Spier Hotel Stellenbosch - South Africa

Spier Hotel Stellenbosch is set on a privileged location in a wine growing facility overlooking the mountain range of the Helderberg, just steps away from the riverbanks of the Eerste. It is ideal for vacationers looking to learn a thing or two about the wine making industry. Educational and formal wine tasting programmes are provided to guests at the Wine Shop, which is notable for being housed in a mid-18th century barn. The property itself consists of Mediterranean village style structures and is arranged to form private courtyards with their own swimming pools. Walking and horseback riding areas are also located within the property.

Number of Rooms: 151

At the Spier restaurant guests can enjoy mouth-watering breakfasts and dinners prepared with only the freshest Cape produce. Views from the restaurant are of the estate and the surrounding Helderberg Mountains. The hotel also has a very contemporary and stylish wine Bar adjacent to the restaurant offering light, tasty and healthy meals, wines and coffees. Both the restaurant and wine bar have outdoor terraces where guests can sit in the sun or shade. The Jonkershuis is another excellent restaurant offering a la carte South African meals which can be enjoyed inside, out on the shaded terrace or in the gardens alongside the Eerste River. Moyo is one of South Africas most famous restaurant brands and offers an unforgettable evening under the southern stars, with its sumptuous buffet and vibrant live entertainment daily.

Recently refurbished, the large lobby entrance is bright and inviting with a large U-shaped reception desk to the right as you enter. The work of local South African artists hangs from the walls and the hotel bar is immediately in front of you as you enter the lobby.

Built in traditional Cape style the hotel is spread out over a wide area and resembles a small village. The rooms are split between 6 buildings, all of which are no longer than 2 storeys high and peach in colour.
