“This Edwardian-era hotel was built in the early 1900s when Cecil Rhodes famously attempted to link Cape Town to Cairo by rail. Today its style is still reminiscent of the past with elegant interiors and panoramas that also figure prominently - especially during afternoon tea on Stanley Terrace. Let us arrange a sunset river cruise, guided nature drives and helicopter flights over the Falls to make your stay even more memorable.”
