Bringing together local art, innovative design and some very fine cuisine, Gorgeous George Boutique Hotel is a set of cosy studios and larger suites at the very heart of South Africa’s Mother City. Located in a beautifully restored historic building and blending Art Deco with modern industrial chic, this is the ideal Cape Town accommodation for a sleek urban experience. You are on tree-lined St George’s Mall – the pedestrian avenue that runs through the centre of the city – and minutes away from local landmarks such as Greenmarket Square and the Company’s Gardens. Camps Bay and the V&A Waterfront are a short drive away.
The hotel is well appointed and suited to the modern traveller: high-speed complimentary Wi-Fi is available throughout the property and each room is air-conditioned and comes with a flat-screen television and a Bluetooth speaker. Socialising and dining take place on the hotel’s roof-top, a leafy haven where sun loungers surround a tiled Grecian pool and the reassuring shake of cocktails being made can be heard at the bar. The restaurant is exceptionally good – the executive chef trained in the legendary kitchens of the Cape Winelands – and you have the peace of mind of 24-hour reception and security.
The downtown setting and boundary-pushing design make the Gorgeous George Boutique Hotel a great choice for travellers who are looking to immerse themselves in an artistic, urban environment during their time in Cape Town. Most of its accommodations are spacious studios designed for a couple, but the hotel also offers two-bedroom suites for groups or families. The hotel will arrange a cot for children under two, and despite the restaurant’s reputation for fine, artfully presented food, there is a convenient child-friendly buffet as well.
Highlights
Activities
Gorgeous George is exactly that – simply gorgeous! The boutique hotel looks set to grace the pages of any in-vogue lifestyle, travel, or even interior design magazine worth its salt. Art-deco touches paired with luxe Victorian design elements have been included throughout this unique hotel setting and you’ll love their rooftop restaurant & bar overlooking the cityscape and its dazzling lights!
Rooms
One Bedroom Suite
There are 20 studios at Gorgeous George Boutique Hotel, each 35 square metres (376 square feet) in size and with an extra-length king-size bed (half of which can be split into twin beds). Comfortably, artistically furnished and complete with blackout curtains, the studio has a separate bathroom with a walk-in rain shower, luxury bath toiletries and a plush gown and slippers. The studios are air-conditioned and have free high-speed Wi-Fi; other tech conveniences include a large-screen television with Netflix, a tea and coffee station, complimentary bottled water and a Marshall Bluetooth speaker.
Other rooms
The hotel has eight one-bedroom suites for guests looking for a bit more space. At 44 square metres (474 square feet) there is enough room to include a lounge complete with its flat-screen television.
Even more space is available in the hotel’s two-bedroom suites. There are four of them and with 72 square metres (775 square feet), there is enough room for a pair of bedrooms, each with its bathroom (one has a free-standing bath as well as a shower) plus a lounge with flat-screen television.
Facilities
The hotel has 24-hour reception and security with the added availability of secure parking (at an extra cost) if you have a car plus a concierge service to help with bookings and transport. There is a private room in the hotel for functions, but nearly all the socialising and dining at Gorgeous George take place six floors up on the roof-top where you find a Grecian pool and sun loungers, artfully screened from the city and a professional mixologist who takes care of your needs at the bar. Guests can look forward to complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi throughout the entire hotel.
Dining
GiGi is the in-house restaurant and its setting on the roof-top ensures a view every time you sit down to eat there. Emphasizing local farm-to-fork produce, the kitchen is run with local passion and pride with a menu that is variable, accessible and unforgettably delicious – be sure to try the Spicy Lamb Ribs and 70% Choc Fondant.
Meals are enjoyed at tables on the rooftop though breakfast may be taken in your room. Special diets can be catered for on request, and although there is a child-friendly buffet at the restaurant, additional children’s meals are arranged at an extra cost.
