One&Only Cape Town is situated in Cape Town’s fashionable V&A Waterfront area. From its vantage point, you can look up to Table Mountain, and easily access the bars and restaurants of the Waterfront.
The rooms here are spacious and are either located in the main hotel building or on a man-made island. The hotel has a large gym, pool and a spa which offers some of the best treatments in the city. One&Only Cape Town is ideal for families with younger children and offers a package of activities specifically designed for children. Restaurants here include the world-famous Nobu, which serves Japanese cuisine, and Reuben’s, which has an international menu with a few tasty local dishes.
OUR OPINION:
We think that One&Only Cape Town is one of the best hotel options in the city due to its great location in the heart of the V&A Waterfront area. We also like how the hotel's buildings are designed to make the most of the views of Table Mountain, with all but a handful of rooms having a terrace or balcony.

Dining options include the Michelin-starred Nobu, Reuben Riffel’s brasserie Reuben’s, and an alfresco Mediterranean dining spot, Isola. The hotel has an extensive wine cellar (the 'Wine Loft') and hosts wine-pairing dinners with local winemakers. There's a bar and lounge, Vista, which serves cocktails and vintage Champagnes, and which overlooks Table Mountain. The hotel can also arrange in-room or private dining on request.

Facilities and activities
The hotel has a gallery and a boutique showcasing South African fashion and art.
