The Building originates from the early settlers, when they built the "Green Point Farm" in the mid 1800. In it's decades to come, it was home to the Harbour Master and the Danish Embassy in early 1900...We are very proud that we were able to start & open a new and exciting chapter in this historic property...
I have been in Hospitality as long as I can remember. After High school, I took my first step into the Hotel business by joining the renowned Intercontinental Group in Germany, before working in Sales & Marketing with the Marriott Group and studying international Hotel & Tourism Management. The years to follow took me to the USA/New Orleans, Germany and the Netherlands, where I worked with Hilton Hotels, Leading Hotels and many more. After a couple more Executive positions with Sofitel and Radisson Blue, I came to the most amazing place in the southern hemisphere, Cape Town! Eventually, I wanted to get back to the roots of true Hospitality and decided to open my own, small Boutique Lodge. It's nice to be able to get to know the guests personally and try to create for them a home away from home.
You can safely walk to the V&A Waterfront, De Waterkant, the Stadium, Long Street or the Sea Point promenade. My favourite Restaurants are Beluga Restaurant in Green Point, Carne SA, 95 Keerom or the Harbour House at the Waterfront. For a lazy day and some chilled Cocktails, you may want to go to The Grand Beach...
