Gehobenes, zentral gelegenes Hotel
Pros:

gepflegtes Hotel in bester Lage, freundliches Personal. Valletparking funktioniert reibungslos. Kleiner Pool im Garten. Umfangreiches Frühstück. Gute Wahl für ein paar Tage Stellenbosch

Cons:

Hotelbar schließt offiziell um 23 Uhr - leider gabs bereits ab 22:30 nach dem Dinner keinen Drink mehr - schade, wäre ein toller Ausklang gewesen

Leider keine Empfehlung mehr
Pros:

Zentrale und ruhige Lage
Gutes Frühstück
Valid Parking
Personal sehr gemischt

Cons:

Obwohl Monate im voraus gebucht und trotz separater Anfrage war das Personal nicht in der Lage oder willens, einen Twin Room zu reservieren. Bei 270 Euro pro Nacht! war auch ein kleiner Balkon nicht möglich!
Vor drei Jahren haben wir uns hier deutlich wohler gefühlt.
