Overview
Taj Cape Town is a combination of modern luxury with historic background. Placed in the center of very historic Cape Town, the hotel is a short step from the major business properties like South African Reserve Bank and Temple Chambers, while cultural concerns ground it among the old-world Castle of Good Hope and pedestrianized St George's Mall.
This old-world surrounding doesn't prevent Taj Cape Town from being one of the best examples of modern designs. These modern touches took a hold onto the entire hotel from its external appearance to inner facilities. You will find in the hotel everything for leisure like Jiva Grande Spa, fitness centre, a Taj Club floor and business including well-equipped business center, banqueting rooms and attentive Taj-trained staff.
The hotel offers 177 elegant rooms packed with air-conditioning, tea - and coffee - making facilities, 40-satellite television and high-speed wireless Internet in every room.
Whether you prefer filling dining or time in glamorous cafe, all of these are available in Taj Cape Town. The Bombay Brasserie offers Indian specialties, while Mint is available for all-day dining. You should pay a visit to the Cocktail Bar and Cigar Lounge or sample some seafood at the Twankey.
