Lovely

Pros: Great friendly staff, nice room, Fab breakfast and nice pool area

Cons: its quite expensive per night

Barbara 8/10

Overall a good experience but would point out that most of the gueste seemed on the mature side ( including myself )

Pros: The hotel gardens were beautiful but rooms are a little dated and overpriced compared to other accommodation in the area . The pool area was excellent with plenty of towels and sunbeds

Cons: The beds were on the firm side for me and as stated a little old fashioned and overpriced compared with other accommodation in the area.

Perfect place in Franschhoek

Pros: Welcoming, great food, friendly staff and lovely grounds / pool etc.

Cons: Nothing, it was great.

Selvan 10/10
Gibraltar 🇬🇮

Great property and a great setting in a lovely town.

Pros: Beautiful gardens and very well situated. Slightly out of the central area but we had a car and at a push there is public transport or even to walk if not too warm. Delicious and well presented breakfast in a delightful setting and we used the pool too and ate in their restaurant on our first night. Room was large and spacious and the bed very comfortable. We had a room near the front of the property but its quiet and there was no traffic noise at night.

Cons: Cannot criticise. Attentive service, easy and very secure parking.

highly recommended place to relax

Pros: great resort, highly recommended. very friendly staff. proper chilled area. only small thing missing i would say was there's no gym available. However the hotel offers complementary transport and access to the gym close by.

Geoff 9/10

Pros: The location is great as is the shuttle service to and from the town centre. The food and service at both the restaurant and breakfast room were both excellent without anything being too much trouble for the friendly and attentive staff. The hotel staff without exception were the best!

Exceeded Expectations

Pros: A really nice hotel. Beautiful gardens, plenty of genuinely smiling staff in all departments. Very good breakfast . We stayed in one of the 2 storey cottages which had the benefit of an upstairs terrace with sun all day and lovely views to the hills. But it was a bit noisy during the day from nearby winetram and work in the fields opposite. If we went again we'd go for one of the villa suites. It's a bit out of town but the free shuttle worked a treat.

Cons: The restaurant isn't the best in town but with so many others to choose from, who cares.
