Cape Town Facts & Tips

Cape Town is the oldest city in South Africa

Cape Town is the oldest city in South Africa. It was first mentioned by the famous explorer Bartolomeu Dias in the late 15th century. After Jan van Riebeeck and his crew for the Dutch East India Company established the first European settlement in South Africa, the town became an important European outpost and trading post for the Dutch East India Company. Although the area was inhabited for thousands of years prior to the arrival of the Europeans, there is no recorded history of local activities of the Khoi and their predecessors.

Jane Goodall Institute Chimpanzee Eden Jane Goodall Institute Chimpanzee Eden Jane Goodall Institute Chimpanzee Eden

Welcome to Chimp Eden Boutique Hotel!

The Boutique Hotel offers 4 star accommodation. Each of our exclusively decorated 13 en suite rooms have been individually designed to reflect its own African heritage, with first world comforts. Comfortable double rooms and spacious twin rooms, under one thatched roof creating cool, elegant comfort in colonial style. The unique African ambiance is reflected throughout the lodge. Buffet breakfast and candlelit dinners are served in the restaurant or on the deck overlooking the reserve.

The Chimpanzee Haven:
The Chimpanzee (Pan Troglodytes) is the closest relative to humans. In recent years the ?bush-meat? trade has grown exponentially as the great wild forests of Africa have become more accessible to humans, largely due to logging which is destroying primate habitats by opening large sections of forest with dirt roads. It is estimated that Chimpanzees will be extinct within their natural habitats in as little time as 10 years. Therefore the Jane Goodall Institute is committed to conserving the primates and has created multiple sanctuaries in Africa.

The goal of the Haven is to rescue some of the Chimpanzees that have survived the hunting ordeal but are still misplaced through the lucrative illegal pet trade to zoos, circus performers and medical research facilities. Besides being provided with a home to live out their lives they are also provided with the necessary attention to recover from the trauma that they have experienced

Restaurant, bar and the ?Plato? Deck:
The Executive Chef and the attentive personal service caters for the discerning Patron either with four course Ala carte menus, or with ?Never ending? selections of traditional and international Buffet Menus. An exclusive selection of fine Tea and coffees, with home made cakes and pastries, can be experienced on ?The Plato Deck?. Positioned above the Haven forest, it provides a breathtaking view of the surrounding mountain ranges and Chimpanzee enclosures. This offers a once in a life time experience for individual travelers to enjoy the perfect African sunset or sunrise.
