Labotessa Luxury Boutique Hotel
City Bowl suites with a Presidential splash pool and Diptyque amenities
About this hotel
Seven suites total set the intimate scale here: six Signature Suites plus one Presidential Suite, each entered by direct elevator access and surrounded by the City Bowl's historical monuments and museums. Every suite carries air-conditioning, a private bathroom stocked with Diptyque Fragrance products, a Nespresso coffee machine and Smeg kettle, a flat-screen TV and a comfortable seating area with a yoga mat as standard. The Presidential Suite goes further, a double-storey penthouse with two lounge areas, two terraces, a fully equipped kitchen and dining area, three ensuite bedrooms and a private splash pool with city and mountain views. A Café & Terrace and Fragrance Boutique round out the ground floor, and the whole property sits in a prime City Bowl position surrounded by museums and monuments.
- Seven-suite luxury property
- Presidential Suite with splash pool
- City Bowl location
- Diptyque amenities and Nespresso machines
Our take
This suits travellers wanting a genuinely intimate, seven-suite luxury property in the City Bowl with fragrance-brand amenities rather than a larger hotel. The Presidential Suite's private splash pool suits a special-occasion group booking specifically. Anyone wanting a large shared pool complex should look toward a bigger resort instead. Couples wanting an intimate, seven-suite property with genuine fragrance-brand amenities over a larger hotel's anonymity will notice the difference immediately on arrival.
- Book the Presidential Suite for a small-group celebration, the private splash pool and three bedrooms suit it well
- Use the yoga mat provided in every suite for a morning session on the terrace
- Visit the ground-floor Fragrance Boutique before checkout, it pairs with the Diptyque amenities upstairs
Why we love it
- A Presidential Suite with a private splash pool
- Diptyque Fragrance amenities throughout
- Direct elevator access to every suite
- A ground-floor Fragrance Boutique
Why guests love itI would choose Labotessa Luxury Boutique Hotel for a small, high-end stay in Cape Town's City Bowl. It has only seven suites: six Signature Suites and a Presidential Suite with a private splash pool. Every suite has Diptyque fragrance amenities and a Nespresso machine. Cape Town International Airport is nineteen kilometres away. A 9.8 from 124 reviews at five stars is exceptional, and I would book early since so few suites exist.
