Exploring the bustling streets of Century City

Posted by Taylah Strauss on 15 March 2022

Century City is ideally situated along the N1, a 15-minute drive from the heart of the Cape Town metropolis. With office, residential, retail, and leisure opportunities all meshed into one, Century City is a one-size-fits-all destination. Visitors will find interesting landscapes, extensive waterways, and a wide variety of cuisines.

A tranquil stay

The brand new Bridgewater Hotel – overlooking a six-hectare parkland of islands and waterways – has 80 stylish rooms designed to be the perfect tranquil retreat. Rooms come with a queen-sized bed, a desk, a spacious shower, air conditioning and blackout curtains.

Bridgewater also has convenient hi-tech features to ensure you’re always connected, making it a good choice for those in town for business too. This includes fast uncapped Wi-Fi, wireless charging ports, a 42-inch smart TV with 19 channels, as well as Netflix and Youtube, and a backup power generator.

Eat your heart out

If you don’t want to venture too far out of your comfort zone, Gusto Urban Italian Restaurant is located conveniently on Bridgewater Hotel’s ground floor.

The restaurant has both a contemporary and urban feel, with a relaxed but sophisticated ambience. With wood-fired pizza and several other traditional dishes, and drinks that flow as freely as the conversation, you’re guaranteed a good time.

If you’re not in the mood for Italian, there are several options just a stone’s throw away, such as Tiger’s Milk, Bootlegger’s Coffee Company, and La Parada.

Get your heart racing

If you enjoy relaxing but need a little bit of adventure from time to time to get you going, there are plenty of activities available right at your doorstep.

You can go hiking, jogging or cycling in Ratanga Park and Intaka Island, or you can explore the extensive waterways and the Grand Canal via canoe or stand-up paddling.

Bridgewater Hotel has two special offers available. If you book 21 days in advance, you get 15% off! Similarly, if you book a minimum of four days, you get 15% off. Both offers include breakfast.
