Situated on the bustling Victoria & Albert Waterfront, the Queen Victoria is the fifth property in Cape Town from Newmark Hotels. The signature shade of deep purple has been employed throughout - amongst the widely used greys and taupes - to provide a touch of regal eccentricity as an ode to the historic figure after whom the hotel is named.
