About The Capital House

Capital House Boutique Hotel, The Waterkloof Mansion is an exclusive five star hotel in the center of the diplomatic residential area of Pretoria. The property is adjacent to the homes of the Ambassador of the United States, and the British High Commissioner.

Taking a morning walk around our hotel is a treat, as we are surrounded by stunning views and the most spectacular mansions in our safe enclave. Capital House has hosted presidents, foreign ministers, generals and numerous diplomatic guests. We are very well acquainted with all aspects of high level security.

We are the closest hotel to the Pretoria Country Club, home of the fabulous Blu Saffron restaurant. We are within walking distance to many of this capital city’s most exclusive restaurants and shopping, as well as a small but excellent art gallery.

Capital House serves a traditional English breakfast as well as light continental breakfast. We bake bread every morning on the premises. We can adjust to all tastes and dietary restrictions. Lunch and dinner can be easily arranged by request.

We do exclusive meals, wine tastings and small conferences as well as very elegant weddings.
