The Capital Mbombela , the brand new R205 million hotel in the heart of Mbombela , recently opened its doors to guests . It offers a choice of hotel rooms , apartments and a penthouse for business or leisure travel as well as cutting-edge conferencing facilities and a range of leisure and entertainment options .
The new hotel is ± 7,000m 2 and is prominently situated at the entry of Mbombela , off the N4 highway on the corner of Penny Gum and Graniet Roads . The location of the site was chosen due to its high visibility and relationship to the nearby Ilanga Mall .
The development comprises 100 hotel rooms and 50 apartment style rooms , 1 penthouse , a 120-seater state-of-the-art conference venue , meeting rooms and a restaurant area . This project is the first significant newly built hotel in the area since development by the city leading up to the 2010 FIFA World Cup .
“ We identified a need for a sophisticated , luxury destination in Mbombela to meet the needs of local businesspeople , business travellers , leisure seekers , and the local community ,” explains Marc Wachsberger , Managing Director of The Capital Hotels and Apartments . “ We have designed and built this hotel with a focus on modern and open design , providing Mbombela and surrounds with the perfect environment to mix and mingle in style , after deals have been negotiated and closed .”
The hotel ’ s cleverly designed configuration means that guests can choose an apartment or even the penthouse , benefiting from the luxury of sophisticated hotel living , and the convenience of top-end home amenities such as a well- appointed kitchen , dining area , and comfortable lounge .
