Steenberg Hotel

Steenberg Hotel is on the Steenberg Estate on Tokai Road in Constantia, Cape Town, South Africa, in the southern suburbs at the foot of the Constantia Berg. Steenberg is among the oldest wine estates in the Cape, with origins in the late 17th century, and the hotel sits within vineyards and landscaped grounds with mountain views. The estate is about 25 minutes' drive from the city centre and is close to Tokai Forest, the Constantia wine route and the beaches of False Bay on the other side of the peninsula. Cape Dutch buildings and a country-estate character define the setting, with the historic manor-house heritage visible in the architecture. Rooms are offered as Luxury Rooms, Suites and Villas, with rates roughly R5,000 to R14,000 per night. Listed amenities include wifi, a restaurant and bar, a swimming pool, a spa, a fitness centre, a concierge, room service and a wine estate. Dining centres on the estate's restaurants, which have a reputation for refined, produce-led cooking and for pairing food with Steenberg wines, and a golf course and cellar tastings are part of the estate experience. The spa and pool give the hotel a resort feel within the vineyards. Service is polished and discreet, and the concierge can arrange wine tastings, golf, peninsula tours and transfers. It suits couples, honeymooners and leisure travellers who value a wine-estate setting and tranquillity over city-centre convenience, and it is particularly attractive to visitors combining wine-tasting with a peninsula stay.
