For over a century, the 5-star Santa Catalina, a Royal Hideaway Hotel has been a witness to the history of the island of Gran Canaria, famous for its beautiful beaches, volcanic landscape and rich culture. Since its opening in 1890, the hotel has been a landmark of Gran Canaria's social and cultural life, hosting some of the most prominent figures of the 20th and 21st centuries, such as Maria Callas, Gregory Peck or Ava Gardner.
Reopened in 2019 by Barceló Hotel Group after a thorough refurbishment, the oldest hotel in the archipelago keeps a large part of the capital's tourist history among its walls. With a privileged location in the illustrious neighbourhood of Ciudad Jardín, set inside the lush Doramas Park and close to Playa de las Canteras, each corner of its interior oozes inspiration. In addition to its original British style, there are works of art, murals and canvases dating back to the 19th century. The elegant and welcoming décor and design of its rooms can only be eclipsed by the beauty of its surroundings on the shores of the Atlantic.

The hotel is positioned in vibrant and trendy Green Point, within easy walking distance of many of the great attractions of Cape Town; the fashionable V&A Waterfront, the historical Bo-Kaap, the chic Cape Quarter, the famous Cape Town Stadium and the Central Business District.

The Tree House Boutique Hotel is nestled amongst lush trees and enjoys the most amazing panoramic views leading to its fitting name. It is immediately obvious that there is no mainstream design here. In creating this unique space, emphasis was placed on fashioning a new distinct destination, one which forms part of an exceptional hotel guest experience whilst also showcasing local creativity and colour. Often understated and minimal, there is some remarkable design inspiration which reconnects with nature and harnesses its pure magic.
