courteous as we passed them in the halls or gardens, always making eye contact and greeting us with a hello and smile. The grounds and buildings are stunning, and the décor is truly a feast for the eyes. I'm a maximalist design lover, so this hotel checked every aesthetic box for me x 10. The 9 acres of gardens are impeccably cared for, and I can only imagine how stunning they would be in full bloom. We stayed in a one-bedroom suite in The Cellars building, which was beautifully appointed and spacious. It had a lovely terrace overlooking the blooming camellias. Turndown included hot water bottles, which was a really nice touch since it was winter season. We had only planned on having dinner at the hotel's restaurant, The Conservatory once, but after how impressed we were with our first night's meal and the service, we ended up canceling a couple of our other evening reservations. We did have a couple of truly memorable meals at other local restaurants, but it was also really nice to be able to stay at the hotel after a long day of activities and sightseeing and still feel like you were having a culinary experience. The breakfasts were also excellent, with a large variety of high-quality continental offerings (including a Bloody Mary and mimosa bar!) in addition to several hot breakfast menu choices. The garden views from the floor-to-ceiling windows in The Conservatory cannot be beaten. I think the restaurant and bar area were renovated and redecorated recently, and the designers did a fabulous job. My mother and I are still talking about the unique and beautiful fabric choices. The surrounding neighborhood Constantia is gorgeous, leafy and safe. There are many embassies/consulates in the area and it is also very close to the Constantia wineries, great shopping and the one of the very best botanical gardens in the world. The V&A Waterfront and many other popular tourist destinations are all within a 20-30 minute drive. It was very easy and affordable to get around using Uber. Don't miss a chance to stay at this special hotel if you get the opportunity!
