Why guests love itHikers in their sixties chose the Vineyard Hotel as a base for walks on Table Mountain, and the rooftop terrace became their reward at the end of each day. They carried tea up in the late afternoon and traced the next morning's route on the mountain they could see from their seats, with the gardens below. Swims in the outdoor pool loosened tired legs. The terrace is quiet and green-framed, a poor fit for anyone wanting a buzzing bar.
