In 1990 a row of eight restored historic cottages located alongside Mount Nelson Hotel’s Sydenham Terrace pathway, adjacent to the secluded Garden Cottage pool, were converted into elegantly appointed Garden Cottage Suites.
A few steps away from the main hotel building and reception area, each cottage is situated behind a tranquil heaven-scented rose garden and enclosed by a quaint picket fence – ensuring privacy, peace and quiet.
Take in the striking Table Mountain backdrop, fresh air and sunshine as you make your way up the garden path towards your cottage. A shady veranda is the perfect spot to breakfast, and an ideal place from which to watch the squirrels at play.
Each cottage is individually decorated and elegantly appointed with the likes of toile wallpaper, Venetian mirrors, comfortable oversize couches, four poster beds and glamorous marble bathrooms. Special touches include mini-libraries, fully-equipped wet bars and fresh flowers.
The ideal hideaway for honeymooners and couples, the Garden Cottages offer guests the opportunity to enjoy the best aspects of Mount Nelson Hotel from the privacy of their very own luxurious home-away-from-home.
