Leading from the tip of Cape Town’s Long Street up to the slopes of Table Mountain, trendy Kloof Street gets the nod as one of the coolest streets on the planet.
But don’t take our word for it. That’s the word from the ultimate guide in city fun, Time Out, which recently punted our favourite Mother City thoroughfare as perfect for “date nights, hanging out with pals… and tucking into some of Cape Town’s finest eateries”.
A “bucketload of local buzz” is how they described Kloof Street Neighbourhood and it’s something we are particularly proud of as that buzz knocks on our doors of Cape Cadogan and More Quarters, as well as our More Quarters Residence. All tucked away in a quiet corner of Kloof Street – close enough to the action, yet quiet enough to enjoy the city buzz with sundowners on the patio.
From high-end fashion to contemporary art, burgers bursting out of their buns to exclusive wine tastings, Kloof Street is on our doorstep, and we’re thrilled to be able to share its artsy, eclectic vibe with guests. You’ll love it as much as the locals do, guaranteed.
Cast your eyes up and you’ll see Table Mountain standing as a sentinel overlooking the electric atmosphere of one of Cape Town’s most fun avenues.
Just a short hop away, guests can sun themselves on one of our beautiful beaches or tap into the unique cultural experience that is the Bo-Kaap, a former Malay Quarter which is ever-so-Insta-worthy, with its unmistakable, colourful painted houses.
If you’re visiting Cape Town and need a hub with heart to explore the Mother City and all she has to offer, Cape Cadogan and More Quarters are the quiet retreats you need after a busy day of exploring.
A charming collection of former heritage townhouses, More Quarters combines the best of both worlds – a self-catering stay but with the perks of a boutique hotel.
Expect a private home away from home with all your amenities, like a well-equipped kitchenette and a TV lounge. Throw thoughtful extras into the mix like luxury bath products, crisp linen, a mini bar and even toys and treats for the kids, and you’ll never want to leave.
Go full boutique with our upmarket Cape Cadogan, also just off Kloof Street. She’s graceful and historic – the perfect location for an upmarket retreat for discerning guests.
An original Georgian townhouse, with National Monument status, this stylish sophisticated boutique hotel offers 19 rooms delivering a private oasis with all the frills. Book one of our upstairs rooms and you’ll feast your eyes on Table Mountain morning, noon, and night. With an on-site spa, gym, pools, and restaurant, you can simply relax right here.
Cape Cadogan is consistently recognised in the Condé Nast Traveller Readers’ Choice Awards and is a 2022 double award winner – among the Top 50 Hotels in the World and No.3 among the Top 15 hotels in Southern Africa.
All the action on Kloof Street is within walking distance, while Cape Town International Airport is just 20 minutes’ drive away. More Quarters also has a shuttle service to Victoria & Alfred Waterfront, as well as nearby beaches and the Cape Winelands with its rich heritage spanning 300 years.
Pop the cork on your wine-tasting journey at nearby Groot Constantia or head a little further afield to Franschhoek, Stellenbosch and Paarl. They’re just over an hour’s drive from the Mother City, but we’ll take care of all the details so all you need to do is sample the excellent local wines and cuisine, enjoying the incredible mountain and vineyard scenery along the way.
