Newkings Boutique Hotel
The newkings boutique hotel offers 41 spacious rooms. Set against the backdrop of Lions Head, and with breath-taking views of the Atlantic Ocean, the four-star hotel is situated in the cosmopolitan area of Sea Point. With the award-winning Sea Point Promenade, and Saunders Rock and Queen’s Beaches close by, the glamorous beach lifestyle for which Cape Town is famous is accentuated. The stunning views and a selection of restaurants and shops on its doorstep make it hard to find a better location in the heart of Sea Point. The newkings hotel offers uncapped Wi-Fi, complimentary parking, a 24-hour concierge and security service, room service, a turn-down service, and a tea and coffee station, fridge, microwave, gowns, safes, and TVs in the rooms. The staff has been described by guests as professional and friendly, the rooms as spotless, and the location good with supermarkets and beauty services in the same building.
In partnership with newkings, owner and operator Chef Pavel Dimitrov’s sea facing Zest Restaurant is in the hotel, and is open seven days a week, serving meals to hotel guests and local Capetonians. Its wood-fired Grill is the highlight of its kitchen, the Kameeldoring wood giving a wood-smoked aroma to the meat, fish, and vegetables prepared on it. Chef Pavel believes that Fresh is best, and that Less is More. Zest offers Breakfasts, Lunch, Dinner, Room Service, Oysters, Cocktails, and fine wines and bubbly daily. Its Summer Tasting Menu is available from Mondays - Thursdays. In a separate venue Zest caters for special events, family celebrations, and business meetings, seating up to 40 delegates and guests.
