Alta Bay

Alta Bay is located in Higgovale, the most upmarket suburb of the City Bowl. It is set high on the slopes of Table Mountain and offers beautiful views over Table Bay and the city. The establishment is conveniently situated approximately 2 km away from most of Cape Town's attractions, including the waterfront, Clifton and Camps Bay beaches, and within walking distance of Kloof Street with its numerous restaurants and coffee shops.

Surrounded by a lush native garden, Alta Bay combines understated luxury and urban chic with a laid-back and retreat atmosphere. Previously a 5-Star boutique hotel, it has recently been converted into a guesthouse with three large luxury units. Each unit has a separate entrance, a fully equipped kitchen or kitchenette, a private outside terrace, and offers many 5-Star facilities.

The Tuscan house is built on separate levels with a great sense of space and light throughout. It is designed in a contemporary style with bespoke furniture handcrafted locally. The management advises guests to have their own transport during their stay in Cape Town, as Alta Bay is located high on the slopes of Table Mountain. Having their own car will give them the flexibility to explore the region. Kloof Street with its many restaurants is only 1 km away, which is an easy walk downhill. However, returning can be quite an exercise. Children aged three to six years are not allowed.

The Garden Room (28 mu00b2) has a separate entrance, a fully equipped kitchenette, and an outside deck with a 2-seater dining table. Its bathroom has a shower and no bath.
