Cresta Grande, the place where everything tickles your fancy
Cresta Hotels opened its first property in South Africa in March 2021. What better destination to choose? It had to be Cape Town! Cresta Grande Cape Town Hotel opened its doors mid Pandemic, with a small team of incredible hospitality professionals and wow, what a time that was! Excitement was abuzz, but also the uncertainty of what lay ahead. After all, the world had just come out of lockdown.
There was simply no better time to bring back excitement, to reignite appreciation for the beautiful city and to welcome the world back to Cape Town.
Our Cresta Grande Cape Town Hotel has a total number of 242 rooms across 19 stories. We have 6 conferencing facilities for corporate and other special events. The Restaurant offers a unique a la carte menu and serves a full buffet breakfast daily. Buffet options are also available for groups at lunch and dinner where required. Our poolside bar overlooks the metropolitan centre of Cape Town’s CBD. The hotel provides 24/7 on-site security and transportation services for guests which can be booked with our concierge desk. For our gym lovers, there is an on-site gym which is easily accessible.
If you’ve never been, here’s five reasons why you should visit Cape Town and why Cresta Grande should be the hotel of your choice.
- Location, location, location.
Our modern 19 story building is located in the heart of South Africa’s most beautiful and trendy business hub. Picture the hustle and bustle of New York City streets, Cape Town has it all. Our iconic Adderley Street flower market has been in operation for over 150 years and is just a short walk from Cresta Grande Cape Town Hotel. Our colourful Bo-Kaap community invites you to experience the rich history of Cape Malay Culture. Table Mountain can be seen in all its magnificence from our hotel bedroom windows and you have the pleasure of being able to ride the cable car all the way to the top. Even more convenient, you can be transported via the Hop-on-Hop-Off City Sightseeing Red Bus, which offers a pickup point only 240m from our hotel’s front door. The Victoria and Alfred Waterfront is a mere 5-minute cab drive away, boasting one of the few publicly accessible working harbours in the world. Furthermore, enjoy both local and international retail stores, world class cuisine, a majestic art museum and a breathtaking Aquarium. Visiting for an international congress? You’re in luck! The Cape Town International Convention Centre is an 800m walk from our location. We can go on for days but by now you get the picture.
- Climate.
Everyone enjoys a good holiday. For some it may be lazing at the beach and soaking up the sun. For others, it may be a fireplace accompanied by a good book. Whether you’re visiting our beautiful beaches in the Summer, or taking to the Winelands in Winter, the ocean remains close, and the rolling vineyards remain lush and green. Take it all in, any time of year. You’re guaranteed to love every minute.
- Take a road trip.
One week is never enough in our gorgeous city. After you’ve embraced the city life, take a day tour to Cape
Point where the Atlantic and Indian Oceans meet. Visit the Penguin Colony at Boulder’s Beach and indulge in the freshest Fish and Chips at the nearby restaurants. Fill your pic gallery with the most exquisite photographs of our beautiful scenery and we guarantee you will be the envy of all your friends back home. Prefer something a bit more laid back? Cape Town has you covered. Book a Winelands Tour. With options as close as 20 minutes out of the city, experience award winning vineyards and arrange to ship some South African wine home. With picturesque seaside towns less than 2 hours from the main hub, you can truly go home with special memories never to be forgotten. Our Hotel has a concierge desk team to help make access to the wide range of activities, easy for our guests.
- Enjoy the food.
Our Hotel offers a unique a la carte menu with quality food made by chefs of the highest standard. In conjunction with this, Cape Town boasts an endless abundance of delectable restaurants with Master Chefs right on our doorstep. Enjoy a true South African Steak, freshly caught seafood, a hearty Cape Malay curry or some seriously roadhouse style grub, when you indulge in the famous Gatsby. Mouthwatering right?
- The People.
Last, but certainly not least, enjoy the beautiful rainbow nation. When we refer to South African Hospitality, we refer to abundance, generosity, warmth, and home. At Cresta Grande, you can expect nothing less than quality guest service and True African Hospitality.
