Cape Grace Hotel

A Fairmont Managed Hotel — Victoria & Alfred Waterfront, Cape Town

A private waterfront sanctuary where Cape Town’s harbour, mountains, culture and cuisine come together through exceptional service, timeless elegance and authentic South African hospitality.

Standing on its own private quay in the heart of the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront, Cape Grace is one of Cape Town’s most beloved luxury hotels — surrounded by the movement of yachts, the sounds of the working harbour and the silhouette of Table Mountain. From the moment guests arrive, it feels less like a hotel and more like a beautifully appointed private residence.

Where It Sits

Where One&Only Cape Town offers international resort scale, The Silo represents architecture and art, Ellerman House delivers residential exclusivity and Mount Nelson celebrates grand historic hospitality — Cape Grace represents the refined soul of the Cape. Its strength is intimacy, location and authenticity: a hotel where guests feel like welcomed friends rather than visitors.
