Noisy fridge.
I am a light sleeper and was kept awake by refrigerator motor stopping and starting. The fridge was stupidly situated right next to the bed. I do not think that the fridge was faulty.

Well positioned “boutique” style hotel
Lovely, almost boutique hotel very well positioned on the end of Franschhoeks Main Street. Hotel is two story with rooms largely overlooking a central pool/garden court yard Hotel has its own gated secure free parking. Adjoining the hotel is the Hussar Restaurant which is well worth trying although, like many of the more popular restaurants in Franschhoek is busy and booking is recommended. I would thoroughly recommend the hotel.

It was my first time to South Africa, the receptionist and manager of the hotel helped me feel safe and welcomed. We arrived late due to delay and the receptionist was friendly, telling us where we can go to stretch our legs. When I asked if I can move the swing chair to outside my room, the manager offer to get the guard to help me. The place is lovely and I will definitely go back again.

Perfect Hotel for a Wine Weekend
Beautiful hotel in the heart of Franschhoek. I wish I had time to stay longer and relax at the pool. It is an easy walk to everything in the main area Franschhoek and a quick uber ride to the all of the wineries. I could not recommend this hotel more.

Clean and centrally located, but I think I could have found better options if I had done more research. The breakfast was just okay and the hotel experience felt generic.

Pick a room at the courtyard or at the back. The front rooms are nice but the road can be a bit noisy and there was construction work across the road which did not help
