City Centre

The beating heart of Cape Town — culture, cuisine, and creativity on every corner.

About City Centre

Cape Town's City Centre is a dynamic mix of heritage architecture and contemporary culture, where historic buildings sit alongside modern galleries and innovative restaurants. Bree Street has emerged as the city's culinary epicenter, packed with award-winning restaurants, wine bars, and artisan food shops. Kloof Street offers eclectic boutiques and vibrant street life, while Long Street remains the beating heart of the city's nightlife. The area is home to the peaceful Company's Garden — Cape Town's oldest garden — and the bustling Greenmarket Square with its daily craft market. The CBD is well-connected by public transport and is the gateway to Table Mountain, the Bo-Kaap, and the V&A Waterfront.
