Pros: Great location; wine tram & great restaurants in walking distance Excellent breakfast Beautiful, spacious room Helpful staff

Pros: The location, the building, the view over the vibeyards, the service, the art, the pool area, the spa: everything was perfect!!! We will come back very soon.

Pros: staff and art works in room and hotel was awesome, the service while in the house and pool could be improved as the staff rarely here. (only small thing)

Pros: Staff were incredible and made you feel special from the moment you arrived. Attention to detail on the property is phenomenal. The gardens genuinely in a league of their own.

Pros: Everything was luxurious. Staff friendly and helpful. Facilities excellent! Nothing to complain about

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Beautiful property, great art . Superb location. Tranquil setting.

Cons: Breakfast not as you would expect from such an establishment. Limited and slow service. Service staff on patio bar area require much more training with regards to customer experience management and expectation managementSelection of foods on offer, certainly not on par with other " 6 stars", i have stayed at before. In addition, food prices are way over the top for what is on offer!

Pros: The property was absolutely sublime, as art lovers and collectors, it was a treat staying at a place where that was one of the focal point, the art collection and the sculptures in the pristine, immaculate garden were amazing. I’m a great fan of mullineux wines and loved the complimentary tasting that was offered with our stay. The spa was clean, quaint and exactly what we needed to relax and just simply unplug. We were hosted in the underground cellar for our anniversary dinner and the food was out of this world. Great property, friendly staff beautiful views. Simply perfect. We will be back. Mr & Mrs Akinola

Cons: Very little. The only thing we would have like was if the staff was attentive and proactive with creating something special for our anniversary. We had to mention a couple times before something was done which felt a little off beat from great customer service we were having. It felt like they were trying to save on giving something complimentary, which felt a little disappointing given that the place is not cheap at all but we still added an extra night - guests always feel like getting something in return to appreciate them especially on a special occasion. One more disappointment was that we told the hotel that we will be arriving on a late flight and knew that we would have no food options by the time we got there and asked that they have something to eat for us. We were promised a charcuterie board that we would find in our room but to our disappointment we only got a peach, apple and some grapes.

Pros: Ambiance. Views. Property relaxing

Pros: We were met and spoilt the entire 24 hours that we were there - it was a very special weekend with lots of extra touches - thank you so much to the staff and General manager for all their efforts on my husband's 50th bday weekend away.

Cons: Nothing - all was perfect

Pros: Amazing staff and views - free upgrade as we were getting engaged, complimentary minibar which is unusual, a fantastic event by and dinner for our engagement!

Cons: Mix-up at check-out and lower pool was a bit chilly (not heated). Mattress was not that great and bed was high up and a bit ridiculous (even though it looked good).

Pros: The most beautiful guest house with lovely management

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Fransvliet Guesthouse was overall outstanding. Staff were very helpful and friendly. We really had a memorable stay at this lovely location.

Pros: Fransvliet is located near Franschhoek, so you have the best of both worlds - farm and town. It was not only the bedroom that was spacious, the bathroom was unusually spacious. The interior was tastefully done and very modern, the bed was comfortable, the linen was very good. Our bedroom opened at the back on our own patio with outdoor furniture and a small swimming pool which was still under construction. Aircon and WiFi was excellent. The breakfasts was excellent - everything was super fresh and tasty. Parking was free and safe.The staff was very friendly and the service excellent.

Pros: Great location, easy to find with clean, cool and spacious rooms. Shirley, Victor and the rest of the team we’re fantastic hosts. I didn’t have much time to research our trip to Franschhoek in advance so emailed Shirley to ask for advice. She helped arrange a tour guide who took us around vineyards based on our tastes. Victor was excellent during our stay at giving us advice and arranging taxis. And I’ve not even mentioned the delicious hearty, fresh and home-cooked breakfasts - a must for any days spent wine tasting. I’ve already recommended Fransvliet to family and friends.

Pros: Beautifully renovated farmhouse with stunning mountain views. The rooms are fabulous as are the gardens & the staff could not have been more welcoming.Already planning our return!!

