Tu alojamiento en Franschhoek

Excellent location for wine tours!!! Very nice and comfortable room -- good facilities - just the right size - pity i couldn't go with my partner. Great breakfast!! The staff bent over backwards to help with planning my wine tours and booking dinner etc. Likely i will visit again.

Way too noisy to make for a pleasant stay There were four of us in 2 separate rooms - we all had a terrible night's (rather lack of) sleep. A shame, because it's an attractive building inside & out; really clean; in a great location and (ironically) really comfy beds and lovely pillows and linen. But it is simply way too noisy to be viable as somewhere charging people to sleep. We arrived to the sound of construction noise - in fairness we had been pre-warned about renovations and makes sense to do such work out of season, but maybe not late on a Saturday afternoon. We were all woken up at 3.00 AM by screaming female voices. I assume guests after a good night out and get you can't control your guests' behaviour - but the screaming continued for half an hour, during which time hotel staff should have stepped in to tell them to show some respect to other guests and shut up. Then we were woken again by blaring music just after 6.00 AM. On phoning reception to point this out, we were told they know and it's the staff in the restaurant, who like to play music. It's terrible that it took guests to tell the hotel to tell their staff not to play blaring music at six in the morning. Some of the noise that blighted our stay was out of the hotel's control - but this was totally on them. Quite simply, the hotel staff wanted to listen to blaring music at six in the morning, without any care at all for paying guests, trying to sleep. This is inexcusable and shows utter contempt towards paying guests. The doors need better sound dampers and/or people who care about closing them as silently as possible - most of the slamming doors were early morning, so again I suspect staff not caring at all about the guest experience. And dogs constantly barking from very early morning, in between being woken by screaming and woken by music. This noise absolutely not in the hotel's control - but just added to the general cacophony and resulting sleep deprivation. In summary then not a hotel to book if you want a night's sleep, which is why you book a hotel. Mentioned to reception on check out, but got the sense they didn't care, as money already banked. And that's the really bad/sad part of this. A shame - could be lovely with a bit of consideration, care and a few adaptations.

L'ermitage- is like walking into a dream. The hospitality from the moment you enter the gate to the time you checkout. Oh, the picturess views are the main attactraction, the contrast between the lake and mountains was something I looked forward to seeing. Every morning felt like I was discovering something new, you just need to experience it, words can describe how perfect the place is. The pictures of the Honeymoon Suite don't actually do justice to how it actually look and how big it is on the inside. Lovely north facing balcony to sit and relax, enjoy the sun the whole day.Honey

We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 night stay here. All of the staff were very helpful and super friendly. Nothing was to much trouble. Even before we arrived my many queries and questions were always replied to immediately. .The location is perfect and the estate is stunning. This is a family run estate and all of the Holden Manz family, including the dogs made us feel very welcome. We would definitely recommend doing a wine tasting here as they have some amazing wines to offer. The breakfast each morning was delicious and had a great selection on offer. We would not hesitate to stay there again and would totally recommend drinking, eating and staying there.
