Lonely Planet review

Offering a distinctly personal big-city experience, this stylish boutique hotel places an emphasis on service and keeps a galaxy of stars, honeymooners and well-heeled business travellers coming back for more.

The building itself is something of a modern-day monstrosity, a hulking hodgepodge of neo-classicism and facebrick minimalism. Once inside, there is a similar sense of ungainliness, as though the 75 rooms have been squeezed into an improbably small space. The Grace has achieved a reputation as a world-class hotel and it's easy to see why: staff are remarkably personable and efficient and the vibe surprisingly laidback. Rooms tend toward the florid (heavy pelmets, plush carpets, old-fashioned biological sketches), but overall the effect is strangely meditative. Contemporary South African art hangs on the corridors and tours of the works are given on request. Outdoor highlights include the Italianate (heated) pool, terrace and roof garden.
