$$$$ | 2 Nicol St., Cape Town, South Africa Fodor's Choice

If you're looking for more independence from your accommodation, staying at this collection of well-appointed apartments (the sister establishment to the Cape Cadogan) is a bit like being part of a tucked-away village. Located in various historic homes (all given a contemporary make-over), the property has its own dedicated reception and lounge area, and daily servicing of your quarters. The spacious apartments (and 1 very snazzy 4-bedroom house with everything you could dream of including a chauffeur and butler) have Smeg appliances in full kitchens and private outdoor courtyards, and there's someone available 27/4 to assist you. 

Pros

  • Quirky, upbeat interior design and top-notch applicance and finishes in all apartments
  • The location affords a genuine sense of living like a local
  • It's a hotel in terms of service but not a hotel in terms of the independence it affords

Cons

  • While you get heaps of atmosphere, there are no views to speak of
  • Some may miss that old-school hotel vibe that includes the buzz of fellow travelers
  • You might be tempted to stay in and end up regretting to go out and explore
