About

Perched above the Atlantic Ocean in Bantry Bay, Ellerman House feels more like an elegant private residence than a hotel. Originally built as a grand seaside home in 1906, it now offers beautifully designed rooms, exceptional dining and one of South Africa's most remarkable private art collections. Every detail reflects a deep appreciation for the country's culture, craftsmanship and hospitality.

Cape Town is a city of striking contrasts. Start your morning with a walk along the Sea Point Promenade, spend the afternoon exploring the colourful streets of Bo-Kaap or ride the cable car up Table Mountain. Back at Ellerman House, discover South African art woven throughout the house, enjoy a glass of local wine overlooking the ocean and watch the light fade across the Atlantic. It's a place that captures the spirit of the Cape in every sense.

Home to one of South Africa's most important private collections, with more than 1,000 works displayed throughout the house.
