About

Welcome to 12 Hofmeyr, your door to Cape Town!

In 12 Hofmeyr we have tried to capture in a guesthouse what you have said you desire and appreciate when you travel: comfort and intimacy, modern amenities, local design, a great neighbourhood in a central location and a curated experience. Our Victorian house has just undergone a major renovation and in doing so we have tried to conserve as many of the old existing Victorian features as possible, while throwing in a huge dose of funk, design and local flavour. The result is an unusual blend of old and new, of both form and function. We believe that 12 Hofmeyr offers you the opportunity to stay in Cape Town as a Capetonian and to have a unique local experience.

12 Hofmeyr is located in a quiet, leafy street making it hard to believe that you are in the centre of the city. The house offers a unique sense of privacy while situated steps away from the heart of the city. A two-minute walk takes you to Kloof Street, vibrant neighbourhood extraordinaire.  It is filled with restaurants, coffee shops, galleries and design stores and is the perfect starting point from which to explore all the city has to offer. We would love to help you think about your trip to Cape Town and provide tailored recommendations and concierge services for all your needs.

With 4 en-suite rooms, we cater to groups both large and small. When not in your room you can:
• Relax in the lounge
• Enjoy a tea or a glass of wine in the leafy courtyard
• Admire the fantastic views over Table Mountain and the harbour from the jacuzzi on the roof
• Make use of our concierge to organise anything from a massage to a meal cooked in our kitchen by a private chef

Included in our standard rate is:
• Unlimited filtered still and sparkling water on tap
• A daily yoga class at YogaZone in town

Available on order is:
• Nespresso coffee
• Breakfast

Who would love 12 Hofmeyr?
We think 12 Hofmeyr appeals to many different kinds of people. Ideal for an individual travelling alone and seeking a personalised and central location from which to explore the city. A couple seeking privacy and a relaxing getaway would love our White Room with its private terrace and leafy view. With easy access to the jacuzzi, a romantic escape is guaranteed. A family or group of friends travelling together can benefit from renting the whole space and having a home in central Cape Town from which to launch their holiday. A customised service is available to make your stay easy and enjoyable and meet your exact needs. In Cape Town for a while and want a comfortable home to return to? The house can also be rented for longer stays if a hotel doesn’t appeal.
