The Latitude 0° kitchens create gastronomic delights that fuse together flavours from all corners of the world and offer an alluring array of wines curated from some of the most wellknown estates in South Africa and Europe. But their gourmet offering isn’t just about the food; it’s also

The experience is everything about where and how you decide to dine, with their main restaurant, The Other Side club, or even the rooftop cocktail bar being some of the options. Inside or outside?

Latitude Hotels believe that the success of each offering requires a strong local flavour with a contemporary feel - which means building solid local partnerships, emphasising local art and the expertise of the local pool of labour available.
