Steenberg Hotel

Running a hotel in Cape Town means managing Cape Town's particular challenges—winter rainfall that can flood infrastructure, summer heat that exhausts cooling systems, and the fact that many buildings weren't originally designed with modern hospitality demands. At Steenberg Hotel, the work involves understanding how the property works through those seasons: maintaining water systems through the wet months, managing solar and inverter setup during load shedding, keeping linen and kitchen operations running smoothly when Eskom's contribution is unpredictable. It's not just about fresh towels and breakfast; it's about the operational reality of keeping guests comfortable when the city itself is under pressure.
