This top class hotel, situated in the heart of Cape Town, was built in the late 19th century. It is loved by locals and tourists alike. The Nellie, as it is called by most of the people in Cape Town, is the perfect fusion of modern facility and tradition. It reflects the city's history and at the same time displays luxury and extravagance.

Afternoon teas are popular at the Nellie. They serve different teas and scrumptious finger foods from cakes, truffles, sandwiches, scones and other savory treats, all made from scratch in the hotel's kitchen.
