The Details
Location
Palm House Boutique Hotel and Spa sits at 10 Oxford Street in Upper Wynberg, a leafy historic suburb on the eastern slopes of Table Mountain. The setting feels suburban and residential rather than city centre, yet the hotel is well placed for the Mother City's main draws. Guests can reach the V&A Waterfront and central Cape Town, Cape Town International Airport, the Atlantic Seaboard beaches, the Constantia wine farms and False Bay or Cape Point without long drives.
Rooms
Accommodation is split between the century-old main house and the surrounding gardens. Ten Deluxe rooms inside the manor house are individually decorated in a contemporary opulent style, with options including Deluxe Single, Deluxe Queen, Deluxe Double, Deluxe Twin and Deluxe King configurations.
Five Garden Suites are arranged around the pool terrace and gardens. These come in one, two and three-bedroom layouts, giving families and small groups room to spread out while still enjoying full hotel service.
Dining
Executive chef Gregory Henderson oversees both of the hotel's restaurants, with menus driven by seasonal Cape produce and a sustainability focus. Palm Terrace is the relaxed all-day venue, serving breakfast through to lighter daytime fare and casual dinners.
De Tafel is the more adventurous proposition, an elegant dinner-only room for longer tasting-style menus. Both restaurants are open to non-resident visitors, alongside Bar 1920 for cocktails and aperitifs.
Activities
The on-site Açaí Spa and Wellness Oasis uses the Africa-sourced Healing Earth range for its hand, foot, facial and body treatments. Facilities include four treatment rooms, a mani-pedi studio, an outdoor jacuzzi and a Banya sauna.
A qualified concierge team can arrange airport transfers, day excursions, restaurant bookings, wine estate visits and guided tours, making it easy to combine a Cape Town stay with Constantia winelands days, Cape Point drives and Table Mountain outings.

Safari Specialist - Southern Africa
Knows Palm House Boutique Hotel & Spa backwards. Your direct contact from first enquiry to the day you come home.
With Zené and Jolene across the team.
"Jolene was simply extraordinary. She put together what became an absolutely incredible African trip for us in the space of barely three weeks, and from the outset her responsiveness, knowledge and genuine enthusiasm were exceptional. Nothing was ever too much trouble, responses were almost immediate, and she very quickly understood exactly what we were looking for, our expectations and the way we like to travel. More than simply being an expert at what she does, Jolene genuinely cared about making the trip special for us, and that came through in every aspect of her planning. What particularly impressed us was the flexibility with which she brought everything together. We already had some of our own arrangements in place, including international flights and staying with friends in Cape Town, but Jolene seamlessly incorporated those into the overall itinerary and still organised all the surrounding logistics and transfers. The safari component she designed was outstanding, taking us through Kruger, Victoria Falls, Chobe and the Okavango Delta, before finishing in Cape Town and the Stellenbosch wine region. Every part flowed beautifully and the lodges, experiences and logistics were exceptional. Just as importantly, Jolene stayed in contact throughout the trip at all the key moments, which made travelling so much easier. She would check us in for our internal flights and send through the boarding passes, confirm transfers the day before each pick-up, and make sure everything was in place before we ever had to think about it. That attention to detail, and the fact that she was always one step ahead, removed so much of the usual travel stress and allowed us simply to enjoy the trip. It was genuinely the trip of a lifetime, put together in an extraordinarily short timeframe, and Jolene deserves enormous credit for making it all happen. We could not recommend her highly enough."
