Overview

The Taj Cape Town is a luxurious tribute to the grand architecture of the original South African Reserve Bank and other historic buildings, constructed in the 1890s. The facades of the buildings have been impeccably restored, while the interiors were designed to recreate an era of glamour with a distinctly Indian influence. The hotel is ideal for guests wanting an upscale holiday experience where no detail is missed and every opportunity for refinement is offered.
