Had an awesome stay at the mentioned hotel.. I had my reservations, but they surprised me..The place is very well situated, between the mountains and the winelands of Stellenbosch. Once inside,you can feel the relaxing atmosphere. Kids had loads of fun,as there was lot to do for them. Will definitively recommend it and go back myself.... Big Thumps Up.

TOP TIP: If you are staying at a Protea Hotel for any length of time look into getting a Gold Procard. You pay for it and can purchase it at the time of booking over the phone but it gets you 10% off the room rate and up to 50% of all food. If you are looking for somewhere fairly... More

The hotel itself is very average. Nothing extravagant as such to experience. The rooms are little on the shabbier side. Can be made much better. The pools are a big plus in the summer season so that gives one sufficient time to unwind. The restaurant's food was also average. We just had dinner there but was quite ordinary. The staff... More
