I loved my room, overlooking the courtyard and swimming pool. I loved having a balcony settled cosily between the beautiful, huge trees. And I had a double bed that could sleep three! The location is excellent if you want to experience the buzz in a Meditarean atmosphere to the likes of Paris or even Dubrovnik! From here there are many galleries and interesting small shops that could pose a challenge to your budget. And as a bonus my car had the luxury of "sleeping" in the valet parking garage. What a pleasure!

The hotel is in the heart of the town, close to a couple of very good restaurants. The place is stylish, the room comfortable, design well thought and functional. The staff was extremely helpful.

Donato Italy

Loved the friendliness of the reception- and housekeeping staff, not to mention the pool.

Fraser South Africa

The location was good. The staff were helpful and friendly. The food was great. The room had a good ambience.

Dean South Africa

very well placed in the heart of the town, good restaurants and wine yards around for wine tasting. the valet service for the car is a plus point. The staff were very caring and nice.

Rosario South Africa

Everything was wonderful, from the kind staff to the lovely appointed rooms. We stayed in the Whimsy Rooms or the old rooms of the hotel and we preferred it to the new modern rooms (which were also excellent). We had a lovely stay and will definitely go back again! The hotel is situated in the heart of Stellenbosch with so many restaurants around it...and the wonderful street atmosphere and buzz on the doorstep!

Jacques South Africa

The ambience of the hotel. That our room looked over the pool. That the location was perfect enabling us to walk around the town.
