Well positioned “boutique” style hotel
Lovely, almost boutique hotel very well positioned on the end of Franschhoeks Main Street. Hotel is two story with rooms largely overlooking a central pool/garden court yard Hotel has its own gated secure free parking. Adjoining the hotel is the Hussar Restaurant which is well worth trying although, like many of the more popular restaurants in Franschhoek is busy and booking is recommended. I would thoroughly recommend the hotel.

Perfect Hotel for a Wine Weekend
Beautiful hotel in the heart of Franschhoek. I wish I had time to stay longer and relax at the pool. It is an easy walk to everything in the main area Franschhoek and a quick uber ride to the all of the wineries. I could not recommend this hotel more.

We had problems at check in as they couldn’t find our confirmed booking. 10 minutes later it was sorted so we got a room. Nice hotel with a nice pool area close to restaurants. The breakfast was not as good as it have been on previous stays.

It was my first time to South Africa, the receptionist and manager of the hotel helped me feel safe and welcomed. We arrived late due to delay and the receptionist was friendly, telling us where we can go to stretch our legs. When I asked if I can move the swing chair to outside my room, the manager offer to get the guard to help me. The place is lovely and I will definitely go back again.

Clean and centrally located, but I think I could have found better options if I had done more research. The breakfast was just okay and the hotel experience felt generic.
