My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights in mid-September. The hotel is truly gorgeous. The grounds are well maintained and the public spaces modern but comfortable. We did not eat dinner here, but did grab a late lunch upon arrival. The lunch was served outside in little private greenhouses which we enjoyed. I had tomato soup and their... more

Spent 2 nights in early spring at this lovely hotel. The weather was wet and a bit cold but the warm welcome we received made up for that. A large log fire was burning in the Reception area and our first sight of the Lounge all decorated in white was stunning. Our bedroom was large and well equiped with all... more

This hotel was recommended to us and we were not sorry we chose it. The location and style of the hotel is superb, beautiful mountain backdrop, a little way from the town, thatched roof, lovely bars and pool etc etc. The room was excellent - an oversized room with muted grey coloured decor - all very tasteful with four poster... more

Lovely hotel full of grace and luxury. A transformation from the old Swiss Farm Excelsior of old. Super pool area, great lounge and spectacular mountain backdrop. Room 25 under the thatch and over-sized was spotless. Not sure why there are bad reviews as I only found this to be pleasurable and would recommend it without reservation. Only had breakfast which... more

We stayed in the villas at Le franschhoek during a conference. The villa looked shabby: chipped tables, stained carpets, loose fittings, broken door handle.The housekeeping was erratic: wet towels were folded and hung back on the rack, others were removed and not replaced, soap was removed and not replaced, sheets were not changed during our 4 night stay, carpets and... more

DON'T STAY HERE!!! I travelled the garden route with my family and stayed in several places on route - this was by far the worst place we stayed in. Service - extremely slow and poor. The hotel staff were unenthusiastic and less than helpful. Breakfast - we were treated like conference delegates! The cooked breakfast was often cold and poorly... more

We enjoyed our stay. Nice decoartion. Our room was small but clean. Hotel is a bit far from town. Staff was friendly. If you like the atmosphere of a bigger hotel - stay here. more

If your going to Franschoek then there is only on place to stay... Le Franschoek. Everything about the place was amzing, from the finish of the hotels rooms, the stunning views and the service from the staff. We only spent 2 nights here but we wished we could have spent 2 weeks!! more

The rooms were wonderful and the backdrop of the mountains is just stunning. The room was clean and everything worked well. The restaurant in the hotel also had stunning views of the valley although we didn't eat there. I can't really comment on service too much as we didn't ask them for much during our 2-day stay although I will... more
