Welcoming LGBTI+ Travellers - The new Alphen Hotel & Spa

THE NEW ALPHEN BOUTIQUE HOTEL & SPA

The Kove Collection would like to introduce the new Alphen Boutique Hotel & Spa; a showpiece that exemplifies luxury in every sense of the word. The perfect place for LGBTI travellers to explore the Cape or simply relax and unwind in unadulterated opulence ...

The Alphen property has opened its doors to something new and incredibly exciting. Rooted in Paul Kovensky’s vision of creating something that is both undeniably timeless and covered in luxury, the team has taken on the wonderful challenge of breathing new life into the property, with a renovation and makeover where no element has been overlooked.

Marrying the historical structures with the brand new, crisp interiors and adding a boutique spa, heated pool and a gym - the property has modernity and a minimal, gentle feel throughout. The rich colours of the gardens are perfectly juxtaposed against the clean and monochrome interior, providing the best of both worlds to both locals and internationals, modern design enthusiasts and anyone wanting to indulge in a bit of history.

Essentially, we’ve taken the best from before, immersed it in something brand new, and will be delivering it with the same, five-star hospitality.

The Alphen Boutique Hotel & Spa is essentially our take on timeless.

THE SPA:

Our new boutique spa has been developed and curated with the ultimate self-care in mind. Spearheaded by highly trained therapists and lauded skincare products, this has become a getaway for wellness and recharge. The beautiful lawns and heated pool, a fully-equipped gym and varied menu options complete the wellness side of this Alphen sanctuary.

THE POOL:

Our heated, 15m pool is now open to both guests and visitors. While away a summer’s day on one of our daybeds, with a curated cocktail and snack menu from Incognito. The rolling lawns make for the perfect family area – there truly is something for everyone here.

THE ROOMS:

This boutique hotel boasts eighteen suites, adorned with French panelling and marble, soft linen and fully equipped bathrooms. The Dower House and Mill Range, as they’ve been fondly called for so many years have both Classic, Superior and Deluxe suites. This truly is modern luxury at its finest.

Constantia is South Africa’s oldest wine region and is located around 25 minutes from all major attractions of Cape Town. The Alphen location is the best of both worlds – with nature at your doorstep and the city buzz or coastal experience just a short drive away.

THE RESTAURANTS:

Our much-loved la Belle remains Constantia’s favourite brunch spot, while the lovely Blanko has had its menu turned on its head. Moving away from formal, the Blanko menu is now more casual and comfortable, in line with the wonderful Constantia energy. Opening since the 15th October, Blanko looks forward to welcoming you. Finish the day at Incognito, overlooking the beautiful rolling lawns of the property with a cocktail in hand while DJs whisk you into the evening.

You won’t want to leave, nor will you have to.