Cons: I

Pros: Warm welcome,beautiful rooms and bathrooms each with its own outdoor patio The view from the patio is magnificent with the mountains and vineyards The breakfast is delicious Best poached eggs on a portobello mushroom The service is personal and the owner chats to all the guests as breakfast is served The location is a short drive into Franschhoek but has a calmness to it away from the business of the town

Cons: No negatives

Pros: A good location with welcoming staff and a delicious breakfast. The cottages were tastefully decorated and spacious with a nice private outdoor seating area where we enjoyed sitting in the evening with a bottle of wine watching the full moon rise over the mountains. The pool was welcoming after a ‘tiring’ day visiting vineyards and the shops.

Pros: Excellent breakfast - great coffee.

Pros: The guest house is a short stroll from the main street in Franschhoek : very convenient. The pool was lovely to relax around in the afternoon. Breakfasts were great.

Pros: The friendly, helpful and cheerful staff - the cleanliness and extremely comfortable bed/ luxurious linen.

Cons: As a single person it was very pricey as there seemed to be no recognition of single supplement - actually think they were expecting a couple despite my (trying to) making clear I was a solo traveler. Pool was also extremely small, but this not a major issue given beautiful surrounds.

Pros: The staff were outstanding and the breakfasts superb.

Cons: Grass needed cutting and swimming pool certainly wasn’t inviting.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Beautiful grounds and peaceful surroundings nice big comfortable rooms

Pros: Tastefully decorated. Wonderful garden. Lovely staff. Fabulous breakfast.

Cons: We love dogs but the barking started at 06.00.

Pros: Everything

Pros: Beautiful property, excellent breakfast

Cons: Issues with water (no water) several hours every day we were there.(3 days) No alternative offered for toilet and no drinking water provided by management. Also issues with internet, available intermittently. Therefore what we thought was a five stars became a two stars establishment.

Pros: The owner is wonderful and the staff are very helpful. The house is a little out of town so they put on a free shuttle every night to and from the town which is great - they will take you to your restaurant and pick you up when you are ready as well. Breakfast was amazing and the premises were stunning. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Pros: Excellent room that opened into a sitting area with a small pool. Gardens where beautiful. Breakfast excellent.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Lovely helpful owner and staff Big comfy bed Quiet location yet within walking distance of restaurants, shops, galleries etc Delicious breakfast

Cons: N/A

Pros: We loved the location in the vine yard/orchards, mountain backdrop and friendly owner. We stayed in the upper attic room which was very comfortably laid out. The small pool overlooks the vineyards. Great Breakfast

Cons: Worth noting whilst the power is cut (which happened on a daily basis in S Africa) for 2 hours at a time, the attic room becomes pretty hot. Couldn't get the air con to stop blowing directly onto the bed ( but this happens in a lot of places). The room was quite pricey compared to others in S Africa, but I'm guessing this is because it is (pretty but touristic) Franschoek.

Pros: Such a beautiful place. Very spacious room & bathroom - so clean - amazing breakfasts & fabulous views. Excellent wine!

Pros: Brilliant setting in a vineyard, but walking distance to town. Rooms are lovely

Cons: Nothing

Cons: We had not booked for a longer stay.

Pros: Very well designed, private atmosphere, surrounded by nature. Spectacular setting and views. Both the family that owns the hotel and the staff are super relaxed, caring and helpful.

Pros: Gardens, pool, room, location . The big thing is the amazing friendly staff, who could not do enough for you .

Pros: Amazing staff, beautiful setting, wonderful amenities and tranquility in the middle of the vineyards

Pros: If you are looking for a beautiful,tranquil boutique hotel in the heart of the Winelands where nothing is too much for the staff then look no further. This family run hotel was the last stop on our SA holiday and we definitely saved the best til last - was perfect in every way. And a huge thank you to Tisha and Peter and all their staff for looking after us so well - especially as I wasn’t very well (nothing to do with the hotel - food is excellent). We really do hope to come back again soon.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Beautiful swimming pool with adjoining jacuzzi. The lovely chameleon was always around to greet us on our way to the room. Stunning location. To relax and unwind in a beautiful setting, this is really hard to beat

Pros: Great stylish property in a great location between vineyards and mountains. Great natural pool, delicious breakfast with sparkling wine and oysters every day on top. All staff were professional and helpful.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Very lovely decorated guesthouse with great hospitality close to all the popular vineyards and restaurants. As we had a late flight back home Tina, the owner, allowed us to stay at the pool till late in the afternoon and offered her personal bathroom to take a shower before departure (guesthouse was fully booked that day) !

