Overall Ratings & Reviews Avondrood Guest House

I can't say enough good things about our stay. The staff was phenomenal. So very welcoming and helpful with ideas for spending our time in Franschhoek. Our room was beautiful, large and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious with many choices. The location is in town within walking distance to many shops, restaurants and the wine tram. Highly recommend Avondrood Guest House.

Fantastic place to stay in Franshhoek, beautiful big rooms with all the amenities you could need and a short walk to the cafes and restaurants. The staff are super helpful and available 8am-8pm for anything you could need. Will definitely be back!

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

Perfect location and the highest quality of hospitality that we have ever experienced. Our private room was immaculate and extremely comfortable. We will return.

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.

Such an enjoyable stay. Well looked after by the hosts. Couldn’t fault it!

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!

Beautiful rooms, perfect location and helpful, friendly staff.

Lovely stay. Best bed ever

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

Extremely satisfied with the professional staff and management. Beautiful room and settings. Breakfast was the best in a amazing dinning area.

An absolutely amazing guesthouse in a brilliant location. There were no negatives and everything was perfect!

Beautiful, comfortable and relaxing. Convenient for wine tram

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!

Very comfortable guest house, spacious room with character, beautiful garden and elegant lobby area. Very helpful team with plenty of useful suggestions.

Professionally run - just the right amount of help and attention - Rooms are beautiful

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!

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.

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!!

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.
