Andrea Buchanan is a content writer for a Cape Town accommodation website and recently did a survey on child friendly Cape Town villas and hotels
Accommodation in Cape Town is a varied and eclectic affair, and yet individuals with their brood in tow often have to make do with cramped self-catering quarters that are not conducive to a relaxed stay in the Mother City. Having children is wondrous on many levels, but giving up on the little luxuries like room service and en suite bathroom facilities is enough to get even the most devoted parent a bit down in the mouth.
That is why we thought it would be nice to make a little list of Cape Town accommodation venues that are cool enough to appeal to youngsters, yet luxurious enough to suit the parentals. These include:
1. The Commodore: If it is a fun nautical theme you are after, look no further than The Commodore. Situated on the vibey V&A Waterfront, the hotel’s waiters, porters and receptionists all dress as sailors and mariners, giving the lodgings a distinct whimsical feel.
The hotel is within walking distance of the Two Oceans Aquarium and also close to other child friendly entertainment venues like the Planetarium and Ratanga Junction Amusement Park. Parents, on the other hand, will enjoy access to 24hour room service, a health spa with a sauna and dining at the elegant onsite Clipper Restaurant. Rooms are large and spacious, which means there won’t be any need to clamour for space when you turn in for the night.
2. Waterfront Radisson Hotel: Another Cape Town accommodation gem situated on the Waterfront, the Radisson is the last word in style and elegance. The perfect option for those who visit Cape Town on business and need to know that their children are in capable hands, the hotel boasts a staff of experienced babysitters that will ensure that your stay proceeds without a hitch.
Once the children are safely in dreamland, you and your partner can head down to the onsite Tobago Restaurant that offers a delectable combination of local and international cuisine. Alternatively, opt for a decadent massage at the in-house beauty salon or swim a few laps in the rim-flow swimming pool that overlooks the Atlantic Ocean. Best of all – you get to choose between either a mountain or sea view!
3. Winchester Mansions: This boutique hotel is the perfect place to take your little ones. Small enough to be intimate, yet large enough to constitute a proper getaway, the hotel boasts a warm ambience and friendly staff that will do anything they can to make your stay more comfortable. Children are welcomed and there is a dedicated babysitting service to take them off your hands on evenings that you want to spend some time alone with your significant other. A children’s menu caters for even the fussiest eaters and there are even little pint-sized gowns come bedtime!
Mom and Dad will enjoy sampling the very best in Cape Cuisine at Harvey’s , the onsite restaurant and can head across the road to the Sea Point promenade for a romantic stroll after dinner.
All this and more await your family in the Mother City! Are you tired of spending your holidays cloistered in self-catering Cape Town holiday villas a million miles from anything that resembles family friendly entertainment? Fret no more, head out to one of these wonderful establishments and see what Cape Town accommodation is all about!
