“Amazing stay”
Amazing stay here, staff were all very friendly and attentive (especially JB). Stored our luggage as we arrived early and allowed us to freshen up ready for lunch before the room was ready. Hotel and room were exceptional. Walking distance to restaurants, shops and wine tram station. Lots of vineyards were an easy uber drive away too. Staff offered some great restaurant recommendations too. Breakfast was also a nice addition. Would definitely recommend staying here whilst in Franschhoek.

“10/10 Location 10/10 Property - Struggle to find better”
Incredible location, secured parking spaces out the front of the property. The location is one street back from the main road in Franschhoek which is exactly where you want to be (we have visited Franschhoek around 10x)

Everything was fine. The only problem we had were the stairs. We specifically sent a message requesting a ground floor room as my husband had just had his knee replaced. We were told that it would be arranged. But on arriving we were told that we were to go upstairs and you were fully booked. Disappointed!
