The Last Word Constantia

We stayed here for 5 nights chilling at the end of a month away. It was fantastic! Our suite was amazing, the bathroom huge & fab, literally everything you could want, including the hotels own labelled wine in the suite which was really nice. Each suite opens onto the gorgeous & peaceful pool area, so the opportunity to chill is right there. The staff are fantastic & can’t do enough for you, the breakfast is the best I think we have ever had, & Tiffany the cat will keep you company. The parking is secure, access is easy, & there are restaurants within easy reach, with one directly next door & a side gate from the hotel straight in to it. Staying here was exactly what we wanted & needed at the end of our trip, so thanks everyone, we loved our stay.

From the moment you walk through the door you know this is a special place. Luxurious, sophisticated and spotless- Kim, Gray, Beauty and the team turn a memorable holiday into a unforgettable experience 9 spacious rooms with excellent breakfast Lovely pool and exquisite gardens

Well, we expected great things and our experience was even better. From the moment you step into the resort you are treated like royalty. The staff are absolutely first class, the accommodation and pool is fantastic and the breakfast is totally fabulous. Wonderful touches like complimentary local wines make this a “must stay”. 11/10. Wonderful 5 days of luxury.

The hotel is located in the upmarket suburb of Constantia some way from the centre of Cape Town. We were advised against walking round the area and without a car, it can feel rather isolated. The hotel is a beautiful – the décor in the public areas and our room was bright and welcoming. I didn’t want to move from the comfortable sofas in the lounge area! The pool area and gardens are simply stunning. We had a pool suite which was large and well-appointed with everything you would expect from a boutique hotel. Unfortunately the air-conditioning unit was above the bed and despite adjusting the angle of the vents and speed, we felt as if we were sleeping in draught and slept with the windows open instead. Our private terrace was rather drab and the pool water murky compared to the main area by the swimming pool and gardens so we preferred to spend our time there. If I stayed again, I wouldn’t choose a pool suite. Breakfasts are huge with a wide choice of cold and hot food. The hotel doesn’t have its own restaurant but is adjacent to Peddlars on the Bend Restaurant, a popular local restaurant and bar. We ate there each night and the service and food was good. They will deliver their food to the hotel but we liked the buzz of the restaurant. Just a word of caution, we had mild tummy trouble as did a couple of other guests. I mentioned this to friends who come from Cape Town and they said, whenever they head back they use bottled water to clean their teeth, wash fruit, and avoid salads. We’ll know next time! The staff were really friendly and the service provided by the hotel is superb – tea and drinks by the pool or in our room were no problem. A special thank you to Kim who welcomed us on our early arrival and showed us to showers so we could freshen up after a long flight before arranging transport to the Kirstenbosch Garden. After we had checked out I discovered I had lost some jewellery. Luckily a member of staff had found it, handed it in and Kim arranged for it to be couriered back to me in the UK. I was so impressed by this and the hotel in general, that we have booked to stay at their sister hotel in Long Beach at the end of the year!

My wife and I took up a later offer on *********** of a two day stay at the Last Word, which is really a lovely nine bedroomed Hotel in Constantia. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The room which was a suite was really lovely and the breakfast was exceptional. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly and really could not have done more for us. If we are ever in the area again, we will make sure to come back.

What a spectacularly spacious luxurious room with views over the gardens - this is our second stay to this hotel and the welcome was as warm as ever and the quality of everything was spot on. Such a lovely quiet location with access to a lively restaurant and bar next door. The breakfasts are out of this world and set you up for any wine tasting! The team of lovely people couldn’t do more for us. This is a truly wonderful experience if you want the best of the best on your trip in the Cape.
