The Taj Cape Town is a luxurious tribute to the grand architecture of the original South African Reserve Bank and the old BoE building, constructed in 1890. The building has been impeccably restored, and features interiors designed to recreate an era of glamour with a distinctly Indian influence. The hotel is ideal for guests wanting an upmarket holiday experience where no detail is missed and every opportunity for refinement is offered.

The hotel is located within walking distance of the Company Gardens, St George’s Mall, St George’s Cathedral and Greenmarket Square, and is ideally situated for easy access to all of Cape Town’s attractions. Nearby must-see sites include Table Mountain, the excellent beaches at Camps Bay and Clifton, and the world-class shopping at the V&A Waterfront.
