Take in the amazing views of Table Mountain from one of two balconies at this apartment. The views from inside are breathtaking, too. The apartment is housed in a Victorian building once home to Sir William Hoy. We love that when the South African nights turn chilly, there's a log burner to cosy up in front of. If you need to work from home, you'll be glad to know there's also a study here. Location-wise, you'll be just a short stroll from Kloof Street, where you'll find an array of restaurants, cafes and bars.
