We’ve stayed at Marianne twice now and thoroughly enjoyed both visits. The staff are very welcoming and the property and estate has a lovely, relaxed feel. There’s plenty of opportunity to walk in the vineyards and enjoy wine and nice food in the restaurant.

Liked: Cleanliness
The staff were kind and friendly, they allowed us to check in early as we were there early. The wine tasting was included and it was a lovely surprise as I didn’t know they had it. The rooms were spacious, we were 4 adults so they gave us the family room. The only issue was the air conditioning don’t work so it was really hot inside the room. We tried to open the windows and door but the wind was too strong so it slammed the door. They promised to send someone to fix it but no one came. The pool was nice but could be cleaner. Overall a good place for resting on your way to your destination.

Family vibes on a hill overlooking the valley

Amazing staff. We had the master suite, part of the old estate. Overlooking the pool and valley. Amazing views. Serene and chill days by the pool. Easy to go for excursions if you have a car; 10-20min to a lot of options. The old restaurant has burnt down and been moved up to the main building. It suffer a bit because it is a very small kitchen, but it sounds like they have plans to expand. Very generous, allowed us to try wines and explained a lot. Would sit with us and share. Felt very homely & friendly.

Sehr schöne Zeit in tollem Ambiente

Wir haben unsere 3 Urlaubstage in diesem sehr schön gelegenen und von Weinbergen umgebenen Weingut richtig genossen. Gute Weine, sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal, schöne Unterkunft mit eigenem Pool. Gutes FrĂŒhstĂŒck mit herrlichem Ausblick von der Terrasse auf die Weinberge. Stellenbosch, Franschhoek und die umliegenden WeingĂŒter sind gut zu erreichen. Die Kosten fĂŒr den Abholservice wurden uns leider vorab nicht mitgeteilt ansonsten war alles perfekt und sehr angenehm.

Lugar muito lindo, comida e vinhos com muita qualidade, funcionårios muito educados e prestativos. Café da manhã deixa um pouco a desejar, um pouco confuso na hora de solicitar alguns alimentos, faltou também um pouco de capricho na arrumação do quarto.

Excellent with good staff.

The rooms vary a lot, some are excellent, some are not so good. Great staff. We have now stayed in 3 rooms during 2 holidays. We loved the room in the L'Ermitage, very roomy and comfortable. Only disadvantage was you had to have breakfast in that area and not at the top of the hill main restaurant which would have been better. We loved the Pool Room, lovely views. We thought we would like the Manor House room but did not like it much and very hot during the power cut.

Eine Katastrophe! Das Weingut ist wunderschön gelegen. Egal, ob man an die Weinberge denkt, oder aber die GebĂ€ude. Wir hatten auch wunderschönes Wetter, wenn auch kĂŒhl, sodass wir die Landschaft sehr genossen haben. Wenn denn nur die Gastfreundschaft und ProfessionalitĂ€t ebenso gut wĂ€ren: Wir hatten ein Superior-Doppelzimmer ĂŒber Expedia gebucht, sollten aber bei Ankunft die Honeymoon Hut erhalten. Diese ist in der Tat eine HĂŒtte, weitab jeglicher HĂ€user in den Weinbergen. Das bedeutet kein Wifi, keine AirCon, Fahrt zum FrĂŒhstĂŒck mit dem Auto zum Haupthaus. Wir haben diese Reservierung abgelehnt mit dem Verweis, dass wir laut Expedia-Buchung ein Superior Double gebucht haben. Der Ausdruck unserer Expedia-Unterlage interessierte die Hotelmanagerin aber nicht. Man bot uns einen Standard room an, obwohl Superior rooms frei gewesen wĂ€ren. Wir sollten zunĂ€chst 2000 ZAR Rand Aufpreis zahlen, man gab sich dann aber mit 1000 ZAR zufrieden. Wir haben uns dann noch weiter mit dem Haus herumĂ€rgern mĂŒssen. ‱ Am Ankunftstag war das Restaurant geschlossen mit dem Verweis auf die Hochzeit am Vortag. --> Abendessen in 20 km in der nĂ€chsten Stadt . ‱ Das FrĂŒhstĂŒcksbuffet war ein Witz. Es sollte fĂŒr etwa 20 GĂ€ste reichen, nachgefĂŒllt wurde ĂŒberhaupt nichts. Selbst Brot oder Brötchen fehlten. ‱ Restaurantbuchung fĂŒr den nĂ€chsten Abend wieder abgelehnt. ‱ Als wir abends zurĂŒckkamen, kein WC-Papier im Zimmer und Rezeption geschlossen! Am Ende hat Expedia uns einen Refund erstattet.
