Cape Royale Hotel
The City Improvement District of Green Point would like to commend the Cape Royale for their eco friendly and social responsibilities efforts.
As a new establishment in the Green Point vicinity, the Cape Royale has played a role in enriching the aesthetic appeal of the area – with its opulent style and grandeur – and setting an example with its exemplary green efforts.
The Cape Royale was designed around the concept of natural light and free flowing air. The building was constructed with suspended walkways allowing natural light and air to move freely through all eleven floors of the hotel. Motion sensors have also been fitted to each floor of the hotel, in so doing minimising the unnecessary use of lights.
Concentrating on conserving water as well as electricity, guests are urged – by means of cards featuring water saving tips – to pay attention to Africa’s ongoing water shortage problem.
From a social responsibility perspective, the Cape Royale Hotel is part of the Housing Trust’s Brick Foundation which helps build simple, affordable houses in poverty stricken areas like Mfuleni township outside of Cape Town. Cardboard “bricks” placed in the hotel’s rooms enable guests to donate money to the Brick Foundation charity, and in doing so affords guests the opportunity to do their bit for the social upliftment of South Africa.
The Cape Royal has also opted to support businesses in the local community by purchasing bath and body products from Charlotte Rhys, as well as buying Khayelitsha Rusks made by the previously unemployed women of this informal settlement.
