The property was initially used as residence for Lady Anne Barnard, daughter of James Lindsay, the Fifth Earl of Balcarres. It turned into a hotel in 1894, under Mrs. O'Sullivan, the first general manager. For over 2 centuries, it evolved into a more environmentally-friendly and contemporary hotel in Cape Town. To ensure modern comforts, it was renovated in 2008 during the 350th celebration of wine-making in the city, along with the reconstruction of a small but vital part of the property, the vine area.

Historic
The Cellars-Hohenort dates as far back as the 17th century, when it used to be a farm owned by the Dutch East India Company. After changing many owners, at the beginning of the 20th century the wine cellar was created and the building started taking a shape closer to that of today's, as it operated as a country guesthouse. In 1991, when Liz McGrath took ownership of the building, renovations began in order for it to be turned into the charming hotel that it is today.
