He didn’t even offer a drink on the house. We left half our cake behind. Just come here for the view and a coffee. Or breakfast. They can’t get the breakfast wrong can… Read more

We had 4 fabulous nights at the 12 Apostles. What was most remarkable were the staff, particularly Destiny. We were always welcomed to the bar with a smile and our favorite cocktail. We will make it back to Cape Town and will definitely stay at the 12 Apostles.

From the moment we arrived we were made to feel special by all the staff. Alex -front of house manager and the lovely Gillian who gave us a tour of the hotel were so delightful and certainly made us feel special...thank you so much 😊 every member of staff after that were also so accommodating especially the head concierge Nardus, he went out of his way to help us and we are very grateful the hotel has such a wonderful team! We had a suite which was beautiful old fashioned charm but with all mod cons including a very sumptuous bathroom with the fluffiest towels ever! We used the spa and it was so relaxing I fell asleep- highly recommended. We loved the morning view for breakfast overlooking the ocean and also the leopard bar for a good old g&t pre dinner. All in all we would not hesitate to return to the twelve apostles as it greatly enhanced our trip to South Africa..... it’s on the calendar to book for next February 😎 Read less
