The Alphen Boutique Hotel

Found in the heart of Constantia – Cape Town’s oldest and most prestigious suburb – is Alphen Boutique Hotel & Spa, a sanctuary of calm just 15km from the bustling city centre. Surrounded by ancient oak trees, sprawling lawns, and original Cape Dutch architecture, this 5-star property feels worlds away from the pace of modern life, yet it's ideally located for exploring the Southern Suburbs, Table Mountain, or the beaches of the Atlantic Seaboard.

Relaxation comes easily here – whether it's a morning spent by the heated pool, a massage at the spa, or cocktails under the trees. Enjoy fresh pastries at la Belle Bistro or book a table at Blanko for thoughtfully curated Italian dining. With Kirstenbosch Botanical Garden and the Constantia Wine Route just a short drive away, you'll find the Alphen offers an ideal balance between escape and adventure. Children of all ages are welcome, with those aged 3 and under staying for free.

Accommodation ranges from Classic to Deluxe Suites, all styled with luxurious finishes and calming colour palettes. Some offer private terraces or patios, and one exclusive suite stands alone for guests seeking total privacy. Bathrooms are equipped with rain showers and generous baths, while select Superior Suites include separate His & Hers bathrooms. With just the right mix of modern comfort and historical charm, The Alphen offers a polished yet relaxed base from which to explore the best of Cape Town – and beyond.
