Amina Boutique Hotel, a beautifully restored property (over 120 years old) in the Bo-Kaap offers a truly enchanting stay.
The building has a rich history and has been lovingly transformed into a haven for both locals and travellers seeking a memorable and personalised experience.
The story of Amina Boutique Hotel began over three years ago when the owners, who have a deep affection for the Bo-Kaap area, first discovered the house.
Despite their immediate fascination with the property, it wasn’t feasible for them to fulfil their dream of owning it at the time. However, fate intervened in mid-2022 when they rediscovered the home, and this time it became theirs.
Recognising the incredible potential that the space held, the owners embarked on an extensive restoration journey. Their vision, combined with careful research and creative re-imagination, has resulted in the stunning transformation of the hotel.
Today, Amina Boutique Hotel graces the Cape Town skyline with its striking blue hues, standing as a testament to the charm and character of this historic gem.
