Signature Lux Hotel Foreshore opens

The Signature Lux Hotel by ONOMO has added another prestigious landmark to the Cape Town landscape with the opening of the Signature Lux Hotel Foreshore.

The group has expanded its portfolio, as this is the second Cape Town hotel it owns and manages. The Signature Lux Hotel Waterfront and the Signature Lux Hotel Sandton in Johannesburg are also a testament to their growing success.

The Signature Lux Hotel Waterfront and Signature Lux Hotel Sandton in Johannesburg have become established in the skyline of these two cities, and the Signature Lux Foreshore is set to do the same. The Signature Lux Hotel by ONOMO is the first of a new generation of hotels in South Africa based on minimalistic travel. ONOMO Hotel Group, which prides itself on its state-of-the-art security and connectivity, is present in business capitals such as Casablanca, Douala, Dakar, Abidjan, Libreville, Bamako, Lomé, Cape Town, Johannesburg, Durban, Conakry, Kigali and Rabat. The hotels’ luxury elements demonstrate the quality and attention to detail that has been applied in the development of the product. All Signature Lux Hotels by ONOMO are situated at the best addresses in the cities in which they operate.

Signature Lux Hotel Foreshore is conveniently located on Heerengracht Street in the Cape Town city centre and on the MyCiTi bus route. It also offers guests a complimentary, daily shuttle service to and from the airport and the V&A Waterfront.

Signature Lux Hotel Foreshore was a labour of love, and another project successfully completed by Richland Properties. The building, which was previously home to a beauty school, has been lovingly restored in both an innovative and eco-friendly manner. Local materials were used to minimise the carbon footprint and environmentallyfriendly systems are in place.

Co-owner and developer of Richland Properties Paul Kelley said the Signature Lux Hotel Foreshore has a winning formula.

“The initial concept was to create a product which is of a four or five-star environment and feel, but that is also economically viable for guests.”

He added: “In Cape Town, if you want to be close to the V&A Waterfront or the Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC) it’s going to cost you a lot of money; thousands of Rands.”

He continued: “It’s become almost standard practice for Cape Town hoteliers to hike the price of their hotel rooms in peak season and when there’s a popular event at the CTICC adding to the burden of anyone looking for a premium hotel.”

Signature Lux Hotel Foreshore is within walking distance from the CTICC and Cape Town CBD.
