Bo Kaap, Cape Town

At the very top of the residential suburb on the eastern flank of Signal Hill, The Dorp Hotel offers the most incredible views of Cape Town, one of the world’s most beautiful cities. Dorp means ‘village’, and in its most diminutive sense, that’s exactly what the hotel is – a compound of architecturally distinct buildings, clustered around a wild, bird-filled garden, with Onderdorp, a separate wing, located the length of the block below. Dorp Hotel is the perfect place from which to explore Table Mountain and Cape Town!

Sleep


With 41 rooms between Dorp and Onderdorp, we offer a wide selection of accommodation options. The intention has always been to offer something for everyone. No two rooms are the same! From great value rooms that open onto garden patios under leafy arbours, to huge suites with kitchens and fireplaces; compact rooms with enormous views to top-tier studio-style apartments with his and her bathrooms, and views that will keep you in bed (or your bath!) for days.

Eat

Guests can enjoy hearty meals in the beautiful and homely Salon - with exquisite views of Table Mountain. Our kitchen prepares a somewhat old-fashioned choice of generously portioned, simple, home-style meals. From time to time we make small changes but we believe in consistency, and have perfected dishes that have been on our menu since we opened, like the twice-baked cheese soufflé, spinach and ricotta ravioli with burnt-sage butter, and of course, our famous rotisserie roast chicken.

Relax

Our guests have been known to describe Dorp as "relaxed luxury". We are not your average hotel, we are a collection of eclectic spaces, with lounges, pools, gardens, rooftops and hidden nooks in which to take some time out and relax. We have mixed the old with the new and quirky to bring you a treat for the senses, whether it be our beautiful fabrics, music playing in the salon, delicious cakes, exquisite views or scents of the mountain.

Explore

Situated at the top of the Bo Kaap, Dorp is perfectly positioned for one to venture out into the village below to explore the culture and tastes of the area. A mere 5 minute drive from the V&A Waterfront and all it has to offer, not to mention just down the road from the Table Mountain Cable Car, around the block from the Seapoint promenade, and just over the hill from Camps Bay. Be warned that at 12 o'clock the noon gun goes off a few metres behind the hotel!

Conferencing

Beneath Dorp Hotel one will find Onderdorp, a compound of buildings with accommodation for 25 guests. Just a short yet steep walk down the hill from the main hotel, Onderdorp is perfect for private functions. Palm House offers a private library, demonstration kitchen, lounge and veranda which can be used for events and functions. The Games Room can host up to 30 guests as a conference or dining room, with a fireplace and large TV. With many smaller breakaway rooms and nooks, Onderdorp is the ideal spot to host small conferences, retreats and work meetings.

Functions & Events

As mentioned above, both Dorp and Onderdorp have a variety of options for small groups from weddings to birthdays, engagements and other intimate celebrations. Our team will be able to assist in curating the perfect event for you and your guests.
