Table Mountain & city highlights
The cable car (weather permitting), Bo-Kaap and the V&A Waterfront, with time to wander.
ZALS is a small collection of fully serviced one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments — and one penthouse — spread across Century City's best addresses, each a short walk from the canal and Canal Walk.
Find your stay
Century City was laid out from scratch as a city within a city — office towers and law firms above, a canal and the Intaka Island wetland reserve below, and one of Africa's largest shopping centres a short walk from both.
ZALS' apartments sit inside that plan: private front doors, full kitchens, and water closer than any hotel room in the district gets you.
Five apartments, each different. All fully serviced and self-catering, all in Century City.
Other currencies are estimates only. You always pay in rand (ZAR).
Tap a residence for photos, amenities and live availability — bookings are held automatically, no double-booking.
Rates shown are indicative starting points. Exact addresses and final rates are confirmed at booking.
Every ZALS residence is self-catering and fully serviced. A few things vary by unit — ask at enquiry if one's essential.
Fridge, oven, hob, kettle, toaster and all the cookware you'd want for a proper meal.
A dedicated spot to work, with wireless throughout the apartment.
Several residences include the full DStv bouquet.
Beds made up and towels provided before you arrive.
Fitted in select residences — ask which ones at enquiry.

Century City sits on the M5, roughly between the CBD and the airport, with most day-to-day essentials inside the precinct itself. A canal runs through the middle of it, with Intaka Island's wetland trails tucked in beside the towers.
Approximate distances from Century City.
Cape Town International is roughly 20 minutes from Century City. Book a private transfer and have a driver waiting when you land, instead of queueing for a taxi.

Century City is a good base for the Peninsula, the Winelands and the West Coast, and a car makes all three easy. Tell us the dates and we arrange the rental so it's ready when you arrive.

Chapman's Peak, the penguins at Boulders Beach and the reserve at Cape Point.
Stellenbosch, Franschhoek or Paarl, with estate tastings and lunch at a vineyard.
