I really enjoyed the staff, and the morning buffet was delicious.

Jayson United Kingdom

What an exceptional lodge! The view was simply out of this world. Lodge beautiful and the staff really excellent service. The stay exceeded by expectations by far!!! THANK YOU Ludwig and all other staff. You really made my stay very very pleasant and I was sad to leave. I'll rate this lodge 5+++++

Alwyna United Kingdom

Breakfast was great! Beautiful terrace with beautiful view!

Marie United States of America

Such a beautiful place - we have stayed here twice now. The rooms are massive with exceptional views of the vineyard and mountain. The staff are so friendly and helpful. The location is close to many wine farms and the breakfast is delicious.

Mark Canada

It was certainly the most beautiful hotel I‘ve ever stayed at. The view from the bedroom, bathroom and balcony to the vineyard are breathtaking! Breakfast is plentiful and delicious, but it’s necessary to choose the dishes the day before. For who booked the hotel for just one day, I recommend that arrive early. Wine tasting for free and massage can only be done until late afternoon. Extremely helpful staff!

Betina Brazil

Incredible views, great location, very nice staff and delicious breakfast. We also had a lovely couples massage in our room. We were so sad to leave such a beautiful place!

Arielle Switzerland

The views of the mountains and vineyards were amazing. We were able to have breakfast brought to our room and ate outside overlooking the views. The staff was all very kind and accommodating. Great location, close to some great vineyards.

Arianna United States of America

There is no other word to describe Banhoek Lodge other than "perfect." The people, setting, food, rooms, EVERYTHING! Even with an over-the-top safari experience, Banhoek Lodge was the highlight of our trip. Stunning landscape just sets the tempo for an unbelievable stay. Made us reconsider turning our "once in a lifetime trip" into an annual things. Hope we are able to make it back one day!

Daniel United States of America

the view from the room is breathtaking, room is very spacious and comfortable

Felipe Brazil

We loved everything about this lodge- the location is close to many vineyards and restaurants, the bed was very comfy, the room was big with an asking view of the area and the fireplace was the icing on the cake! Also had a wonderful breakfast. The service was top notch and we can’t wait to go back!

One of our top picks in Stellenbosch. Banhoek Lodge is located along the scenic Helshoogte Pass, which offers an array of wine farms. The lodge features views of the vineyards and mountains.

The elegant rooms and suites come complete with wooden furnishings and offer a balcony with views of the mountain. The air-conditioned units include a seating area, fireplace, flat-screen satellite TV and private bathroom.

There are wineries within walking distance and restaurants such as Tokara and Indochine at Delaire Graff Estate are within a 5-minute drive.

Activities can be enjoyed in the surroundings, including cycling and hiking. The historical town of Stellenbosch is 5 mi away and Franschhoek is 12 mi away. Cape Town International Airport can be reached in 27 mi.
