Best place to stay in Franschoek
We had a two story flat!! With excellent Internet connection, even during a big thunderstorm. Beautiful bathroom, nice mini bar selection so we could have a drink and watch the wine train go by in the rain that day. Breakfast was delicious and fresh.

The perfect place for a luxurious and lovely stay
Magnificent property and grounds! Lovely garden and pool. We really enjoyed our short stay here - relaxing, luxurious, inviting - and would have enjoyed staying much longer. Very convenient and great staff. Highly recommended.

Amazing hotel in stunning grounds!
Stunning grounds!!! Lovely mountain views from the pools. Beautiful big room with four-poster bed, and a large bathroom with lavender toiletries. Excellent service. The only thing I think needs to be addressed is the breakfast. On our first morning, it was full to the brim with delicious things – but on the second morning, there was about 30% the amount of things as the previous day, including leftover pastries and cheeses which didn’t look good. Would also have loved to be helped with our many bags at departure time. But all in all, this was an incredible stay.

Expensive for what it is
Beautiful setting but the rooms are dates for the 5 star rating and price. Great breakfast though and (I can imagine) a good spot for families or groups visiting the winelands.

Charming hotel with fantastic service
Lovely hotel, great sized rooms and heated pool. The hot and cold breakfast choices were great; the waffles with fresh fruit were delicious. Details such as the free minibus service, gated parking and personal touches in the room were thoughtful and made us feel very welcome. I would love to come back. The staff were fantastic

Fantastic hotel in a wonderful resort. Absolutely perfect in every way. A surprising and highly valued bonus was the free shuttle bus service for dropping off and picking up anywhere in the town.
