Overview of Dock House Boutique Hotel & Spa

South Africa, V&A Waterfront

Located in the heart of Cape Town’s V&A Waterfront, the Dock House Boutique Hotel & Spa combines classic Victorian architecture with contemporary style. With manicured gardens, a relaxing pool and bar area, and individually-designed bedrooms, the Dock House is an ideal retreat after a day of exploring.

With the V&A Waterfront right on your doorstep, there is no shortage of things to do: browse the world-class shops and boutiques, visit the Two Oceans Aquarium, take a sunset cruise or dine out in style. The city centre and many of the Mother City’s many attractions are close by –  take a trip up Table Mountain in the cable car, relax on the stunning beaches of Camps Bay or Clifton, explore the famous wineries of Constantia or Stellenbosch, or enjoy a day-tour around the Cape Peninsula to Cape Point.

    We loved the Dock House Hotel. It was so small and romantic. The staff was so attentive and kind. We often ate at the Queen Victoria Hotel and the food and service were very good. We enjoyed going to V&A Waterfront and had fun at the Cause / Effect bar. Jim even went into the pool one day (but it was quite cold).

    An intimate and beautiful property set in the perfect location, right within walking distance from the V&A Waterfront, Aquarium and lots more. The rooms are quite large and are decorated quite elegantly, it has a historic feel to it. The property has a beautiful lawn area where guests can relax by the pool on the sun beds and enjoy a glass of wine to unwind. The property also has a spa which is within walking distance which guests can make use of to relax. It’s the perfect little gem for honeymooners and couples.

    A truly classy and elegant property, located right in the heart of V&A Waterfront. The Dock House is perfect for couples and honeymooners, with the shopping mall and restaurants right on its doorstep. Guests can take a pleasant walk through the docks and enjoy the buzz of Cape Towns most popular attraction. The beautifully designed Victorian suites are spacious and combined with contemporary styled architecture. Guests can unwind and rejuvenate their senses in the spa as well as dine in the privacy of their own room should they so wish to, as the butler is available 24 hours for ultimate convenience.
