The Western Cape is home to some of the world's best hotels.

This is after the Pepperclub Hotel & Spa was named as Africa's Leading City Hotel for the second time in a row by the World Travel Awards.

The coveted accolade, announced last week, follows hot on the heels of Franschhoek's La Residence Hotel being listed by the Business Insider, a business and technology website, as one of the best hotels in the world.

The World Travel Awards, considered the "Oscars of the travel industry", give recognition to hotels "pushing the boundaries of industry excellence".

The Pepperclub Hotel & Spa won the sought-after award ahead of Egypt's Hilton Cairo Zamalek Residences, Kenya's Palacina The Residence & The Suites and Morocco's Palmeraie Village.
