Inspiring Artworks By Local Talent Brings Culture And Colour To Various Hotels In Cape Town

By:


Art has become a fundamental part of the hospitality industry, all over the globe. Art dcor forms part of the identity of the hotel, stimulates a creative atmosphere for guests and adds to the ambience in the hotels.

Cape Town features many hotels that support local art and artists. This includes the Strand Tower Hotel, the Fountains Hotel and Apartments (Leisure Hotels Group) and the Daddy Long Legs Art Hotel.

One hotel group in particular has taken an interest in bringing local artworks into their establishments. While providing sought after accommodation in Cape Town, the Leisure Hotels Group (which includes the Strand Tower and Fountains Hotels) has taken a keen interest in supporting the local art community.

The Strand Tower Hotel in Cape Town does boast the impressive art housed on its interior walls. You will catch a glimpse of a piece by a renowned local artist as you walk through the lobby, or sit down in one of the hotel lounges. The art is there to be admired and showcase local talent, and to compliment the hotel interiors. The hotels feature innovative designs, which stimulate the senses.
The Executive Lounge, located on the third floor of the Strand Tower Hotel, provides an exclusive setting for the more discerning traveler. The lounge features unique artworks by Cape Town artist, Richard Scott, giving the room a modern appeal - a perfect retreat for those who appreciate modern art. A new addition, which forms part of Scotts Beautiful Bougainvillea Series, has recently been added to the existing collection.

If youve been to the Cape Town CBD recently, then you are likely to have seen the curious sculpture situated on the edge of the second floor pool deck of the Strand Tower Hotel. This unique sculpture is called Thats me on the corner, and was designed especially for the hotel by renowned Cape Town artist Paul du Toit. The sculpture depicts a personal interpretation of the human form sitting on the side of the pool deck, overlooking the streets below. One of Du Toits paintings can also be seen at the Fountains Hotel.

We are thrilled to support local art and showcase the amazing work created by artists from across the Mother City," says Rosie Brooks, Online Content Manager for Leisure Hotels. "When guests (who come from all over the world) visit one of the hotels they truly appreciate the local art and culture showcased. Their reactions really prove that we have some world-class artists in our communities, says Brooks.

The unparalleled dcor of these hotels will give you a visual experience and inspire thought and feelings.
