Last week we featured Hout Bay as destination of the day and many people have asked us where we recommend staying in Hout Bay – so today we will feature Chapmans Peak Hotel as our Hout Bay hotel of the day!
What’s more the winner of the SAFM competition from Sally’s radio interview on Hout Bay last week(winner announced on SAFM this coming Wednesday so listen up if you entered) has won 2 nights for 2 people B&B at Chapmans Peak Hotel AND a Duiker Island cruise for 2 people with Drumbeat Charters to see the Cape Fur Seals.
Chapmans Peak Hotel dates back to the late 19th century so it has a LONG history of accommodating guests. Its conveniently located 20 minutes from Cape Town city centre and the waterfront, 45 minutes drive from the airport, 30 minutes to Cape Point and sits at the gateway to the Cape Point Route in Hout Bay at the foot of Chapman’s Peak Drive.
Chapmans Peak Hotel recently had a massive makeover and they now have 24 contemporary modern rooms in addition to the original 10 rooms in the historical building. The new rooms are either sea facing or mountain facing and there are 2 glorious penthouse suites – with open plan bathroom, lounge with fireplace and a private outdoor terrace which is private outdoor plunge pool! To die for especially if you on a romantic getaway!!

Restaurant:
We highly recommend stopping at the restaurant for Chapman’s Peak Hotel’s world famous calamari – though we can also recommend the Portuguese Steaks! It’s a fabulous spot for sundowners, nothing can beat the vibe of sitting on the “Chappies” verandah, sipping a glass of ice cold wine, tucking into mounds of delicious grilled calamari! Its especially great on warm summer evenings! But in winter they have a glowing fireplace to keep things hot! The Chapmans Peak Hotel Restaurant also serves super-fresh linefish – so a fish and chips meal at Chappies is another must!
