Top Franschhoek Hotel Reviews

Franschhoek Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very friendly and helpful staff in an excellent location, minor points a second chair in the room would be useful and the sink is quite small. But overall enjoyable and Peter and Storm are lovely."

Maison d'Ail

8/10 Good

"A nice guest house."

Le Petit Paris

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful location. Incredible staff. Lovely breakfast."

Franschhoek Country House and Villas

10/10 Excellent

"If you are in Franschhoek highly recommend this property which is very central and very close to all the cafe and restaurants and shopping, they provide shuttle to the tram train. The staff were wonderful and super helpful! We had an amazing time. I have been to 30 countries and the staff from this hotel went beyond my expectations."

The Ivy Apartments

8/10 Good

"The apartment at The Ivy is a wonderful "home away from home" . The location is perfect as it is on the main road where you can shop, eat & browse. The apartment is serviced every day & the staff are unobtrusive , giving you time to laze around in the morning before they come. This property would probably have earned 5 stars , if not for 2 minor downfalls : 1. There are no flat/top sheets on the beds. Given the heat of Franschhoek, it would be great to have the option of only covering oneself with a sheet; 2. The apartment which we had stayed in window blinds are not easy to open & close. The one blind to the balcony couldn't close & the light from the signage outside "The Ivy" shines rights into the Main bedroom. I think that even with the blinds closed, it would still shine through. Overall though, this a fantastic property choice for a weekend away or even for tourists. It is tastefully furnished & the owners have definitely thought of almost everything ."