Pros: Wonderful host, excellent location. The room was well equipped and the view form the balcony was great. Our host also had lots of wonderful suggestions for local attractions and restaurants.

Pros: The property was to a very high standard beautiful setting and our apartment was very spacious with some lovely little extra touches which made our stay extra special. It is located in a very quiet residential road within very easy walking distance to all the local shops and restaurants and I would stay here again loved it !!!

Cons: There was nothing I could fault it was excellent loved it !!!

Pros: Very pretty place. Tina was extremely pleasant and helpful and location was good. Had our own balcony to watch the sunset from.

Pros: This is a very comfortable, beautifully kept property just a five minute walk from the Main Street in Franshoek. Tina and staff couldn’t have been more helpful and pleasant to deal with. Our room was fully equipped, clean and roomy, and the outdoor area and pool was a lovely place to chill out in between tours. I would definitely stay again if we’re lucky enough to come back.

Pros: It was such a lovely hotel. Kim and the team we’re amazing. Nothing was too much trouble

Cons: Nothing

Cons: Everything was perfect.

Pros: Very nice set up and a very nice feel to the overall hotel. Well styled and well equipped rooms. Bathrooms were very nice too. Beds were huge and there was a good choice of breakfast options.

Cons: Our room, despite being a luxury room, felt slightly undersized. Especially compared to our other accommodation on our trip. There was also a door within our room that led onto a corridor maybe, and we could her every person who went past. If we stayed for more than two nights we would have asked to move.

Pros: Everything. The room, the location, the staff. Everything was perfect. It’s conveniently located, with such knowledgable, helpful and brilliant staff (Thanks Justin and Luca!), with the most beautiful rooms and decor - it couldn’t be better. The bed was very comfortable. The room and the communal areas are beautiful and make you immediately want to redecorate your own home! It’s located just off the main street in Franschhoek so it’s quiet but no distance to the restaurants / wine tram stop etc. You feel so looked after by the staff. Justin gave us recommendations for our onward trip to Hermanus, which were all brilliant. Luca also very wisely rearranged the dinner reservation we’d made at a nice restaurant for after our day on the wine tram to another night instead - which was a very good decision!! Don’t hesitate to book this place!

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Staff excellent Excellent breakfast Looked after very well

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Excellent, personal and friendly service!

Pros: Lovely building, well appointed with super welcoming staff who made us feel very at home

Pros: Perfect family suite for our first holiday with our 6 month old. Great space with two bedrooms and lounge area, so we didn’t disturb her when she was asleep and we could enjoy the evening. Ordered a cheeseboard from the kitchen after a long day of travelling and a bottle of wine which was a nice touch. Outside space is well maintained and the balcony for the suite is large with areas for eating and relaxing. We hope to come back soon!

Pros: All of it. Quite and central.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Such a gorgeous place to stay. We had the garden room which is near to the pool and has its own garden area. The bed was massive and so comfortable. Huge room which was so luxurious and a huge bathroom with a shower and roll top bath. All the staff were so welcoming and helpful. The breakfast was amazing and we loved the cosy bar area too. Perfect in every way.

Cons: I just loved how gorgeous our room was, the artworks around the property is just awesome. The food at Protégé restaurant was just Devine... We didn’t get to experience La Petit Colombe but La Colombe is one of my favoutites so I guess it goes without saying, simply sublime. The service was also impeccable, I give them 10/10, worth another visit soon.

