Stillvolles Hotel mit hochwertiger Küche und toller Lage
Pros:

Bereits beim einfahren über die Weinreben in das Areal des Adara bekommt man einen ersten Eindruck von dem sehr gepflegten und stillvollen Hotel. Neben einem sehr freundlichen Empfang und tollem Zimmer hatten wir tolle Tage im Adara. Das Restaurant ist sehr zu empfehlen. Hochwertig gekocht und sehr freundlichen Service. Eine gute Auswahl an Weinen rundeten den Abend ab. Das Frühstück war ebenfalls auf einem sehr guten Niveau. Vielen Dank an das komplette Team für tolle Tage im Adara.

Perfect for a short stay with a very friendly staff, beautiful grounds and accommodations
Pros:

We were on the last night of a three week tour of South Africa. I wanted something near the airport yet still a resort/inn feeling. I would highly recommend staying in Paarl. Our room was gorgeous, very clean, staff very friendly and the grounds stunning. We had dinner which is extra but probably the best meal we ate in three weeks and we had some wonderful dinners. Breakfast was way too much food but excellent and included in the price of the room.

Cons:

It's a 250 year old building that was renovated so the sound proofing isn't perfect and you just have to accept it. Just a personal thing with me and probably wouldn't bother anyone else.

Pros:

Das Adara ist ein sehr schönes Idyll für 3-4 entspannte Tage im Wineland. Das Personal ist super nett, die Anlage top gepflegt und die Zimmer sehr sauber. Man merkt die persönliche Handschrift der Eignerfamilie. Auch der private Pool war täglich im Service, die Sonnenliegen immer vorbereitet.
