The most amazing and luxurious boutique hotel in the whole of the Cape. Excellent service , great hospitality and huge comfortable and fabulously designed bedrooms. Breakfast was wonderful it was sometimes a wrench to leave ! This part of the city is clearly being regenerated with amazing bars and restaurants nearby or a short Uber away . We’ll definitely be going back to Cape Town but only to this hotel which is definitely a hidden secret .

Highly recommended.
We loved everything about this hotel from the friendliness of the staff to the spacious and gracious room. Rachel greeted us in a very welcoming and friendly manner and allowed us to check in much earlier than the 3pm advertised time. This was very welcome after an 11 hour overnight flight. The complimentary mini bar was a nice touch as well. We will definitely return.

Surprises and delight around every corner. Our suite was amazing, there were little treats awaiting us. Delicious! I don’t want to say as not to spoil it for others :) Rachel made our stay extra special from the moment we arrived to seeing us off as if we were visiting our family member. Our daughter loved her! The rest if the staff and the breakfast was also a wonderful. There was a couple events with live music in the square it was a good vibe and brought a bit of life to the area and ended early. Landing in Capetown and being our first stay we were more than delighted 6 star! Thank you for the special moments.

Amazing!
Unreal! We booked the presidential suite during our very first stay in Cape Town, it was an unbelievable introduction to South Africa. Where do I begin. It was primarily for a birthday celebration and so the accommodation worked well. The hotel is central to Cape Town, with clear views of Table mountain. Literally, the hotel was walking distance from many restaurants. There was a brand new trendy noodle Asian fusion restaurant literally right by the entrance to the hotel which we indulged in. The hotel also has parking accommodation for guests. Right when we got into the suite, it had this Manhattan like vibe with the elevator opening up right into the living room of the bottom floor. There were two master bedrooms on the top floor with a library lounge sofa area nested between the rooms. A balcony connected the master bedrooms, which both had chic bathtubs and extravagant showers. On the bottom floor, there was yet another bedroom, this one with only a shower. There was a luxurious living room with modern art and décor and of course a majestic dining table overlooking the city center. Also, a very nice pool outside on the bottom floor balcony. The property was kept clean at all times, all the chic and modern equipment ranging from new age slick blending machine to the toaster, even the microwave all in harmony with the elegant design of the place, all functioned perfectly. The attendant had unlimited booze refreshed daily in the fridge

This Hotel experience was exceptional! Matijn from the time I booked until I arrived was very attentive. He helped me to find and make reservations at different restaurants and tours. He made sure everything was perfect for my first time in Cape Town. Johan, on of the owners was there to greet us when we arrived. He was very detailed and told us the history of the hotel and gave us a tour of the hotel. Johan was very hands on in making sure that our experience was great. The hotel is beautiful, the entire staff was amazing and this will be the only hotel I choose when I say stay in Cape Town. This is the best hotel experience you will ever have

Amazing stay
Incredible boutique hotel. Hard product is top notch, from the decor and furnishings to the Le Creuset crockery and Diptyque toiletries. The service has matched it, nothing has been too much for Martijn and the team. I recommend to anyone wishing to stay in central Cape Town.

Incredible Hotel
From a guy that lives in nice hotels as I travel for work a ton, trust me this place is incredible. A hidden Gem. The rooms are huge, stocked with drinks/bites to eat (included), and the staff is amazing. The look, the vibe, the feel of this place is off the charts. Stay here - its the right move, coming from a guy that was in about 45 5 star hotels last year.

Labotessa will stay with you
The online brochure for Labotessa Boutique Hotel claims, "Labotessa will stay will you, long after your stay with us has ended." Indeed, it does. Labotessa is quite simply one of the most charming, luxurious, and beautiful boutique hotels we have ever stayed in. From its spacious and meticulously restored suites with plenty of plugs, pillows, and other sumptuous touches (such as the free minibar and bath products from Diptyque) to its cozy and delicious cafe downstairs (don't miss the Eggs Benedict or the Apple Tart), Labotessa is an oasis of classic design and modern comfort in Cape Town. Moreover, the warm and personalized service provided by Johan, Martijn, and the rest of the team at Labotessa made what could have been a nightmare vacation--we stayed during a Level 4 lockdown--into a truly memorable and enjoyable experience. The location was perfect: walkable to almost anywhere downtown and close to the waterfront and other areas via the free town car service. There are many choices of high-end hotels in Cape Town, ranging from grand dames to the ultra-modern, but this one truly stands out for its beautiful design, its gracious hospitality, and its central location. Stay here--it will stay with you.

This property is spectacular! We have had the most incredible experience at this luxury boutique hotel — arguably the best in the world. Everything about this hotel is 6 stars. The property owner previously worked as a Senior Executive for a world renown luxury hotel brand. He has thought of literally everything travelers could want to enjoy in a room, as well as to experience while staying overnight, or for days on end in Cape Town. This property will blow anyone way with it’s fine attention to detail, amazing comforts, and thoughtful, generous amenities. The interior design of the rooms/suites is utterly phenomenal. We will definitely recommend this hotel to everyone we know so that they might enjoy as well.

Booking at Labotessa proved to be the best decision we made during our vacation. Upon arrival, the Front of House Manager, Martijn greeted us personally and arranged for a small afternoon tea to be served during our check in and registration. During our tea, we enjoyed good conversation and Labotessa’s delectable, homemade peanut butter cookies. We were then shown to our suite. Our room was immaculate, spacious, and well appointed. The rooms’ windows looked out over the square and offered an unobstructed view of Lion’s Head Peak – gorgeous. We were also greeted by a handwritten welcome note and a complimentary bottle of locally produced red wine (Stellenbosch). The room was stocked with complimentary water, juice, soda, cocktail makings, cheese, olives, crackers, homemade humus, Nespresso, teas, and local nougats. When we ventured out each day, Martijn ensured that the hotel’s car was available to takes us (free of charge) wherever we wanted to go. This same accommodating attitude persisted throughout our stay: we were escorted on our short walks to nearby restaurants after dark… our umbrellas were opened and dried… ticket issues were addressed and resolved by the staff…
