This is truly a magical 10 star experience. Service, food, amenities, furnishings, atmosphere are all of the highest level. When you walk in the staff welcome you with a “Welcome Home” and it truly feels like you are part of a very caring family when staying there. Worth every cent!!

I've always heard about High Tea at the Mount Nelson and yesterday I was lucky enough to have the full five star experience. I cannot recommend it enough. It more than surpassed my expectations. The service from Thuli was outstanding. The food and the presentation thereof was spectacular and delicious. Do yourself a favour and for your next celebration make it a high tea!

What a wonderful hotel. We spent our first three nights in South Africa and liked it so much we came back for our last night before we flew home. It was a fabulous place to arrive feeling tired after an overnight flight, it was far too early to get into our room so we treated to breakfast on the verandah of the Oasis breakfast and lunch restaurant. The breakfast buffet is outstanding - everything you could wish for. The pool area was lovely and never to crowded, our room beautiful and what made our stay so special was the outstanding service and attention to detail from every member of staff we interacted with. We particularly commend Azola (? Not sure if I have spelt that right) who dealt with our massive load of baggage and car, Zane who was very efficient and charming when serving us lunch on our last day and Wellington in guest experiences.

My sister and I had a beautiful experience at the Mt Nelson High Tea, with Cheslyn as our super-star waitress! She was so attentive, had a great sense of humour and truly elevated our experience! The food was sensational, and the versatility and range offered unmatched.

We were at Mount Nelson for high tea. The food on offer was excellent. What we liked best was the friendliness of the staff, from the moment we got out of the taxi until we said goodbye. We would particularly like to mention Cheslyn, who looked after us wonderfully. Dear Cheslyn, thank you very much. We would love to come back.

Popped in for the afternoon tea & first of all, the hotel & grounds are stunning. Serene, beautiful, & makes you not want to leave. The attention to detail, from the decor, artwork, down to the beautiful washrooms is well thought out. The highlight of the high tea for me was the desserts & the service. The tea sommelier and my server of the day Andiswa were great. Would definitely come back.
