Monday, 28 November 2022 – SunSquare Cape Town Gardens is a ‘SunPet’ friendly hotel in what is a first for the Southern Sun group.

The hotel’s General Manager, Richard Keet and his team are ready to welcome furry, four-legged guests as a new addition to their arrivals this holiday season. “We understand that for many people, their pets are part of their family, so travelling without them is unthinkable,” he says. “The location and facilities at SunSquare Cape Town Gardens lend themselves to welcoming pets, so the decision to convert it to a pet-friendly hotel has been quite natural and involved a simple refurbishment.”

Based on their proximity to the foyer and gardens, several rooms in the hotel were selected for the pet-friendly conversion. These were refurbished and fitted with hygienic vinyl flooring to provide both comfort and practicality for guests and their pets, to ensure a relaxed and enjoyable stay.

The conversion also included attention being given to the dining experience. “SunPets are invited to join their families on the terrace for breakfast, lunch or dinner (and everything in between) at our trendy Zepi restaurant,” says Keet.  Pet meals can be ordered from the SunPet Gourmet Menu, which offers a range of nutritious and delicious individually packaged dishes made with real ingredients.

Operations Director for Southern Sun’s Western Cape region, Samantha Clingham says, “The SunSquare Cape Town Gardens team has done a great job of opening to the pet-friendly market, and we are excited to welcome a new profile of guest to what could soon become the most popular pet-friendly destination in Cape Town.”

SunPet friendly rooms are available at an additional surcharge of R250 per room per night, with a once off R500 non-refundable payment per stay. SunPets receive a welcome treat on arrival, pet bedding for the ultimate SunPet sleep experience, and access to a selection of bowls, mats, toys and other conveniences during their stay.

Tsogo Sun's New Square on the block

There’s a new square on the block in the Mother City. SunSquare Cape Town has officially opened and is bringing a contemporary new accommodation experience to Cape Town. This hotel fits within Tsogo Sun’s portfolio of over 90 hotels and 14 casino and entertainment destinations in South Africa.

Tsogo Sun CEO, Marcel von Aulock, comments: “When reviewing the property’s recent R35 million refurbishment, we saw the SunSquare brand as an ideal fit for the hotel’s contemporary style, ambience and location in the city’s tourism hub. The decision was thus taken to rebrand the De Waal property”.

SunSquare Cape Town is set to add another dimension of urban cool to the cosmopolitan City Bowl area. Its trendy style and modern features will appeal to those looking to stay somewhere that embraces the individual and welcomes the unique. It is a place to feel connected while meeting, mingling, listening to music inspired from soulful lounges across the globe, or simply taking in the magnificent sights and sounds of the city.

The hotel has 136 contemporary-styled fully refurbished rooms and a spacious lobby extending into a stylish bar area and terrace where guests and locals can unwind while taking in the views of the beautiful pool area and landscaped garden. The selection of conference rooms is ideal for hosting intimate meetings or large functions, with seating for up to 120 people.

SunSquare Cape Town also has a brand new restaurant, Zepi, which offers an exciting and authentic dining experience for local Capetonians and hotel guests alike. The innovative menu focuses on fresh seasonal ingredient with a rotating menu of starters, mains and desserts along with signature dishes like the Bazaruto chicken, prego rolls and pizzas.

“Whether guests are staying over, taking in the ambience and views on the terrace or having a meal at Zepi, we’re set to deliver unique experiences for all”, says SunSquare Cape Town General Manager, Richard Keet.
