Cape TownLocated on its own quay on the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront, Cape Grace in South Africa is surrounded on three sides by water. Renowned for its elegant building, impeccable service and exquisite cuisine, this hotel is one of Cape Town’s finest.

"Located on the waterfront with its own quay, Cape Grace Hotel is an exclusive hotel in Cape Town, South Africa. Rumour has it that the Clintons and Obamas are fans of this property due to the secure location and distance from the V&A Waterfront restaurants. It’s also very good for families who are made to feel welcome from the get-go thanks to scheduled kids' activities, spa treatments for children, and even specially-sized dressing gowns for little ones."
