Location. The Sir Francis is located in Cape Town, South Africa, within 500 metres of the flea market and one kilometre from both Rocklands beach and the city centre.
Hotel Features. The Sir Francis is a self catering hotel perched on the slopes of Signal Hill overlooking the waterfront. A good example of sensitively refurbished modernist architecture, it offers an outdoor pool, wireless Internet access and a grocery service. Other amenities include airport transport (surcharge), currency exchange, laundry and dry cleaning services and complimentary, secure parking.
Guests wake up to a complimentary breakfast each morning served in the breakfast room overlooking the pool.

Guestrooms. There are 28 self catering rooms built over four floors decorated in pale colours complemented by blue, plaid soft furnishings and functional wood furniture. All rooms are serviced daily and comprise a double bedroom, a separate lounge with a sofabed and a kitchen. The bathrooms are fitted with shower/tub combinations and include complimentary designer toiletries, hair dryers and makeup mirrors. Standard amenities include satellite television, minibars, safes, blackout drapes and extra towels, linens and bedding.
Expert Tip. The flea market on Shortmarket Street has been around as a market of one kind or another since 1710. Originally a farmers' market, it now offers African crafts, jewellery and curios and is host to a myriad of buskers. Flanked by beautiful buildings including the Old Town House, the best time to head here is on a Saturday morning. After perusing the stalls, head for a drink or bite to eat in one of the many nearby bars, restaurants and cafes.
