Ellerman House is a hotel in Bantry Bay, Cape Town, set on the slopes of Lion’s Head with Atlantic Ocean views and easy reach of the city’s west side anchors, including V&A Waterfront, Camps Bay, and Table Mountain. The setting feels quietly elevated, with a garden outlook that frames the house as a place to return to after a day in the city. Inside, individually decorated rooms bring classic furnishings, and some units open to a balcony or terrace. In room comforts include satellite TV, a safe, tea and coffee making facilities, air conditioning, and toiletries, so the stay feels settled from the moment you arrive. Free WiFi is available throughout.
At Ellerman House, the shared spaces give the property an unhurried rhythm. Start the day with breakfast at the restaurant, then move between the outdoor pool, spa, sauna, steam room, and fitness center as your plans allow. There is also a bar for a glass of wine, plus a wine cellar and an art gallery that add character to the house without overstatement. If you are arriving by air, a complimentary shuttle is available, and parking is on site. Laundry service, guest services, and security features support longer stays and simple check in and out where available.
The surrounding area keeps you close to Cape Town while still feeling tucked away on the city’s upper edge. From here, practical access matters as much as the view, whether you are heading to dinner, exploring along the waterfront, or setting out for a drive to nearby landmarks. Ellerman House suits travelers who want a composed stay with space, calm, and a strong sense of place.
