Colourful village is a unique European influenced village of semi-detached quaint cottages and cobbled streets preserved from the 1760Žs. Cradled between the city and the Waterfront, this Village is an avant-garde, cultural urban refuge highlighted by the abundance of restaurants, art galleries, gay clubs, salsa clubs, tapas bars and Parisian inspired caféŽs. Facilities include secure parking, pool, The Charles Café, guest bar, Internet and function facilities.

The hotel is tucked between Table Mountain, the CBD and the V&A Waterfront. Most cottages, guest houses and apartments in this hotel boast views from Asian inspired roof top terraces, that sweep all the way down to the Waterfront and across to Table Mountain. The mixed Georgian, Cape Dutch and Asian colourful architecture, cobbled streets and historical standing is what makes De Waterkant Village so unique. The hotel is often described as being arty, charismatic and quaint and is a truly special place decorated with gorgeous al fresco restaurants, sidewalk café's, boutiques and bars and is often compared with Greenwich Village.
