Cycling

Discover Cape Town in a whole new way with Cape Grace’s exclusive RE:CYCLE bicycles by Vélosophy, crafted from recycled Nespresso capsules. This unique offering combines sustainability, design, and adventure, inviting guests to explore the city’s vibrant landscapes on two wheels. As the first hotel in South Africa to offer this innovative experience, Cape Grace invites guests to enjoy an eco-conscious way to discover the beauty of the Mother City. With names like Grace, Two Oceans, Mermaid, and Breeze, each of the 10 bicycles adds a touch of personality to your journey.

 

Sustainability Meets Style

 

These limited-edition bicycles are a collaboration between Swedish lifestyle brand Vélosophy and Nespresso, showcasing a commitment to a circular economy. Made with 95% recycled aluminium, the bikes feature:

 

A vivid frame inspired by Nespresso’s “Ice Leggero” capsule.

A bell shaped like the iconic Vertuo capsule.

A steam-bent oak basket with two cup holders—perfect for coffee on the go.

Seamless Cycling Experience

Start your adventure with ease. Reserve your RE:CYCLE bike at check-in or through the concierge, and receive everything you need for a day of exploration:

 

  • A helmet for safety.
  • A detailed map to guide your route.
  • Secure chains and locks for spontaneous stops.

 

Before setting out, guests complete a quick indemnity form and provide a contact number for peace of mind. Bicycles must be returned before sunset, and each one is meticulously cleaned and sanitised after use.
