Our 4th stay at this outstanding guest house! Beautiful rooms, lovely breakfast, beautiful gardens. What makes this place special though is the people. Karloff, Juvelie and Jamie-Lee were incredible together with Justin. My husband was taken seriously ill as we arrived and eventually had to be hospitalised. They looked after me as a family would. They went well beyond the call of duty and checked up on me constantly We will hopefully be returning when my husband is better. The nicest place in beautiful Franschhoek by far
Beautiful grounds

A true gem that I would highly recommend to anyone planning their stay in Franschhoek. Beautifully decorated and in an immaculate condition property with incredibly friendly staff. Book Mountain View suite and you won't regret. And don't forget to ask Karloff (who is exceptional) for best local tips and recommendations.

We chose to stay here again after an amazing first visit in Nov 2022. Justin Mitchell, who I understand is Operations Director for the entire hotel group (Oyster Collection), was brilliant, as always. From my first email to him, months before we arrived, to saying goodbye at the end of our visit. His staff are well informed, attentive, yet beautifully informal in their approach. It remains one of the nicest places my husband & I have ever stayed in. We can't wait to come back!

Considering the fact that we have booked the hotel only 15 minutes before arriving, everything was perfect from start to finish. Extremely friendly staff and feeling like we’re at home from the moment we walked in. Room was ready within minutes (despite the spontaneous arrival) though we would have happily waited longer as the host Justin has poured us a nice and chilled glass of wine and allowed us to settle. And what a host he was! Justin has helped us organise the whole stay, made fantastic recommendations on things to do and even assisted with dinner bookings in fantastic places. Truly a wonderful stay and close to everything you need, restaurants, wine tram and vineyards! Huge thank you and we definitely will be coming back sooner than we expected! Paulina and J

Justin and his staff were absolutely amazing. The guesthouse is so quaint and in the most perfect part of town close to Main Street and the wineries. Only wish we could have stayed in Franschoek longer! Will definitely be back and would recommend this guesthouse to anyone going!! Yummy breakfast and great tips from the staff. They were really the best part about our stay!

The room was gorgeous and expansive with a wonderful bathroom. The breakfast was excellent and location perfect for exploring the quaint little town. The owner was very helpful and welcoming. Beautiful!

10/10

Lovely character hotel with welcoming staff. We had 2 nights there you could probably do with 3 nights if you do the wine tram tour and also want to have a good look around franschhoek.

10/10

Beautiful, clean hotel with awesome breakfast and fantastic staff! Will certainly use this hotel again when we have a chance to come back to Franschhoek!!

10/10

Lovely Guest House with large beautifully furnished rooms. Very nice garden with swimming pool. The staff are wonderful and bend over backwards to make your stay as perfect as possible. They are all extremely helpful with recommendations for restaurants and days out to vineyards etc. Justin is a wonderful host and we are hoping to come back and visit again.

10/10

We loved every aspect of our stay from the room to the grounds and great staff. The location was great - walk anywhere in town but one block off the Main Street so a little quieter. We would definitely come back.

10/10

We got a really warm welcome from Justin and Anna and things just went on from there for our 3 night stay . Lovely room , beautiful gardens , great breakfasts and always friendly help on hand to help make the most of our time in Franschhoek. Justin organised all our dinner bookings and we therefore went to some really nice and hard to get places ( especially Foliage). Staying at Avondrood was great choice and we just loved Franschhoek with its stylish charm , fantastic vinyards and lots to see and do. Thanks Justin , Anna and all the team at Avondrood.

10/10

Lovely hotel with fabulous hosts, close to the village so an easy stroll to the shops and restaurants.

10/10

We are seasoned travellers and it takes a bit to impress us - but we were certainly impressed in Avondrood. Everything about it is absolutely perfect, from super convenient location walking distance to the centre with numerous restaurants and hop-on point for the winery tram tour, through private parking, and a lovely room with an absolutely gorgeous bath (after a month of travels and just showers, it was truly indulging to jump in!). But it is the staff that really stand out - from the moment of our arrival Anna and Justin could not be any more helpful, be it booking a restaurant, advising on activities in the area, or arranging a last minute massage (I was desperate with pain in my neck/shoulder, and it was not easy to find a slot on such a short notice that wouldn't ruin our plans for the day - but Justin managed to - thank you!). You truly feel that you're a treasured guest, and that they take pride in taking good care of you. Oh, and let's not forget the absolutely fantastic breakfast - with a great choice of high quality items, hot and cold, and of course everything served with a smile. We stayed 2 nights but we loved it so much (including the beautiful area) that we'd recommend staying a bit longer if you can. If we're ever back in the area, we'd definitely stay in Avondrood again.
