Wonderful stay, good location and friendly staff.
Pros:

The breakfast was lovely. Great choice of Continetal and hot breakfast.
The little touch with a chocolate every evening on your pillow when you go to bed was special as well as the night cap Sherrie that you could help yourself in the lounge. The atmosphere was homely and warm.
We could not asked for a better location.

Cons:

Unfortunately the beds were a bid worn out. Our two singles mattresses to make a king size bed, felt like we were lying in dip. Not great. The linen and towels were good quality and everything was clean. .
The only concern I had was that the security. My room was made after we left and on our return, our bedroom door was wide open fore everyone to walk in.
I also found the front street security gate at the reception area on numerous occasions standing open. That was a concern.

I loved our stay and highly recommend it!
Pros:

The Batavia Hotel is a little gem in the heart of Stellenbosch. A skip away from the center, with charming, quirky decor, well-appointed rooms, amazingly friendly staff and just a delight all round. I've found my go-to place when travelling to that part of the Cape.

Excelente
Pros:

A acomodação era muito boa e gostei bastante do espaço. O quarto era confortável, com boas instalações, cama confortável e um banheiro excelente. Os funcionários também foram muito educados, atenciosos e prestativos durante toda a estadia.

Como ponto a melhorar, achei que o café da manhã poderia ter mais variedade de opções. Apesar disso, estava gostoso e atendeu bem.

No geral, gostei muito da experiência e voltaria a me hospedar.

Cons:

O café da manhã poderia ter um pouco mais de variedade. Foi o único ponto que senti que poderia melhorar.
