Perfect Hotel for a Wine Weekend

Beautiful hotel in the heart of Franschhoek. I wish I had time to stay longer and relax at the pool. It is an easy walk to everything in the main area Franschhoek and a quick uber ride to the all of the wineries. I could not recommend this hotel more.

Well positioned “boutique” style hotel

Lovely, almost boutique hotel very well positioned on the end of Franschhoeks Main Street. Hotel is two story with rooms largely overlooking a central pool/garden court yard Hotel has its own gated secure free parking. Adjoining the hotel is the Hussar Restaurant which is well worth trying although, like many of the more popular restaurants in Franschhoek is busy and booking is recommended. I would thoroughly recommend the hotel.

We had problems at check in as they couldn’t find our confirmed booking. 10 minutes later it was sorted so we got a room. Nice hotel with a nice pool area close to restaurants. The breakfast was not as good as it have been on previous stays.

The hotel was fantastic, really clean and well maintained with nice large rooms and bathrooms. All of the staff were amazing from reception to breakfast and bar teams. The location is fab - short walk to wine tram and all the restaurants in town.

Hotel is nice but there aren’t enough seating areas around the pool, in particular sun beds. Rooms facing the road are a little noisy and dark. Breakfast area is dated and tired - it’s a nice hotel, polite staff but it’s looking a little dated
