On your marks, get set, go: if you want to book Ellerman House, you need to move fast. It's one of the most popular boutique hotels in Cape Town (quite rightly, if you ask us). Perched on the slopes of Lion's Head in Bantry Bay, it's shielded from the winds that can sometimes breeze through the city.
Rooms in the hotel are colonial in style, whereas the villas are modern and great for groups of friends. Peruse the contemporary art collection. Sample a bottle from the 7,500-strong South African wine gallery. Or indulge in our personal guilty pleasure: homemade cakes and treats fresh from the guest pantry.
