“What strikes me is the historical Cape Dutch manor vibe, set amid gardens that feel like a real escape, yet it's so central, near the N2 for getting around Cape Town. The Wild Fig's room service, with lamb shank and cheesecake, sounds ideal after a busy day; all considered, it's a well-situated choice for both work and leisure.”
