Ritz Hotel Cape Town

Located just off Cape Town's Sea Point suburb's bustling busy main road, the Ritz Hotel is famed for the rotating views from the restaurant perched above it (and wider than the building). The Ritz is situated a short walk from the Sea Point promenade and the beach, and is close to Cape Town's V&A Waterfront.

Top of the Ritz Restaurant

Situated on the 22nd floor of the hotel, the Top of the Ritz is Cape Town's only revolving restaurant, and completes one rotation every hour and a half. The restaurant is especially worth a visit at the times straddling sunset.

Ritz Hotel in Sea Point Cape Town

Sean met up with his friend Carey at the Ritz for a Johnnie Walker party. After parking their mini in the "freaky" underground parking, they made their way up to the Top of the Ritz restaurant, which reminds Sean of a strip joint.
