Stunning Location & Views: Overwhelmingly praised for its prime position overlooking Clifton Beach, Camps Bay, and the Atlantic Seaboard, with unobstructed ocean vistas from all rooms.

My fiancé and I spent 7 nights at 21 Nettleton and were wowed by our entire experience. The location at the top of Clifton has the best views in Cape Town overlooking Clifton Beach, Camps Bay, and the 12 Apostles with unobstructed views. The butler service is exceptional. They are quickly responsive to all requests that guests send through the in-room iPad, and you are given a WhatsApp contact to make requests when you are off-premises. The staff made an effort to get to know our preferences -- as an example after we had ordered Coke Zeros a few times the butler offered to swap out all the regular Cokes in our complimentary minibar for Coke Zeros. We would also highlight the hotel’s concierge capabilities (we loved Nathan!), they arranged massages, a private yoga class, and a private hiking guide, and all were very high quality. Last shoutout to the chef’s signature homemade berry crumble, one of the best desserts we’ve ever had!

From the moment we were picked up at the airport we experienced the most amazing service. Nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff. Nathan helped us make the most of our time in Cape Town and I’d recommend hiring the car and knowledgable guide (Shack) for the day. Our suite - Queen - had the best view of anywhere we’ve stayed before. Dinner, breakfast and afternoon canapés were delicious. Black Ubers were always close by and easy to get you into the centre. Recommendations for dinner / bars were spot on. We’ll definitely be back and can’t recommend it highly enough. We felt like royalty!

We loved every bit of our stay here. The staff were friendly and helpful, always going above and beyond to ensure our comfort. The location was perfect and the views were nothing short of spectacular with all the Clifton beaches in site. We loved the fact that we could hear the ocean while lying by the pool. It was also convenient to hike lions head right from our doorstep. This is our second time visiting this hotel, this time we took the airbnb option and were still able to add breakfast onto our stay. We cannot wait to return!!

We stayed for 5 nights at the apartment of the 21 Nettleton and were overwhelmed by the stunning views and beauty of the apartment and hotel. Dirk, Nathan and the whole team were super kind and made our stay unforgettable. We would definitely recommend staying there and would absolutely love to come back. Thank you for everything, Leopold and Jule

A great experience. This is a house turned to Hotel. It was a unique experience and a quite pleasant one. The location and the views are incredible. The service was very customizable and personal. And the hotel it’s self is an art gallery. I recommend.

I know it’s easy to exaggerate reviews when you love it and had a great time, but 21 Nettleton is seriously the most incredible place I’ve stayed at in recent years. Never have I seen luxury blended with charm in this way. And since it’s super easy to write a few words that proves nothing I will therefore let the pictures do the talking. (Pictures are not edited!) Probably the best hotel in South Africa in 2025.

This was the final place we stayed on a month long trip starting in London through Spain and Tanzania. Cape Town and 21 Nettelton are amazing.

Ultimate Perfection We stayed at 21 Nettleton at the start of our honeymoon and it was absolutely perfect. PERFECT! The hotel itself is a mansion on the hill top with only 6 rooms, so you get ultimate privacy, attention to detail and peace. The staff are all fantastic, on hand for any little thing you need and nothing is too much trouble for them. The pool is lovely, with a small jumping ledge, if you like that sort of thing (I do!). Breakfast is a feast and the sundowners canapes are a wonderful addition. We also opted to have dinner one night, which you can arrange in advance, and it was absolutely worth every penny - they will basically cook whatever you want and we asked for a dinner centred around grilled crayfish. It was amazing. I review almost all of my stays, because I find them useful. And I have never found a place that truly deserves a 10/10, but 21 Nettleton definitely does. We will be returning and recommending it to everyone!
