One&Only Cape Town Unveils its Newly Refurbished Signature Suites

With a residential feel, the reimagined interiors of One&Only Cape Town’s signature suites have been boldly designed with sustainability and conservation in mind.

Located atop One&Only Cape Town’s famous Marina Rise, the newly refurbished Table Mountain and Presidential Signature Suites embody luxury living in the heart of the city.

The urban resort is building on its sustainability efforts to work alongside these newly designed spaces and overarching the reimagined resort. In 2023, as part of One&Only Cape Town’s projects for the year, the resort will embark on new conservation partnerships with Two Oceans Aquarium and Endangered Wildlife Trust. The resort has pledged a portion of the nightly revenue throughout 2023 to the organisations, with Table Mountain Suite’s contribution to the Endangered Wildlife Trust and Presidential Suite’s contribution to the Two Oceans Aquarium being to the Rand value of $300 USD and $350 USD per stay respectively.

The Table Mountain Suite

With breathtaking views of Cape Town’s famous landmark, the Table Mountain Suite puts nature and the mountain at the forefront of its luxurious design. Nuances of natural tones are dotted through out the suite, from the open-plan lounge and entertainment area to the free-flowing dining and bar areas. The modern, earthy-palette is echoed in the design of the kitchen which has a discreet butler’s entrance and scullery. The master bedroom is filled with natural light and elegance throughout.

A seemingly inconsequential design element of the Table Mountain Suite’s lounge area is a table held by a replica of Table Mountain’s Ghost Frog. On the mountain itself, this 6cm frog is an essential focus of the Threatened Amphibian Programme, created and run by the Endangered Wildlife Trust. The EWT is the only South African NGO focusing full-time on frog conservation, locked in a battle to protect a range of amphibians from habitat loss, pollution, contamination, and climate change.

The Presidential Suite

A few doors down and adorned with every conceivable luxury, the Presidential Suite features two bedrooms with gorgeous views of Table Mountain. The aesthetic and symbolic meaning of The Great African Sea Forest can be seen throughout the suite, with cool, blue tones complementing the original works of art and photography from South Africa’s most prominent artists. The striking floor-to-ceiling central fireplace, with Blue River Onyx stone and a contrasting polished and leathered finish, bring the open-plan lounge and dining area together.

With this signature suite swimming in a design inspired by Cape Town’s oceans, the partnership between One&Only Cape Town and Two Oceans Aquarium Foundation and their Turtle Conservation Centre couldn’t be more exciting. Created in 2009, this organisation has rescued, rehabilitated and released over 800 turtles – pivotal efforts here on South African shores. One of the biggest threats to these creatures is plastic, with over 71% of turtle hatchlings rescued found to have consumed it. And with One&Only Cape Town being plastic-free, this could not be a more noteworthy partnership.
