Overview of The Clarendon Fresnaye

South Africa, Cape Town Coast, Cape Town

Situated in Cape Town’s peaceful and largely wind-free suburb of Fresnaye, you will find the second jewel of the Clarendon Collection: The Clarendon – Fresnaye, a home once owned by the governor of the Cape and the Earl of Clarendon.

Overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, this beautiful boutique hotel exudes style and glamour. It has modern interiors and rooms that cater for families, honeymooners or the discerning, privacy-seeking traveller. The gorgeous garden features lush green lawns and vibrant stands of bougainvillea as well as two swimming pools surrounded by sun loungers.

    Great Boutique Style Hotel, light and vibrant with a mix of art collections. Great for couples or families. Owner run and managed, warm and friendly staff and good food. newly refurbished rooms and upgraded spaces around the hotel.

    An amazing experience – we were welcomed with delicious hot chocolates and cookies! This gem, nestled amongst the bougainvillea’s, is perfect for families or couples. Special treats offered throughout the day really gives it a homely feel. Dinner can be requested in advance.

    The Clarendon Fresnaye is situated under the beautiful Lions Head in Cape Town. The views are spectacular and the warmth and welcoming attitude of the staff gives you the feeling of coming home. We were fortunate to get a room in a private garden house that added to our privacy, but you can really savour in all the luxuries the hotel has to offer and still have the feeling that you have it all to yourself! The afternoon tea gives a special touch as it gives the guests reason to relax and chat without the hurry of the breakfast, when everyone has an agenda for the day.

    Clarendon guesthouse was everything promised. Good & friendly service, sorted out excursions for us so we didn’t waste our two days there. (should have stayed longer) Breakfasts excellent – didn’t have any other meals as it was easy to get to restaurants on sea front. We did the tour of the peninsular and the City and Table Mountain tours, both were great.
