Kensington Place

The stay

Kensington Place is a private hotel of eight rooms, exquisitely composed in the quiet suburb of Higgovale — steps from Table Mountain, minutes from the city. Each room is an individual world: locally commissioned artwork, handpicked linens, underfloor warmth, and views that command the Cape sky. Our small scale is intentional. It allows us to offer a hospitality that larger hotels cannot — unscripted, deeply personal, and genuinely extraordinary.

Kensington Place offers a setting of refined calm in Higgovale, where each guest room opens onto its own quiet view of the Cape sky. Handpicked linens and underfloor warmth keep the spaces comfortable, while locally commissioned artwork and smart technology add a thoughtful layer to daily life. The small scale means service remains personal, whether guests use the pool, request a transfer or enjoy the complimentary breakfast.

Within a tailor-made safari, the hotel provides a measured base in Cape Town before or after time in the bush. Its location near Table Mountain allows for flexible pacing, with breakfast included each morning and a choice of Superior or Standard Rooms suited to individual preferences.
