The new 22-storey hotel tower will take up an entire block at the corners of Long and Pepper streets in the city’s most popular central café society district. According to Gatsby director, Brandon Lourens, it will be first downtown boutique hotel with luxury apartments aimed at the upper-end international and domestic market.
Accommodation will comprise 76 de-luxe suites, 56 superior de-luxe suites, 38 grand one-bedroom suites and 14 grand two-bedroom suites.
There will be five venues accommodating 20 to 120 people for conferences, incentives, weddings and executive meetings.
A small shopping mall on the ground floor will have coffee shops, gourmet restaurants and other shops.
Other facilities will include a concierge service, a fitness centre, a pool and sun deck with views of the city and Table Mountain, a private movie theatre, a wellness spa and secure under-cover parking. Pepper Club’s guest courtesy fleet will include a Rolls Royce Phantom. Developers, Solomon Brothers Property Holdings, promise luxury and modern finishes of a standard “not previously seen in Cape Town”.
