Travellers' Choice
The Alphen property has opened its doors to something new and incredibly exciting. Rooted in the team’s vision of creating something that is both undeniably timeless and covered in luxury, The Alphen has taken on the challenge of breathing new life into the property, with a renovation wherein no element has been overlooked. The Kove Collection would like to introduce the new Alphen Boutique Hotel & Spa; a showpiece that exemplifies luxury in every sense of the word. Marrying the historical structures with the brand new, crisp interiors and adding a boutique spa, heated pool and a gym - the property has modernity and a minimal, gentle feel throughout. The rich colours of the gardens are perfectly juxtaposed against the clean and monochrome interior, providing the best of both worlds to both locals and internationals, modern design enthusiasts and anyone wanting to indulge in a bit of history. Essentially, we’ve taken the best from before, immersed it in something brand new, and will be delivering it with the same, five-star hospitality. Welcome to The Alphen.

Thanks to Hannelie and her team for a superb and authentic welcome. My partner booked a package for us to celebrate my birthday and the hotel really went the extra mile and made me feel very special. Shout out to Gareth who checked us in and knew our schedule (massage booking times, dinner reservation) off pat. The room was luxurious and comfortable, great wifi signal everywhere. Spacious bathroom and separate shower room, both with underfloor heating as well as heated towel rails. Room service was very prompt and the little birthday cake in the room was exquisite. Restaurant (Blanko) was probably the 'weakest link'. The food was tasty - I had prawns followed by herby chicken - with lashings of garlic. We were on the package deal which meant a limited menu, though we would have been happy to pay a supplement for some additional a la carte options. A cheese board for example, or a side salad. The delay in having our table ready could have been more elegantly handled with slightly more attentive service in the lounge. But overall a lovely experience in a beautiful environment. The service seemed better than the last time I stayed which was Feb '23.

This was our 1st visit to Cape Town and to The Alphen Hotel. From the second we arrived to the minute we left, all of the staff and the Hotel exceeded all of our expectations. The Hotel is beautiful and clean and offers excellent facilities from the pool, bar and restaurants. The rooms are just so beautiful. I would recommend this to everyone.

We loved our stay at the Alphen. The room was spacious and well stocked. The grounds were beautiful and near a wonderful walking trail. And, most importantly, the staff were all professional, courteous, and very friendly providing superior customer service.

This is a great hotel. It's absolutely gorgeous and the staff all went above and beyond. My room was beyond luxurious with a huge bed that was so comfortable I could not get up the next morning. They really think of everything to make your stay the best possible.

We stayed one night at the Alphen Hotel. The reception staff were great, friendly and efficient. The highlight was the big beautiful bedding with high end linen. We enjoyed a quiet night's sleep in a dark room. The location of the hotel is great and we felt safe the entire time. Great value for money and we will be back.

I have stayed here many times before and it just gets better and better. From arrival to departure, everything was impeccably managed by a super-efficient and friendly staff. I literally cannot think of one thing that could have been better!
