“As multicultural as its multi-coloured streets, you’ll find the meaning of ‘Rainbow Nation’ in the Bo-Kaap. Known for its vibrant blend of cultures, Cape Town’s most photographed area is a fascinating melting pot of Malaysian, African, Indian and Sri Lankan influence. Its brightly painted houses, quaint cobbled streets, and South Africa’s oldest mosque make it an unforgettable visit.<\/p>\n

Rouge on Rose Boutique Hotel
—————————–<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Rouge on Rose Boutique Hotel<\/a> is considered the place to stay in the Bo Kaap. The mother and son team behind this fabulous 4-star hotel offer luxury accommodation with a generous helping of personality, insider’s knowledge and charm. Ask them anything from how to get the most elusive dinner reservation and where to pick up a pair of handmade leather shoes, to where to go for quality craft beers and a good boogie and how to find the best surf for the day.<\/p>\n

Dutch Manor Antique Hotel<\/strong>
——————————<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

South Africa’s only registered antique hotel, Dutch Manor<\/a>‘s owners have lovingly be restored its former opulent elegance. It’s a gorgeous, intimate stay, with only six meticulously decorated rooms, furnished with antique furniture. Step out the front door into in the colourful streets of the Bo-Kaap and its shops, restaurants and cafes. Just a couple of streets away in the quarter’s oldest building is the Bo-Kaap museum, and closer still, the Gallery MOMO is well worth a visit.<\/p>\n

Signal Hill Lodge<\/strong>
———————–<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

On the slopes of the nature reserve after which it’s named, Signal Hill Lodge<\/a> has incredible views of the city bowl and harbour. Appearing quite unassuming from the outside, the owners have taken inspiration from its colourful location, giving the comfortable interior a vibrancy that really lifts the spirits and reflects the Bo-Kaap. Pick a room with a private balcony, or sit in the lush garden, and you’ll get that elusive holiday balance of excitement and relaxation.<\/p>\n

Upperbloem<\/strong>
—————-<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

If you fancy eating out or trying your own recipes from fresh, local food, Upperbloem<\/a>‘s newly renovated self-catering apartments make a great choice. Hidden away in the winding slopes of the Bo-Kaap, you’ll have your pick of Malay cuisine – aromatic stews and curries, sosaties (kebabs), pickled vegetables, as well as a host of spicy pastries and boeber, a sweet sago. Try Biesmiellah for high-quality Cape Malay cuisine made from fresh local meat and fish dishes seasoned with a range of spices.<\/p>\n

Molo Lolo Lodge<\/strong>
——————–<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This gorgeous hotel is on the edge of the Bo-Kaap, just across from the hip Waterkant district and the restaurants of Bree Street. The interior is fabulous, but the best thing about the Molo Lolo Lodge<\/a> is its superb roof terrace with a 360\u00c2\u00ac\u00e2\u02c6\u017e view across the Bo-Kaap to Signal Hill and beyond the city to Table Mountain. The super-helpful staff are there to help you discover the area’s hidden gems, and relax afterwards. Fairness, Friendliness and sustainability is at the heart of this hotel’s ethos.<\/p>\n
