Labotessa Luxury Boutique Hotel

We had an absolutely exceptional stay at Labotessa Luxury Hotel. The hotel has a fantastic, very central location which allowed us to easily walk to museums, great restaurants, and different neighborhoods to explore. We stayed in the Presidential Suite which was gorgeous and so spacious. The private elevator opens directly into a stunning two story modern home with beautiful furnishings, 3 bedrooms, and two stunning balconies with sweeping views and a plunge pool. Every detail was perfect from Dyptique bath products to amazing food, treats, and drinks left for us each day. We so appreciated all of the extra touches and the warmth and hospitality of everyone working there. It truly felt like a second home while we explored all that Cape Town has to offer. The breakfast was also fantastic and we loved sitting outside by the fountain. Martin and his team are outstanding and incredibly helpful and made sure that our stay was perfect.

On 1 of the oldest squares in Cape Town is one of the oldest dwellings beautiful restored into the Labotessa Boutique Hotel. Everything is to a exceptional standaard. Bathrobe, slippers, fresh fruits, different teas, a complimentary mini bar which is stocked every day, on day of arrival een bottle of wine and a warm welcome from the owner Johan and the manager Martijn. The staff is very professional and friendly and will serve your breakfast all day will it be inside the cafe on the terrasse or in your room. The breakfast is a la carte and outstanding. The hotel is very centraal it's for instance a 8 minute walk to 81 Long street where you can catch the hop on hop off bus ( The red line) and the next stop will be table mountain, and the old fort is about a 10 minute walk and is safe to do so. Having said this the hotel can arrange tours for you with 1 of the best tour operator in Cape Town. We drove around for 2 days with Rachid a very friendly knowledgeable man who can tell you much about the history, the vineyards, wildlife and other facts about South Africa. Rachid speaks English,French and Arabic. The hotel offers a paid limousine service which we thought was well worth since I have back problems, didn't have to touch anything myself and was brought to my room. Don't be a number in a big hotel and stay here you will never regret it.

Nothing

Everything was outstanding; the people, the service, the facilities and the location. The team at Labotessa went out of their way to cater to any request where possible. The rooms and communal areas have a perfect mix of a modern, contemporary feel whilst also recognising it’s position a significant building in Cape Town in times gone by. Although everything was outstanding, the people at Labotessa are really what makes it, from the Managers/owners through to the diligent and conscientious staff around them. Definitely worthy of repeat returns.

N/A

The room was incredible, lots of little treats in the fridge. The check in experience was exceptional, like sitting down and chatting with a friend. The room was gorgeous, straight out the lift into the room. Had a mini kitchen, everything you could need. Amazing views and lovely big bathroom. Loved the breakfast choices and the overall interior design is beautiful.

The location is in the the centre of town, on a few streets it felt a bit uncomfortable but that's cape town.

I have stayed in a lot of great hotels around the world, but the service at Labotessa was the best I have ever experienced. The staff were extremely attentive and happy to help in whatever way they could. Each morning they would open the cafe early for us to be able to have breakfast before our tours each day and someone always came down with a huge smile when we returned to check on our day. Claudine at front desk was simply amazing. She was there in the mornings to make sure we had breakfast and with bottles of water for our day. Martijn and Johan were exceptional hosts. The hotel is intimate and the rooms were very stylish and spacious which was great to be able to relax after a long day and not feel cramped. I would stay at this hotel again in a heartbeat when I go back to Cape Town.

Nothing - it was perfect!

From the moment we arrived at Labotessa, it felt like home! Claudine was welcoming and gave us a full breakdown of the hotel and our room. We really appreciated the complimentary afternoon snacks and all day breakfast until 4pm.

the location of the hotel is downtown where it is not very walkable due to safety. though, it was our first time to cape town and the hotel is well situated if you plan on exploring a bit of everything (water, downtown, wine lands and table mountain)

Labotessa Hotel is a choice that made my vacation to Capetown extraordinary. This is a true luxury boutique hotel. It's dreamy and gorgeous. Many thanks to the owners and staff. Africa is such a special place, and Labotessa is a perfect home away from home when visiting Capetown and the surrounding region.

a beautiful hotel in a very good location, accessible to various different areas of the city. immaculately renovated to an exceptionally high standard with no detail spared - the studios were spacious, elegant and yet practical! the staff were the most attentive I could possibly imagine - nothing was too much trouble from packing us breakfast for an early flight to offering to help with reservations. the breakfast was also fantastic! wouldn’t hesitate to recommend!

The building and the rooms are beautiful. We were received with a welcome drink and a friendly chat when we arrived. The fridge was stocked with drinks and snacks, and the very spacious room included a little kitchen corner and a high table. Breakfast took a little while, as the croissants were freshly baked - but worth it, as this was by far the best breakfast we had on our entire trip. We can only recommend Labotessa and would come back anytime.

There really wasn’t anything not to like, everything exceeded our expectations.

From the moment of arrival right up to departure, personal, professional and ethical services was provided by the Owners and Staff. Every detail received attention to improve your experience of comfort. Time is spend to make you feel spoiled without the fuss.

Nothing is perfect, but the damn, this is close to perfect.
