Hotels in City of Cape Town, South Africa

Cape Town is a coastal city in South Africa, famous for Table Mountain and its 13,000-year-old rock paintings at the Cape of Good Hope. Its Mediterranean climate means dry, warm summers (around 75°F or 24°C) perfect for hiking up Table Mountain or surfing at Muizenberg Beach, and rainy winters (around 55°F or 13°C) ideal for exploring the Bo-Kaap's colorful 18th-century Cape Dutch houses and tasting bunny chow in the city center. You can visit Robben Island's prison where Nelson Mandela was held, or take a ferry to the V&A Waterfront for live jazz at The Green Dolphin in summer, while winter brings cheaper rates at hostels in Observatory.
