Art & Culture

Ellerman House Hotel Cape Town houses one of the largest private collections of South African art, displayed throughout the guest rooms, public areas, and a dedicated on-site gallery. Complimentary art tours led by in-house guides take guests through the collection, which rivals major museums. The property also features a state-of-the-art wine cellar that doubles as a design marvel, celebrating local winemaking.

The hotel's restaurant, Curate, serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner with a menu that changes daily and incorporates Cape Malay spices and fresh organic ingredients. The wine cellar holds over 9000 bottles of South African wines, including multiple vintages of Paul Sauer and Sadie Family wines. Guests can also request private-chef experiences in the exclusive-use villas.

Accommodations & Villas

The 11 individually decorated rooms and suites each have a balcony or terrace with panoramic ocean or mountain views. Three exclusive-use villas come with dedicated private chefs for fully personalized dining. All guest rooms are furnished with classic pieces, satellite TV, safes, and tea-and-coffee-making facilities.
