Great location, a few minutes walk from town. Beautifully decorated and helpful staff who made sure we had breakfast items in our room bc we had to leave at 5:55am. The sit down breakfast was huge with a starter of meats, cheeses, croissants that my wife said were like being in France, ‘to die for’ then eggs Benedict or any style you like. Comfortable beds with heated blanket.

Overall a nice stay and will come back. Parking was outside on the street. No option to book inside parking on hotels.com site, but it was safe. Room was spacious and comfortable. Bathroom a little dated showing wear and tear (cracked walls). Breakfast was excellent! Complimentary Netflix and good wifi.

Best breakfast bathroom. Beautiful property. Friendly, helpful staff.

Loved our one night stay at Residence Vive last Vie. Just wish we could have stayed longer. Our suite was large, beautifully decorated and comfortable. The breakfast was superb, all freshly prepared and cooked to order. The gardens were immaculate, with a lovely pool and plenty of loungers. Finally, the staff were all very welcoming and helpful. Highly recommended!

A stunning place to stay. Great location, very quiet but near the centre of town as well. The breakfast was great and the garden and pool were a really bonus.

Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit dort. Frühstück war Top und sehr liebevoll - das Personal ist einfach super lieb! Ausgangspunkt war für uns perfekt, wir konnten viel zu Fuß erreichen und das Auto blieb stehen

This a small but very comfortable base to explore Franschhoek. It's a short walk to the wine tram. Staff were friendly. Would happily stay here again.

Excellent location! Easy to walk to dinner and the wine tram. Hosts were great. Breakfast was a real treat!

This place is truly outstanding. From the welcome you get at the door to the beautiful rooms and breakfast. I challenge anyone not to go wow!

Beautiful room, clean, nice garden with a pool good for relaxing in the afternoon. Friendly staff and a super breakfast

Clean spacious accommodation in good location. The pool and garden were well maintained and pleasant. What let it down was the breakfasts. There are a lot of good bakeries around but we were served ultra processed cheap bread. No jams or butter on the table. It just lacked a few touches which would have made it very good.

Dejlige faciliteter - dejlig stort værelse på et lille hyggeligt boutique hotel godt beliggende i Franschoek by. Stille og rolige omgivelser. God atmosfære på stedet. Meget venligt og hjælpsomt personale og guesthouse manager. Desuden en dejlig lækker morgenmad.

We had a really lovely stay at Vive. The room was really big and the bed so comfortable. Breakfast each morning was excellent and the staff were so attentive and efficient. Nice little seating area by the pool. Great location for restaurants, coffee shops and the main wine tram station.

Rooms clean and spacious

The room was really special, with beautiful artwork on the walls and a really lovely layout. The room was very spacious and it was very quiet around us.

Struttura tenuta benissimo con camere spaziosissime (le definirei suite). Unica pecca prese di corrente mal dilocate nella camera per evenuali cariche batterie (Fotocamere, cellulari, PC, rasoi, ecc.)

Superb guesthouse. Excellent team. Superior in every way. Thank-you!

Beautiful room, spacious with lovely furnishings and touches. Tea and coffee making facilities- a must for us. Lovely, friendly owner, manager and staff. Very friendly and interesting conversations

Fabulous property set behind secure gates with onsite parking. Close to The Wine Tram and walking distance to Franschhoek. Lovely contemporary spacious bedroom with modern sculptures and beautiful pictures. Lovely comfortable bed with fluffy towels and nice toiletries. Breakfasts each morning were delicious which set us up for the rest of the day. Good, healthy choices of hot and cold selections. All made to order. Very friendly staff and very helpful host. Very relaxing and enjoyable stay. Highly Recommended.

Das Viva la Vie ist ein sehr schönes, kleines Hotel, das perfekt gelegen ist, wenn man die Wine-Tram nutzen möchte. In nur 10 Minuten ist man zu Fuß an der Haltestelle. Die Zimmer sind sehr schön eingerichtet und groß. An manchen Stellen ist die Eineichtung ein bisschen in die Jahre gekommen. Einiges könnte ausgebessert werden. Es ist allerdings alles absolut vertretbar. Das Frühstück ist fantastisch und das ganze Team ist super freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Der Pool hätte ein kleines bisschen sauberer sein können, aber da wir eh nur einen Tag da waren, haben wir ihn ohnehin nicht viel genutzt. Wir können diese Unterkunft daher absolut weiterempfehlen.
