Overview

The Clarendon Bantry Bay, isn’t a hotel that shouts. It whispers, rewards, relaxes and enchants. You know a boutique hotel is doing things right when half the people at the sunny breakfast tables are all return guests.

Enjoy sweeping sea views, warm 5-Star hospitality, perfect wind-free location and an intimate luxurious charm, you’ll find it difficult to stay anywhere else in Cape Town. It attracts a clientele that appreciates the effortless elegance, the understated luxury, the personal touches and the clockwork efficiency of a hotel that know exactly how to please their guests and keep surprising them.

This hotel is perfect for discreet global honeymooners looking for a low-profile hideaway. International empty-nesters looking for a quiet, pampered break or visiting celebrities looking for some time out of the spotlight and in the sun (with a separate dedicated entrance, exclusive zone and perfect confidentiality).

Most rooms, all suites, superior and Clarendon have sun-drenched balconies and spectacular sea views over the picturesque Bantry Bay and beyond. They are immaculately appointed, contemporary styled and all that you would need for a stress-free, experience-rich stay.

An on-site mini-spa with a magical masseuse and beautician. Whatever your personal requirements or requests, the management and staff are dedicated to ensuring that you get all the comforts, services, information and assistance you might need- no matter how exceptional.

The Clarendon Bantry Bay and The Clarendon Fresnaye, which are half a kilometre apart, are situated in one of the most exclusive suburbs of Cape Town.
