The Winchester Hotel is a highly recommended Sea Point hotel providing accommodation in 80 guest rooms for anyone visiting the Atlantic Seaboard region.

About The Winchester Hotel

Impossible to miss, The Winchester Hotel stands out with bold appeal on the edge of the ever-vibrant Sea Point Promenade. The splendour of this 1920s Cape Dutch-style icon is rivaled only by the views of Table Mountain and the Atlantic Ocean that frame the establishment.

Bask in the property’s prime location and renowned amenities, from its grand courtyard to its popular sea-facing terrace and restaurants.

Accommodation

In a world class destination such as Cape Town with so much to see and do, it is rather unlikely that you will be spending lots of time in your room. Nevertheless we make sure that even if you do decide to stay in, you are able to unwind in style and comfort.

The Winchester comprises seventy-six luxuriously appointed rooms offering a variety of accommodation options to suit your needs. Our rooms are spacious and elegant and all of them have either sea or mountain views - just to ensure that you never forget where you are.

Children of all ages are welcome at the Winchester Mansions. A large variety of amenities and services are available to ensure a delightful stay for little guests.

Dining

The Winchester Hotel’s unique food and beverage experience takes on an iconic status of its own. Open to hotel guests and visitors alike, the restaurant and bar offer far more than a stunning setting — they provide patrons with top-class culinary offerings.

Shoreditch offers a contemporary and diverse menu, free from the constraints of any particular culinary style but uniquely defined by the chef’s primary method of cooking: on flames. With immense passion and skill, the culinary team focuses on embracing the variety of wonderful flavours that come through when preparing dishes with fire.

A favourite spot among locals, Harvey’s Bar serves a selection of creatively curated beverages as well as enticing menu items, which can be enjoyed while gazing out over the promenade and Atlantic ocean.

THE SPA

Indulge in our complimentary herbal teas while immersing in our serene lounge adorned with lush decor and ambient lighting. Our seasoned therapists employ premium products, ensuring exceptional results that will leave you feeling revitalized and renewed. Embark on a journey to discover the essence of tranquility at our exclusive spa sanctuary.

Activities and Attractions

Summer or Winter, Cape Town's mornings are special, particularly if you are lucky to be close by the sea. Join the locals for a stroll along the promenade and come back for a delicious South African breakfast with a Cappuccino Italian style.

A large outdoor pool awaits you for a few laps of swimming or if you are feeling lazy: lean back in the deck chairs with your book and favourite cocktail. Our Ginkgo Spa invites you to relax and recapture the forgotten sense of wellbeing.

Ready to explore what Cape Town has to offer? The Winchester Mansions is located within close proximity of the V&A Waterfront, the city centre, Table Mountain and Cape Town's beaches. Golf courses, wine tasting, horse riding, or sailing - our team is happy to help with the organisation of your travel plans and day trips.

Great Location, close to everything but also far enough away to be chilled. Breakfast was delicious, the staff were friendly and the facilities were fantastic.
