The title says it all. This hotel, tucked up against the slopes of Table Mountain is more than just a "hidden gem" in many ways. We booked our travel through the web and e-mails with Alta Bay. There was some trouble at first with our credit card going through due to security precautions in place at our bank here in... more

This place is run by two guys that have taken everything that they have learnt through out there careers in the hospitality industry and created the perfect hotel they you can tell that they love and want everyone who stays there to feel the same.

This stylish Cape Town boutique residence perfectly blends the feel of an art-lover's grand private home with the relaxed bonhomie of a very secret retreat. The wonderful thing about Alta Bay is that it caters both the well healed and also works hard at instilling a genuinely laid-back, home-from-home atmosphere. The grandeur and refined style of this boutique hotel stands... more

This a hotel that really does live up to its billing. If you want a hotel with class and unsurpassed value for money go for the Alta Bay.

The place itself is immaculately clean, the rooms with terrasses are wonderfull and the people serving breakfast and cleaning the rooms are so sweat (thank you Manfred,... more

We started our holiday in South Africa at Alta Bay and could not have chosen better. From our arrival (early in the morning) when our room was already available, until we left a week later the staff were anxious to please in every respect. Each time we returned to the hotel someone was there seeking to provide refreshment (free of... more

This is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in – I only wish I’d found it earlier in life! The hotel itself is beautiful with modern interiors and interesting objets d’art dotted around, but in today’s world of hip hotels that itself is not unique. What sets Alta Bay apart from an ever expanding pool of same... more
