When travellers used to the best in the world call the hotel “superb”, “excellent”, “wonderful”,

“first-class”, “the best ever” … where management and staff are “exceptionally courteous”,

“friendly” with “efficient and out-of-the ordinary assistance” that made their stay “the most

memorable”, is there any wonder they come back time and time again?

That’s the Victoria & Alfred Hotel at the V&A Waterfront … where luxury, location and

sumptuous cuisine are an experience of a lifetime.

Step into the lounge for the sight of a lifetime … seals frolicking, yachts in sail,

cruisers gliding by, trawlers trekking to deep sea fishing grounds, perhaps a

dragon boat race or opera on the water … all set off by the city’s majestic icon,

Table Mountain.

On your doorstep … the bustling sights and sounds of the world famous Victoria

& Alfred Waterfront. Brimming with shopping opportunities, craft market finds

and entertainment galore, the Waterfront could keep you occupied for days.

Stroll through the sophisticated mall, grab a cappuccino or take a seat at any

one of the first rate restaurants and drink in the surrounding harbourside views.

It’s the detail that gives the Victoria & Alfred Hotel its elegance, intimacy, romance

and reputation … the wooden staircase, the telescope, flowers and the service

… friendly and efficient yet never intrusive. Then there are the bedrooms – 94

spacious, air-conditioned, en-suite rooms spread over three floors.

Our superior luxury double rooms boast separate bath, shower and toilet,

king-sized beds and are creatively-styled and well-appointed. All have coffee

and tea on tap, with private bar, safe and trouser press … every single one has

a view over the ever-awake Alfred Basin or the piazza.

Blessed with striking vistas of the harbour and

buzzing piazza, our third floor is home to 26

sophisticated, superior loft bedrooms – the ideal

space for visitors seeking a cosmopolitan

experience with all the luxury that a four star

hotel brings.

The vibrancy and local colour of the Waterfront

might entice you to leave your luxurious

surrounds to mingle with the buskers and

dancers who bring indigenous music to life –

on the other hand, each room and loft is such

a haven of comfort and indulgence, we’d be

surprised if you’d want to leave at all!

A stone’s throw from the water’s edge in the heart of the V&A Waterfront, this

chic new restaurant offers a wonderful atmosphere in an inviting and contempo-

rary interior, a delicious artisanal and wholesome menu, with superb views

across the Waterfront to Table Mountain.

Business people tell us time and again that the Victoria & Alfred Hotel’s

sophisticated Forum Conference and Banquet Centre is a cut above, with

state-of-the-art equipment. Only the highest standards of service are good

enough, under our team of international chefs. The Forum is popular for

conferences, dinner dances and special occasions, such as birthdays and

weddings. The venue can host from 20 to 300 for meetings and cocktails and

110 for a dinner dance.

There are wireless internet and fax facilities and a full secretarial service, with

secure parking in front of the hotel. Our travel desk can arrange tours to any of

the exciting local ‘hot’ spots … Cape Point, the winelands, Table Mountain,

helicopter sightseeing flips, leisure activities like golf, fitness and squash, Cape

Town jazz, township nightclubs or serious symphonies …

Then there’s location … right in the middle of one of the country’s top destinations

… you can walk in the utmost safety to some of the finest retail outlets, from

designer stores to restaurants, craft markets, cinemas and entertainment in the

amphitheatre. Immerse yourself in the spirit of reconciliation as you stand and

reflect with South Africa’s Nobel Laureates in the newly commissioned Peace

Square adjacent the hotel.

The personal handwritten note of welcome is telling … a sign of the style that

is the hallmark of a very special hotel … the style that sets the Victoria & Alfred

Hotel on the Pierhead in Cape Town’s Victoria & Alfred Waterfront apart.

You can feel the ambiance of colonial Cape Town as you step into the foyer,

sense the past of shipwrecks and storms that colour every corner, then relax

in the elegant contemporary bedrooms … and savour the atmosphere of the

world’s most famous working harbour. Built in 1904 as the North Quay

Warehouse and converted in 1990 to a luxury hotel, it is named in honour of

the Queen of England and her son who visited the Cape in 1870, when Prince

Alfred officially opened the Breakwater basin, today’s Victoria & Alfred

Waterfront.
