Dear Friends

February is all about romance. Whether you’re a hopeless romantic or a hopeful singleton, let a little lovin’ (and perhaps a glass of festive fizz) go to your head, with the Mount Nelson Hotel’s exciting line-up this month…


SPREAD THE LOVE

Valentines Day is on the way and we just couldn’t resist indulging our romantic sensibilities.


Sweet Indulgence
Afternoon Tea gets the romantic treatment with all the decadent treats we’re famous for (from mouth-watering chocolate creations to melt-in-the-mouth cheesecake, mounds of fresh fruit, sophisticated sandwiches, assorted cheeses and wicked confectionery), a glass of Pierre Jourdan Belle Rose and, for the ladies, a rose on arrival. Classic love songs complete the sensory feast.
From 14h30 to 17h30 * R175 per person

Cosmic Attraction

For the perfect prelude to a night of romance head to Planet Champagne and Cocktail Bar. An enticing selection of Valentine’s cocktails sets the scene for seduction...
Open from 17h00 until late.


In the Pink

The poolside setting of Oasis Restaurant is the last word in laid-back alfresco dining. Think rose petals, candles, complimentary Pierre Jourdan Belle Rose on arrival, roses for the ladies and the sultry sounds of the B3 Jazz Duo, and a delectable three-course buffet dinner.
From 18h30 * R275 per person

Tasty Tryst

For all-out romance, celebrate in style with a seriously sexy five course feast at Cape Colony Restaurant.

Complementing the divine flavours is live entertainment by the Mike Perry Jazz Trio, a glass of Pierre Jourdan Belle Rose, a rose (for the ladies) on arrival, and the chance to win an exquisite diamond sponsored by Shimansky Collection, designers and manufacturers of exclusive platinum and diamond jewellery.
From 19h00 * R325 per person.  
BUBBLY BLISS

We can’t get enough of the excellent Cap Classique brands we’re showcasing in our series of four intimate Sparkling Suppers.  Held in our elegant Lord Nelson room, each food and wine-pairing evening is hosted by the winemaker of the sponsoring estate, and promises to be as enlightening as it is indulgent.  R350 per person gets you pre-drinks and canapés at Planet Champagne Bar, a superb three-course dinner and plenty of fizz throughout the evening.  

The 2008 Sparkling Supper line-up includes:

Thursday 28 February: Krone  *  Thursday 27 March: Simonsig 
Tuesday 29 April: Graham Beck  *  Thursday 22 May: Pierre Jourdan
