Cape Town, South Africa

Virgin rating

The hotel

Surrounded by lush vineyards and rolling hills, the Last Word Constantia provides a tranquil escape from the bustling city of Cape Town, whilst still being conveniently located close to the Mother City's top attractions. Just 30 minutes from Cape Town Airport and 20 minutes from the V&A Waterfront, it seems Constantia is the perfect place to base yourself for a city and Winelands holiday. Minutes from the hotel is the chic Constantia Mall’s fashionable shops and restaurants - including Peddlars on the Bend (a favourite with locals and holiday makers) so the foodie in you will love discovering the local celebrated restaurants. After a busy day of sightseeing unwind in your beautifully appointed room, take a dip in the sparkling swimming pool, or get lost in the pages of your new book in the manicured gardens... it's time to sit back and relax!

We stayed here for a couple of nights as part of our honeymoon and had a lovely time. The service was brilliant and they were very accommodating when we first arrived after a lot of traveling and were too early for check in. The breakfasts were great and the garden area was very pretty. We’d definitely stay here again.

We loved staying here. The breakfasts were something we looked forward to because items were so fresh and well prepared. The room was beautiful, clean and cozy. The carrot cake they made for making me feel special on my birthday was amazing! The staff are all very friendly and helpful. Your service warmed my family's heart. Thank you!

Great room, lovely staff, breakfast excellent! Really enjoyed our stay. We were recommended a brilliant driver who took us on several tours. Only thing would be that we were not told anything about room service or that we could have had a meal from the next door restaurant from our rooms- would have been good to know.
