The Cellars-Hohenort - South Africa
Situated in the heart of the secure Constantia Valley in Cape Town, The Cellars-Hohenort unifies two great traditions: the magnificent restoration of the Cellars of the 18th century Klaasenbosch wine estate and the splendid Hohenort manor house previously owned by the Spilhaus family. In its renaissance as one of the great country house hotels of the Cape, the five-star Cellars-Hohenort is a member of the international Relais & Chateaux Association Nestled against the densely forested eastern slopes of Table Mountain, the hotel affords breathtaking views across the Constantia Valley to False Bay. With its understated luxury, antique furnishings and original works of art, the hotel is a celebration of traditional values and gracious living. The Hotel is adjacent to the world famous Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens and minutes away from the Constantia Wine Route. There are breathtaking scenic drives around the Cape of Good Hope and eleven world class golf courses in close proximity. It has nine acres of magnificently landscaped gardens and a small vineyard. The gardens feature roses, herbaceous borders, herbs, indigenous flora as well as a unique Knot Garden. In keeping with the beautiful natural surroundings, recreational facilities include two swimming pools, a tennis court and a chipping and putting golf green designed by Gary Player. We also have a fully equipped beauty salon, Carchele at the Cellars and the recently opened D & D Hair Salon.
