Queen Victoria visited the Cape with her son Prince Alfred in 1870 when he opened the Breakwater basin, where today the Victoria & Alfred Hotel honours their names. Built in 1904 the Northquay Warehouse was converted into this charming hotel in 1990.

The hotel is close to the city’s main tourist attractions, business centre, cops, restaurants and entertainment venues which make it the perfect choice for both business and leisure travelers. The nearest airport to the hotel is Cape Town International Airport, which is located 20km from the hotel. The hotel provides guests with a comfortable stay in the best location for exploring what the city has to offer.
