Overview & Capacity

Nowhere else in South Africa lets you host a board dinner in the actual club Cecil Rhodes and Barney Barnato built in 1881. The Kimberley Club trades on that history hard - grand dining halls, billiard room, Rhodes Grill - and for storytelling-led corporate dinners it is unbeatable in this market. The honest caveat: recent reviews say upkeep is slipping, so walk the building before you sell it to a client. Charm this deep forgives a lot, but not everything.
