The Mount Nelson Hotel: The Fabulous Pink Lady Mount Nelson Hotel Review

Nestled at the foot of Table mountain this hotel is a well established piece of heaven. The style of the hotel is very colonial & you are greeted at the gate by a man wering a pith.

I did not stay at this hotel as it is VERY EXPENSIVE a double room costing from $585 low season to $900 stretching to $1,350 - $2,135 for their top rooms. Although saying this one can always find more reasonable deals on the internet. Sumptious luxuary such as this does come at a price.

Do book for an afternoon tea at the Mt Nelson which has been voted as "best tea in the world" by Michael Winner. I have written a tip for this treat under restuarants, excellent value beating the Ritz hands down.

Unique Qualities: Everything is here - pool, tennis courts, great view, stunning gardens
