We stayed here for 3 nights in a petite garden suite. We did have some maintenance problems with the room. On arrival, the plug in the second wash basin would not stay down so we asked for it to be fixed. When we came back later, the maintenance man had just swapped them over on the two sinks so now the other sink would not hold water! We were tired & went to bed at 9.45 pm. At 10pm the upper floor guests came home and switched something on that caused a loud rumbling noise in our room.By...

We enjoyed our stay here, the room was comfortable and we were well looked after. Our room was up stairs and a slightly awkward space, but it goes with a characterful old building and was not a problem.The breakfast was extremely good.

Big room with many thoughtful features and a great breakfast. The hotel has two pools (one heated) and a fabulous onsite restaurant (fine dining quality). We made use of the free shuttle to ferry us to the wine tram.

Amazing little find. The reviews are true and this place really is spectacular. We were blown away with the size of the room which was a little villa with our own garden area. We travelled as a small family and just loved how accommodating this hotel was. I just wished I could have stayed longer!

Lovely if brief stay at Asara - nice big comfortable room overlooking the lake. Huge selection at the buffet breakfast. Nice walks through the vineyards with stunning views. We had a very enjoyable meal at Sansibar with delicious gin cocktails. The complimentary wine tasting was great fun too! All staff were welcoming and helpful. Special thanks for Serge for fixing the number plate that had fallen off our hire car!

Rooms are fantastic we had room one which didn’t have a door to the bathroom although it was separate so know your partner very well with this room!
Everything is fabulous- the rooms the service the food ( breakfast was excellent) . We then went to the wine tasting which was excellent and a bit of a revelation. We would not hesitate to come back

My husband and I spend out last two nights at Majeka House and couldn't have been been better taken care of. Majeka is a truly luxury boutique hotel - in a sea of copy cats, they are highly original. The design is super fun and every detail has been thought through. The food at Makaron - the in house restaurant - is some of the best in the country. And the wine selection is incredible (thanks Esmy). We had a room with a semi-private pool - super comfy and they think of everything. Service is...

This is a wonderful hotel. The staff, scenary, furniture, rooms and food are all wonderful. Highly recommended. Only gripe was that the pool was on the cool side, although this is true of hotels across South Africa. Franshhoek is a picturesque location, with great restaurants and relaxed vibe. You really need a car to explore the area, and will need to drive from town to the hotel (only 5 minutes, but too far to walk).
