Unbelievable! And something quite special and different. Mindblowing views from each room and a private terrace to boot! We walked out from the lodge to 3 wineries. Lunch, dinner, wine tasting. (We didn’t have a car but uber was totally fine to get around) we went to stellenbosch and Franschhoek to do the wine tram. Could have easily stayed longer: Mountain View’s, sunsets, stargazing all part of the package. Incredible. Thank you Banhoek for a wonderful time x

Feels dated. Needs TLC - from old cracking door to bathroom, cupboards doors to pool area. Needs facelift for the price. The plus side - views are magnificent Breakfast staff were sweet and friendly Ok breakfast. Not much choice on buffet but good choices to order Check in person was not as welcoming

My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon and had the most amazing visit, with a picturesque view overlooking the vineyards. The hotel is in the middle of Banhoek Valley, near fantastic vineyards and a short drive to both Stellenbosch and Franschhoek. Nadia and the rest of the staff were incredibly helpful as we planned our days. Would love to visit again soon

Absolutely loved our stay here, our room was huge and the views were unreal, woke up every day feeling like we were in a dream. Delicious hot breakfast every morning. The cherry on top was the in-room massages we arranged - for sure the highlight of our stay. Highly recommend staying here if you plan on stopping in the winelands for a few days!

This was a last minute book for us but we were so glad we got to stay here. The views from the room were incredible. It was a beautiful hotel and the staff were lovely. The breakfast was also so delicious! And being able to eat outside with the views were just amazing.

Incredible views and quiet (we were the only guests staying there) but despite that we got put in a room right by reception despite asking for another room. We checked out several days early for several reasons mainly due to the fact that this is very much just a Bed & Breakfast- that’s it- which we hadn’t anticipated. Secondly the night receptionist asked us for money which made us feel uncomfortable especially that given reception do the turn down and go into the rooms where all our valuables are. Breakfast was ok but South Africa cuisine and culinary scene is outstanding- this was not anywhere near the same standards as neighbouring hotels. When we asked for the out of hours snacks (off the menu given to us in the room) we were told it wasn’t possible as they hadn’t done a food order. Banhoek could benefit from a proper coffee machine which would really elevate breakfast. And as nice as they were the staff could do with a bit of training- on asking about local attractions, restaurants and wineries- we were given many blank answers and check in was giving us a key- we had to carry own bags (my boyfriend wasn’t able bodied), figure out how things in the room worked ourselves etc - a bit of orientation would have been welcome.

Stunning bedroom views from this lodge and exceptional service and kind attitude from Shannon ! Food was also great. It’s an older lodge that has been upgraded with excellent bathroom fixtures and main bedroom lighting. Wifi is a little slow, early morning hot water taps need to run a bit before hot water arrives and the sliding partition in our room 2 needs to be replaced with a frosted glass door as the current wooden sliding partition is a little stiff to open . Otherwise an excellent choice for your next vacation !

Magnificent view from bedroom. Staff friendly. Rooms are large but a little tired. Need more than one lamp for use during loadshedding. Need to invest in generator or inverter as rooms get very hot if no aircon on during loadshedding.
