Hôtel Le Vendôme Welcomes You The Challenge… International businessman, Maurice Danon’s vision was unique. To create a luxury boutique hotel in Africa with the finest attention to detail, marrying French Old World charm, elegance and comfort with renowned South African hospitality. From this ideal, the Hôtel Le Vendôme was born, scarcely three years ago - on Cape Town’s Atlantic Seaboard, and has been accepted into the exclusive fold of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World. The perfect location… Only 25 minutes away from Cape Town’s International Airport and situated in the cosmopolitan suburb of Sea Point, Hôtel Le Vendôme is close to the vibrant V&A Waterfront and majestic Table Mountain, and a mere fifty metres from the ocean promenade. From this central and luxurious base, the renowned Wine-lands and Cape Peninsula, with its pristine beaches and indigenous flora and fauna, wait to be discovered. Discreet service… Each of the 143 classically furnished rooms and suites (smoking or non-smoking), is equipped with television on-screen messaging, international business information and an Internet and Email connection. A direct facsimile line ensures confidentiality of communications. Additional features include handy built-in international adapters, modem points, a room safe, a full refreshment center, satellite TV and 24-hour responsive yet discreet service. A tranquil oasis… Hôtel Le Vendôme’s sparkling poolside offers guests an oasis of tranquility where an outdoor breakfast, light refreshing lunch or sunset cocktail may be enjoyed “al fresco”. Chefs at Le Cygne, the hotel’s casually elegant restaurant overlooking the pool, have perfected “lazy” Sunday buffet lunches. Culinary seduction… Le Cygne’s menu changes weekly but always includes two roasts, a vegetarian alternative and a fish of the day. Starters include salads of grilled Mediterranean vegetables, pasta, home-smoked salmon, mouthwatering mezze and an array of freshly baked breads. The desserts – a selection of novel sweet treats, including the classic French Croquenbouche and an assortment of gateaux such as Frasier, St. Honoré and Operas, will tempt even the most assiduous of “calorie counters”. The final seduction includes fresh fruit with spiced yoghurt, cream and a selection of cheeses. For further culinary indulgence, Hôtel Le Vendôme’s fine dining restaurant, Rive Gauche, conjures up exceptional meals, complemented with superb international and local wines, and served in equally tasteful surroundings. The lavish art of High Tea… For a royal treat, afternoon High Tea has been turned into a lavish art form at Le Salon Chantilly, Hôtel Le Vendôme’s classic lounge. Fresh pastries, dainty cakes, delicate salmon, chicken or cucumber finger sandwiches and other irresistible delicacies are served with an impressive selection of assorted teas and coffees. After the sun has set, Le Salon Chantilly becomes the ideal milieu for a pre-dinner aperitif or a connoisseur cognac and cigar. Business in style… Le Salon Concorde is Hôtel Le Vendôme’s modular, multi-purpose, state-of-the-art conference and banqueting center, comprising three interconnecting rooms which combine into one grand space that accommodates up to 220 guests. A state-of-the-art 384 Kbps Global Videoconferencing facility includes three cameras per room, plus three ISDN lines, a scan converter, document camera and producer podium. Activating and controlling the lighting, audio-visual and multimedia equipment is simplicity itself with the use of a remote LCD touch-screen console. The hotel’s Business Centre offers guests the further convenience of full secretarial services and there is a choice of two opulently appointed boardrooms for private corporate use. Luxurious detail – our hallmark of excellence Whether the occasion is an intimate dinner for two or an international conference for two hundred, Hôtel Le Vendôme will ensure the closest luxurious attention to detail. In the words of Maurice Danon: “Hôtel Le Vendôme is a very personal place. The attention to those small but important things is much sought after but seldom found in the world. It has to be, for my guests want tranquility and exclusive privacy in utmost excellence.” PROPERTY PROFILE Le Vendôme is Cape Town’s discrete boutique hotel preference. It was opened in December 1998 and has been acclaimed as the hotel that has brought the essence of Europe back to the Mother City.
