The History of the Mount Nelson Hotel is intertwined with the early History of the Cape. The estate on which the Hotel is built was named: 'The Garden of van Oudtshoorn'. It was granted to a Dutch Baron, Pieter van Oudtshoorn van Rheede way back in 1741 by the then Governor of the Cape. The piece of land adjoins the Company Gardens albeit separated by a road these days.
