Gorgeous George + Harpers House Accommodation Special: Two of Cape Town’s Hottest Boutique Hotels

Eye-watering design is around every corner at these two boutique properties – hardly surprising given that one of them is a part of the Design Hotels stable, and the other is its sister property. Situated in the centre of town, off the bustling St George’s Mall precinct, Gorgeous George excites visitors with its superb design features, stylish furnishings and vibey sixth-floor rooftop bar and restaurant, Gigi.

Its sister guesthouse, Harpers House, is situated just off Green Point Main Road, in the sought-after Atlantic Seaboard. Although it’s quieter and more pared-back than its innercity counterpart, its welcoming atmosphere and tastefully plush decor and prime location, a short walk from the sparkling ocean give it a different kind of appeal.

About Gorgeous George

Housed in two thoughtfully renovated heritage buildings (combined into one), the hotel is decked out in pieces by some of the city’s hottest design talents (including Lucie de Moyencourt, David Krynauw and David Brits). The 32 exquisite rooms blend plush Victorian-style furniture with contemporary lighting and hand-painted wall art, creating the perfect haven to rest your head after a night out at Gigi – the hotel’s buzzy rooftop bar and restaurant.

It’s here where the “Hello, Gorgeous!” welcome from the friendly hostess as you enter tees you up for an evening of fun – which includes a signature cocktail each on arrival, and a two-course meal from chef Guy Bennett’s delectable menu – all against a backdrop of eyewateringly stunning cityscapes.
