It’s been a long, dreary winter in Cape Town but the tide will turn in the next few weeks. Soon, grey skies will make way for bright blue ones and rainy days will be long forgotten when the sun beats down in all its splendour.
The best place to spend a holiday in Cape Town this summer is no doubt the Premier Hotel. With a perfect location in Sea Point (right across the famous Promenade), you’ll be spoilt for choice between ocean and mountain views.

And if you’re not so lucky as to go on holiday but have a work trip planned instead, the sleek conference rooms and facilities won’t disappoint, either.
The rooms are elegant and spacious, equipped with coffee stations and fridges as well as small details like hair dryers and safes. The room service at this 4-star is a welcome luxury, but if you want to make the most of the glorious weather in summer, the restaurant with seating on the deck overlooking the ocean is a definite must.
Whatever you do, don’t miss out on the sunset come evening as you’ll struggle to find a better vantage point in the area. The Premier Hotel is a great base for city explorers with the V&A Waterfront, a host of restaurants and the Cape Town CBD within easy reach.
The area is fabulous for those wanting a pure water-based vacation too. Just down the road from the hotel, you can do kayaking, snorkelling or lounge on the beach at Camps Bay or Clifton.
