Not only is THE PRESIDENT HOTEL a Mother City icon, it's also a hybrid HOSPITALITY and PUBLIC SPACE, where accommodation, social activity and cultural programming intersect.
-
WITH SHARED AREAS such as the lobby, circulation spaces and pool terrace, Cape Town's legendary President Hotel in Sea Point is designed to accommodate hotel guests as well as day visitors, encouraging extended use rather than transient movement.
Art forms a central layer of the interior experience. Along the second-floor corridors, the Cape Town Collection presents a curated selection of local artworks, effectively converting transitional spaces into a continuous gallery.
