Looking for the perfect 5-star experience on your next business trip? The Pepperclub Hotel is the perfect location as we are experts at making your business trip feel like a holiday!

In celebration of Youth Day, we proudly hosted a group of young men for lunch and a movie. Our staff did us proud and contributed on a personal level and undertook to donate warm clothes, shoes and blankets to assist with the cold winter we are having.

Recently we undertook a total refurb of our existing conference facilities. We gave our facilities a new and more modern look and a higher level of comfort and class for our conference guests.
 

With so many upgrades and changes, we decided a new culinary artist was needed to lift the standard of our cuisine.

Tucked away on the 8th floor of the Pepperclub Hotel, Cayenne Spa is an urban wellness sanctuary in the heart of Cape Town. Guests are able to enjoy breath-taking views of Table Mountain and take advantage of an intimate swimming pool and spacious sauna, before retreating to the calm of one of four treatment rooms.

Sweeping someone special off their feet needn’t be limited to the month of February. If you’re looking for the perfect destination to woo the one you love, Cape Town definitely has you covered – with its vast natural beauty and abundance of unique experiences and adventures, you’ll be spoiled for choice. We’ve handpicked a few options that are sure to get that special someone starry-eyed:

With Valentine’s Day almost upon us, now is the best time to start planning the most romantic day for that special someone in your life. Whether you are looking for fresh ideas on how to spend the day, or you are in search of a full-day itinerary that will leave your loved one breathless – we have put together a full day of ideas for how to spend Valentine’s Day in the Mother City this year

Having recently enjoyed a renaissance world-wide, artisanal gin is the latest trend to hit the craft scene in Cape Town. This white spirit, which is flavoured by juniper berries, is a perfect fit with South African flora as it serves as a blank canvas for local distillers to infuse their own handcrafted blend of traditional South African flavours from indigenous fynbos and other botanicals.

Spring is in the air! Flowers are in bloom, trees are boasting fresh green leaves and the arrival of summer is imminent. Even though the winter blues are nearly out of sight, your skin and mood may need a final push to embrace that summer feeling.

An ever-growing foodie heaven, Cape Town is fast earning itself a name for top class fine dining and delectable cuisine. In recent years, the city has blossomed into a culinary destination, with a number of highly acclaimed restaurants opening their doors all around the city and surrounding areas.

We’ve put together a list of some of the best fine dining restaurants and eateries in and around Cape Town to inspire you as to where to wine and dine in the Mother City

As South Africa’s second largest and most cosmopolitan city, Cape Town offers its fortunate visitors a seemingly unlimited array of sights and activities. Full of natural beauty and far-stretching urban landscapes, many would say it is impossible to capture every aspect of the city and its surrounding areas during a short, three-day stay.

Whether it’s a flat white, latte, or espresso that tickles your fancy, coffee culture has taken the world by storm and Cape Town is no exception. Playing host to what is arguably some of the best coffee roasters globally, the city is the playground for talented artisanal roasters and baristas who whip up a taste sensation in a cup

With a vast array of restaurants within the city centre, deciding where to eat can be challenging – but in a good way! Whether you have a yearning for something local or unusual or perhaps a taste of home, the Mother City is host to a variety of dining cuisines. While there are many traditional cuisine restaurants, such as local burger joints, pizza parlours, French themed dining spots and sushi bars, to leave you spoiled for choice, exploring some of the more interesting cuisine styles is a different alternative – and recommended!

Holiday festivities needn’t wait until the end of the year to be celebrated. The popular Christmas in July wine tasting evening returns to Pepperclub Hotel & Spa on Thursday 21 July 2016 – with the perfect accompaniment of Diemersfontein Wine Estate’s Coffee-Chocolate Pinotage.

A common question asked by visitors travelling to South Africa – the southernmost tip of Africa – is about what type of weather to expect during the winter season, and whether a visit during this period is enjoyable. The answer is yes – not only is the weather pleasant, but specials offered during this period enable travellers to explore the country for significantly less.

For many first-time visitors to South Africa’s iconic Mother City, budgeting can be challenging if you are unfamiliar with pricing and what to expect. This planning can be made even trickier with a fluctuating foreign currency and exchange rate.

Traveling from afar and not sure how far Cape Town’s attractions are from our hotel? We’ve put it in a universal term everyone understands – taxi fares!

One of Pepperclub Hotel & Spa’s greatest assets is its location! We are located in the heart of Cape Town’s inner city district – a place that has, especially in recent years, come alive with various activities and interesting personalities.
