The Cape Milner is a mid-range accommodation in Tamboerskloof, Cape Town, at 2 Milner Road, Tamboerskloof, Cape Town 8001. Rooms run roughly R1,800-R3,800 per night (about $109-$230).
The Cape Milner is at 2 Milner Road in Tamboerskloof, Cape Town, South Africa, a leafy residential suburb on the slopes of Table Mountain and Lion's Head, just above the city centre. The hotel is close to Kloof Street, one of the city's most popular streets for restaurants, cafes and boutiques, and is within a few minutes' drive of the city centre, the V&A Waterfront and the lower cable car station for Table Mountain. The setting is quiet and residential, with views of the mountain, and the property has the character of a small boutique guesthouse-style hotel in a restored house, with comfortable, understated interiors rather than large public spaces. Rooms are offered as Standard Rooms and Luxury Rooms, with rates roughly R1,800 to R3,800 per night. Listed amenities include wifi, breakfast included, parking and air conditioning. Dining is centred on the breakfast included in the rate, while Kloof Street's restaurants and bars are within walking distance for lunch and dinner. The hotel does not have a full-service spa or large resort facilities, and its appeal lies in value, location and a personal, home-like atmosphere. Service is friendly and informal, with staff able to offer local tips on restaurants, hikes and sightseeing. It suits couples, independent travellers and visitors who prefer a quiet residential base near the city's best dining street to a larger hotel, and it is also convenient for hikers heading up Lion's Head or Table Mountain.
