Southern Sun The Cullinan is a hotel in central Cape Town with almost 400 modern rooms of varying sizes and layouts. The building features a heated outdoor pool, two dining venues, a bar, a fitness center, and conference spaces suitable for business events.
The hotel opened in the 1990s and underwent major renovations and upgrades between 2011 and 2013. It is part of the Tsogo Sun group, a large hotel company operating throughout South Africa and the region.
The hotel sits in a neighborhood that has transformed over recent decades into a lively, cosmopolitan area. The surroundings reflect Cape Town's modern character, with constant foot traffic and a blend of local and global influences visible in the nearby shops and restaurants.
The hotel provides underground parking and offers airport shuttle service on request. Check-in is available after 2 PM and check-out is before 11 AM, while children under 18 stay free when sharing a room with adults.
A large sculpture behind the reception desk depicts the famous Cullinan diamond, the largest diamond ever found and the source of the hotel's name. Rooms on upper floors offer spectacular views of Table Mountain, the waterfront, and sometimes the stadium during major sporting events.
