Cape Town is without a doubt South Africa’s boutique hotel paradise. From modern, trendy and urban chic establishments to quaint locations that instantly bring you back to the bygone era of Victorian lace,  picture crystal chandeliers, Chesterfields, English roses, and antique paintings: Cape Town has it all, and more.

South Africa’s mother city in that respect offers travelers a wide selection of designer hotels treating their guests with an experience of exclusivity, comfort and luxury. Bellow we will talk about two must stay at hotels the Urban Chic Boutique Hotel and the 15 on Orange hotel.

Urban Chic Boutique Hotel

Urban Chic Boutique Hotel situated in Long Street in the midst of the cosmopolitan and bustling city center, stands as a contemporary and up-market oasis. It has been selected as one of the best in the 2010 AA Travel Guides and American Express Accommodation Awards in the category Boutique Hotels.

Housed in a completely reconstructed building, the atmosphere at the Urban Chic breathes refinement and exclusivity. The decor subtly mixes African mahogany furniture with honeyed Spanish marble, along with warm textured carpets. Contemporary artwork of Alexander Krenz is enhanced by crushed linen curtains. What else can you expect at one of Cape Town’s most popular luxury boutique hotels? Twenty individually appointed bedrooms that all have a floor to ceiling views of Table Mountain and the city center. Service in this boutique hotel leaves nothing to be desired.

To find out more about why Urban Chic Hotel should be your Cape Town boutique hotel of choice, you will have to stay there. Some things are not to be expressed in words.

15 on Orange

Adjacent to Cape Town’s famous Company Garden’s, you will find 15 on Orange. This hotel is one of the most ultramodern and luxurious boutique hotels one can find in Cape Town; it is here where design reigns and rules and luxury holds sway. Its impressive seven stories high atrium gives you a good impression of what the rest of Cape Town’s trendiest designer hotel is like: slick, chic, suave and stylish. Apart from its impeccably appointed suites, the 15 on Orange is the place to be to celebrate the evening and night in style.

The Murano Bar at the 15 on Orange hotel is most probably the trendiest cocktail bar in the whole of Cape Town, and perhaps the Southern Hemisphere. The venue’s name is inspired by Murano, a series of interlinked islands in Italy’s Venetian Lagoon – a region that is famous for glass making. It’s exactly here where the two-story glass curtain comes from.

Comprising of tens of thousands of hand crafted glass links, the curtain dangles above the bar, casting flickering specks of light onto the deep blue luxurious carpet, creating the ultimate Mediterranean feel.
