The Charles

Perfectly positioned in the very heart of De Waterkant Village, The Charles is a private, intimate and original guesthouse.

From the roof decks of The Charles, guests can enjoy beautiful city views, especially late afternoons when the city lights up and the evenings come alive. Positioned opposite the gorgeous al fresco styled Cape Quarter piazza and the flamboyant crowd at Manhattan?s Restaurant and bar, The Charles can be described as being ?The Spirit of the Village? in a town that surely is ?The fun Capital of Cape Town.?