Pros: Staff so helpful and friendly, wondeful atmosphere

Pros: Everything - especially the car service to local wineries and the Leeu wine tasting itself

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Fantastic stay with very friendly and helpful staff. The breakfast was delicious

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The rooms were a nice size and the breakfast was good . The staff were pleasant . The property is lovely. Wine tasting team were also very friendly and welcoming. It was good value for money however if we had paid the full list rate I would have been disappointed

Cons: It was very difficult to find any staff to assist one outside of the breakfast time . The mineral water provided in our room was ready open and when I tried to find someone to help me replace it at 8pm I could not find anyone. We were also advised that there was high tea served from 3-5pm but when we got there at 4.30pm there was no one to be found. The property definitely requires some maintenance and the showerhead in our room needs replacing as it blocked up with lime scale. (I had to try clean it myself to get water to spray decently). In addition the shower leaks as there is a gap in the glass door. Tv is also too small for the room. We had also requested early check in at 11am which was confirmed but when we got there at 11am, we were advised that the check in time was only at 2pm and that our room was not ready. They did however manage to get it ready by 12.30.

Pros: The service, decor, facilities, breakfast, views, spa treatments and wine were all fantastic. Staff went above and beyond. Lovely turn down service, super comfy bed and excellent a la carte breakfast set up for you somewhere private in the guesthouse. Gorgeous local art. Best views in the valley.

Pros: Fantastic grounds, wonderful views and lovely wine.

Pros: Great food. Stunning location. Free tasting and high tea. Staff were very friendly and welcoming.

Pros: Very private beautiful estate. Incredibly friendly staff and owners. Make you feel like a guest in their home.

Cons: The roll curtain of the roofwindow in the room did not close and sunset started around 6:00

Pros: The Hotel is very small and quiet, but very boutique if I may say so:) This place is for those who love to be in harmony with nature, far from crowd. The view is absolutely stunning! Our room was absolutely beautiful and comfortable. The dinner in a restaurant was also very good. The breakfast was tasty and cosy. We met the owner of the Hotel. Very friendly gentleman, giving you the feeling you come to a friend's house. Thank you very much for a nice experience!

Cons: Nothing. Just come and enjoy. You won't be disappointed.

Pros: Good breakfast and withing close proximity of Franschhoek. The restaurant on the wine farm was very good. Staff were very friendly and helpful. wonderful views.

Cons: Smaller things eg no face clothes in the bathroom. We felt that we did not have a lot of privacy as many members of staff and the family were regularly asking if we were happy. The intentions were good.

Pros: The guesthouse is located very centrally and the Main Street just a short walk away. The room we stayed in was beautifully maintained (probably newly refurbished) - clean and well equipped. We used the pool every day we were there and the breakfast spread was very generous and tasty!

Cons: Nothing - perfect stay!

Pros: Everything everything everything!!! The minute we walked through the gate we knew we had landed in a real little GEM. Doesn’t happen often but it does here. From the warmest staff to the impeccably clean and thoughtfully appointed rooms. Couldn’t ask for more, had booked to stay 3 nights stayed six!! Will be back next year for two weeks!

Cons: Leaving it!’

Pros: Fabulous, you will not need to eat for some time afterwards!

Cons: Would have liked a mini-bar or honesty bar just to enjoy a drink around the pool but easily fixed at the local Pick n Pay!

Pros: Great hospitality, fantastic guesthouse, beautiful location.

Pros: We had a great stay at Les Chambres Guest House. The rooms were big, tidy and comfortable. The guest house, the garden and pool were all lovely. Very welcoming staff, who among other things made us a superb breakfast! Perfect location - nice and quiet but still close to restaurants and sights in Franschoek including the wine tram tour.

Pros: Awesome atmosphere in the Franschhoek style manor. Owner was extremely friendly.

Cons: Leaving

Pros: This guest house is not far off the Huguenot Road, yet it offers easy car parking. It has a charming atmosphere, with a good swimming pool set in beautiful gardens and very comfortable rooms. Breakfast is offered in the old house, which is also atmospheric, but slightly limited in the choices offered; that is understandable, given that it is a small establishment with not many rooms.

Cons: It is not staffed all the time, so it is essential to let them know when you are first arriving – but after that one has keys to let oneself in and out. It has been refurbished and there were still some teething problems when we were there, but these have probably been resolved by now.
