Stellenbosch hotels

Pros: Penelope, the hostess/owner is helpful, kind, efficient, and a great cook. We feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to stay at her beautiful guesthouse.

Pros: Beautiful property in the vineyards with a small pool on site. The breakfast in the morning was good and facilities were kept very clean and neat

Cons: Value for money was a bit below expectations (eg no coffee available at the pool bar, orders mixed up at breakfast), but aside from that we were very happy with our stay

Pros: The staff were all so wonderfully friendly and efficient. Porché and Sunette at reception were an absolute dream and so accommodating. We traveled with a small baby and they ensured everything was seamless for us helping us to settle in the evenings with minimal fuss. We got a beautiful upgrade to a stunning room with our own pool which was incredible with the baby also. The room, views and pool were stunning. Breakfast delightful and everyone so warm and friendly. Really enjoyable few days. Well located close to Tokara and Delaire also for nice lunches and wine tastings

Cons: We hadn’t fully realised it’s a destination / wedding venue so was quite quiet. It worked for us as with a small baby our evenings were low key but it may not suit for everyone if looking for a buzzy venue

Pros: Beautiful rooms, property and lovely staff

Cons: No room service available, just a small mini bar. Nearest restaurant that isn’t a winery is far and not a huge selection.

Pros: Beautiful spot in the wineries

Cons: The noise of the plonse bath

Pros: Wow is the neatvword to describe the venue/service/rooms and location!! The team welcoming us on arrival were very friendly and helpful. Special mention to Blayze your assistant F&B manager - man alive he gors above and beyond. Also shout out to Isaac I have already recommended this to friends as a place their bring their wives for a treat.

Cons: My only disappointment (although well handled by management when communicated) was the following : Room cleaning was very below par and did not leave a good impression. Things which could.make it even better : Train your room cleaning staff to serve/service(it felt like they are doing the breakfast service as well) Get staff on ear pieces for their radio chat... as a guest you hear it all otherwise.

Pros: Simply exceptional. Hotels like this are rare and hard to find. From beginning to end it was amazing. The view, the food, the wine and the team 10 / 10. You will not be disappointed

Cons: Nothing except having to leave.

Pros: The gardens and surrounding were beautiful and exceptionally manicured.

Cons: Very expensive

Pros: Location, views, environment, services are all superb. Reception was especially helpful. The collection of art works throughout the property and the fact that you can walk in the vineyards and enjoy the views and hikes really made the stay unforgettable.

Cons: Nothing really except the prices for everything are extremely high even for London/NYC/Tokyo standard. Though I think it shouldn’t matter for those who can afford or are willing to pay the premium for such great experiences. You are most likely going to enjoy it if you are one of those few...

Pros: Beautiful rooms, decor and attention to detail. A perfect view towards Cape Town. The food at Indochine is remarkable and breakfast and true feast. Definitely a 5* cappuccino. The ladies at the SPA are gems and the treatments were very good.

Pros: Quaint and homely. Beautiful decor and awesome breakfast!

Pros: Very nice guest house in the center of Stellenbosch. All restaurants and shops in walking distance made evening planning so easy.

Cons: No smoking - even on outside part allowed

Pros: Very centrally located and could walk everywhere. The room was spacious and the bathroom big. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Cons: our room was next to their office which was way too loud. It was also very disturbing to be told that the cars are not safe as there could be break-ins so we need to remove everything from the car.

Pros: Roomy but in a building a walk away from old hotel which we weren’t told

Cons: A bit away from the Main Street

Pros: Location fab. Lovely staff. Safe free parking. Great breakfast reception manager very good

Cons: All good!!

Cons: Nothing

Cons: Unfortunately we were not informed that part of our stay the formal restaurant was not available due to private function.

Pros: Beautiful hotel, outstanding service, two nice restaurants. Great place to spend time as a couple or with children to explore the wine region!

Cons: Nothing

Pros: A great place with a great restaurant.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Welcoming staff.

Cons: Overall very pleasant for a spur of the moment decision to stay the night. Pool area disappointing - rather shabby whereas they could make it a real destination if it was tidier with a bar service. Balcony separators odd too. Suggest full height.

Pros: The most perfect, beautiful stay. The staff couldn't do enough, the property and surroundings were so picturesque. Everything was perfection and we couldn't have asked for more.

Pros: This is probably one of the best hotels that I have stayed at. I have never received such amazing customer service like that from a hotel ever! From start to finish you are treated like royalty at Asara. Its a beautiful hotel in a beautiful location! I cant recommend this hotel enough

Cons: Everything was perfect

Pros: Great wine. Views! Food!

Pros: The hotel and winery are really beautiful and the staff is very attentive. We were treated very well by everyone and they were able to provide everything that we needed.

Cons: We didn’t like that the hotel charges for the ammenities (soap, shampoo, etc) that are left in the room. It’s not a cheap hotel, so it’s absolutely unnecessary and unpolite to leave such a message in the room.

Pros: The view and amenities were great

Cons: - staff was cold, disinterested and unprofessional - there was no concierge - there was no willingness to assist me in my queries - we had dinner at the restaurant (it's a wine farm) and the waiter couldn't tell us a single thing about any of the wines - when asked about the sommelier, he apparently wasn't around either - as I was about to leave my room for check out. They called me at 11:01. A literal minute after check time. I have never felt so unwelcome at any hotel, never mind a "5 star" establishment

Pros: The location; The room decoration, facilities and size. Staff always ready to help.

Cons: Our room (number 2??) was in the 1st level of a building far away from the reception, restaurant and hotel entrance. To reach it you have to climb a very steep staircase with very high steps. For someone over 70 this is a big inconvenience. In fact, it seems this no place for people with walking difficulties. Lots of stairs are the rule. It must be said that the staff are always ready to help. But even so...

Pros: Location Tempe pays excellent attention to detail Nothing is too much trouble Rooms are beautiful

Pros: From the moment I checked in to when I left, it was just an amazing experience. The host Themba made sure that anything we needed we got. The breakfast was extensive and delicious. It more than deserves the 5 star rating, will definitely go back

Cons: Absolutely nothing

Pros: good location and decent sized room with private patio...security was good too

Cons: Breakfast was OK but not particularly noteworthy

Pros: The location was perfect....everything provided to ensure we had a perfect stay. Thimbe was extremely efficient and helped us in booking taxis etc.We would certainly recommend.

Cons: Nothing to dislike

Cons: Not much.

Pros: Beautiful location with exceptional service and great food.

Pros: The location is very peaceful and was ideal for my three day 'check out of life and relax' break. Staff were awesome and so friendly and helpful and my room was cleaned twice a day. Also the in-room nespresso machine was a lovely add on for my coffee needs.

Pros: A very nice and simple right on point

Cons: Honestly nothing

Pros: Great facilities, indoor and outdoor pool, sauna and steam room. Delicious breakfast !

Cons: We had a few kids that were staying during our time at the hotel , if you are looking for a peaceful quiet getaway there is a chance the spa pool will not be as quiet as you expect.

Pros: The Spa staff are EXCELLENT. The heated pool and jacuzzi were perfect temperature!!! Breakfast was completely satisfying. Housekeeping staff were really sweet. Our neighbours had beautiful children. We loved it here !

Cons: Took far too long to check us in; however they certainly made up for the delay thereafter...
