This casually chic Victorian-style hotel blends the best elements of personalised hospitality with a discreet haven for the discerning gay traveller. It is perfectly located near beaches, many superb restaurants and the many gay bars and clubs of Dar Waterkant are just 10-minutes away as is Clifton No3 beach.
This is the first gay hotel in Cape Town, and it is entirely gay owned, managed and staffed.
Each of the eleven guest rooms are individually-styled but all feature an en-suite bathroom with double shower, a private garden terrace or balcony and many have mountain or sea views.
A feature of the property is the spacious Moroccan-style steam room, Jacuzzi and relaxation area terrace surrounding the swimming pool. So you can well and truly unwind and relax during your stay at The Glen. All these facilities are exclusively for the use of hotel guests and their friends.
Rating and advising on hotels around the world is a tricky business as standards and facilities vary so widely not to mention issues such as décor style, service levels and location with particular relevance to gay amenities.
We don’t pretend that we have got this right but our Pink Triangles are our attempt to give a personal assessment to enable comparisons to be made between the various properties in an area which we feature. Couple this with price and our hotel descriptions and you should be able to make a reasonable assessment.
