The Cape’s first farm, established in 1682, has come a long way from its humble beginnings. Just 20 minutes from the bustling heart of central Cape Town, Steenberg Hotel feels miles away from the world. Steenberg offers an idyllic setting; a mere 20-minute drive from the center of Cape Town in the Western Cape, South Africa.
Steenberg Hotel rests in the Constantiaberg amphitheater of the Table Mountain range. The original farm werf resonates with the history of the Cape as it was the very first farm granted by Simon van der Stel, to the feisty Catharina Ras, in 1682.
The 5-Star Steenberg Hotel boasts 24 rooms encapsulating the dictum of understated luxury, offering spectacular views and discreet, personalized service. The Heritage Suites at the Steenberg are amongst the world’s finest. These hidden gems, known as The Cape Colonial, The Khoi Khoi and The Dutch East India pay tribute to three distinct periods in the Cape’s history through a contemporary interpretation of these landmark eras. Grounded in the rich heritage of the Estate, these luxurious suites celebrate the Steenberg’s status as a South African National Monument.
Offering luxurious accommodation and amenities, personalized service and understated elegance, the Heritage Suites consistently exceed expectations. Travelers can choose from award-winning cuisine with Catharina’s Restaurant offering fine contemporary dining and Bistro Sixteen82 serving-up popular bistro-style fare and tapas. A complete destination, the farm houses an exceptional winery, producing some of the finest Sauvignon Blanc in South Africa, along with several other celebrated varietals.
Graham Beck bought Steenberg Hotel and Steenberg Winery in April 2005. Steenberg Hotel has since flourished into a complete luxury destination, with two fine restaurants, an award-winning winery, a championship 18-hole golf course, illustrious private homes and a world-class spa set amongst the estate’s astounding natural landscape.
