Great location and very friendly staff. Loved the recommendations for food. The rooms are a little dated though and the family cottage had 2 bedrooms but a shared bath - small detail but would have made a huge difference.

Beautiful Hotel

I liked the old world charm of the hotel. The rooms had Victorian vibe and was a joy to enter. My corner room on the 2nd floor had mountain views - really loved it. Breakfast had options of cooked eggs - enjoyed my poached eggs . The dining room staff were cheerful and friendly - this made a good start to my mornings. Location was accessible to city area for food and galleries. Check out GINO's restaurant for good pizza and pasta plus cheap wines. Really liked this joint!

Wonderful Hotel

It was an excellent boutique hotel, the family room was fantastic. The location is just a stone throw away from the best restaurants and pubs. The staff was polite and helpful, the homemake breakfast just reminds me of home.

New Scenery after two weeks at Sea Point,CapeTown

My daughter and I had to get out of our Condo in CapeTown but could not get a reservation back to Denver, CO for a couple of days as it was the end of Thanksgiving week. We decided to go to Stellenbasch and spend a couple days traveling around the area of the Wine Country. The Guest House was ideal for what we wanted to do which was relax, be able to walk most everywhere, have a swimming pool to rest and enjoy the warmth of being below the Equator in addition to doing a little wine tasting. A delightful and quaint place to stay and the rooms were spotless even with the age of the Guest House. The breakfasts were the best we had on the entire trip especially in terms of quality. They fixed what ever one would want to eat in addition to other cultural breakfast items daily. I can't say enough about the staff and personal. They were friendly and helpful in a very genuine way. They have a room with a shower for those that have late flights and a place to leave the luggage. As our flight was a very late one we spent the time walking around the town, picking up a few pieces of jewelry,( for memories) lunch and people watching for a couple of hours. A delightful place to stay and reminded me of staying in Guest Houses in London in the 60's. I would definitely return to stay at the Fynbos Villa again if in the area. Attracts such friendly guests! s our flight was a late one in CapeTown so we hung around Stellenbasch walked around, had lunch and picked up a few souvenirs.
