The school boasts state of the art facilities, including a show kitchen and a cocktail bar that forms an integral part of the Hotel School Restaurant, which is open to the general public.

Thembisile Molose, the Hotel School Director attributes their success to close ties with industry and remaining on par with the latest developments in their sector.

“Our international benchmarking ensures that we attract top learners from the best schools,” he says,

Last year the Hotel School signed a memorandum of understanding with top international culinary schools such as Ferrandi, a hotel school in Paris, France.

The campus also houses the Maritime Engineering Department and the cutting-edge Survival Centre. The campus also houses slipways that can accommodate vessels up to 46 ton, which can be rented.
