Rooms
The Last Word Constantia offers nine rooms and suites decorated in cream tones and rich fabrics. Each includes a LCD TV, iPod docking station, velour bathrobes, and 300-thread count cotton linen. Underfloor heating keeps the space warm. Some suites open directly onto the garden and pool, while the family suite features a separate playroom with a Wii console and board games.
Dining
Breakfast is served in a sunroom overlooking the garden, with hot and cold options including homemade cakes and fresh fruit. The hotel does not have its own restaurant, but Peddlars on the Bend is right next door and will deliver meals to your room or by the pool. An honesty bar in the lounge offers drinks and afternoon tea.
Leisure
The outdoor swimming pool is surrounded by landscaped gardens with sun loungers and umbrellas. Guests can borrow bicycles, join bike tours, walking tours, or themed dinner nights. Happy hour drinks are available daily. Nearby golf courses include Steenberg Golf Club. The pool area has towels, toys for children, and a shallow end.
Location
The hotel sits in Cape Town's oldest wine valley, close to seven top wine estates including Constantia Uitsig and Klein Constantia. It is a one-minute drive from Constantia Village Mall with shops and restaurants. Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden, Boulders Beach, and the Cape of Good Hope are within a 20-minute drive. The freeway provides direct access to Simonstown and False Bay beaches.
Services

“The gardens here are a true sanctuary, creating an immediate sense of calm that carries through to the exceptionally attentive staff. Suites are generously proportioned, opening directly onto peaceful pool areas, and the breakfast is consistently praised as a highlight. It strikes a fine balance between sophisticated comfort and an invitingly relaxed atmosphere.”
