Boutique Hotels

Start Planning

We use boutique hotels sparingly. So, when we do recommend one, you can be sure it’s pretty darn special. With their prime locations, gorgeous interiors and impressive wine cellars, we’ve cherry-picked the very best boutique stays this side of the Zambezi. From the quirky to the sublime, there’s something for everyone.

Sleep soundly between flights in the safe, leafy surrounds of northern Joburg. Snaffle an extra éclair from the high-tea table in the gardens of Cape Town’s iconic Mount Nelson. Embrace your inner rock star as you gaze out over the Atlantic. Or step back in time and twirl around an Edwardian dancefloor as Victoria Falls thunders in the distance.

Sure, we’ll argue about which hotel is best until the proverbial wildebeest come home. With such great choice, it’s impossible to decide.
