Cape Milner's rooms get new look

The rooms have a spacious feel which has been achieved by using a neutral palette with a play on texture and vibrant accents. The warm texture of the timber floors and paneling are contrasted with the white duco units, mirror panels and white bed linen. Taupe tones provide the perfect backdrop for the creative artwork of South African photographer Kyle Mijlos, taken during his travels throughout Africa. Silk cushions and chenille throws provide a splash of colour to the rooms.

Interior designer Beth Murray has been involved with refurbishments at the hotel for almost a decade, ensuring that the property's style keeps continuity as it evolves. "The Cape Milner's style hasn't changed a great deal, but the revamp of our rooms have made it more current," says Murray.
