Happy holiday in Franschhoek.

Friendly, efficient staff, lovely room, excellent location in beautiful Franschhoek, excellent food. Hussars Restaurant has a wide menu and everything we were served was delicious. Great wine range, fair prices and jammed with happy customers, a great vibe.

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful property in a gorgeous town. It was well managed, had a great restaurant attached (that also served breakfast). Rooms were well appointed and huge as were the bathrooms. Overall no complaints, just about perfect.

6/10 Good

Clean and centrally located, but I think I could have found better options if I had done more research. The breakfast was just okay and the hotel experience felt generic.
Nathan, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Hotel is nice but there aren’t enough seating areas around the pool, in particular sun beds. Rooms facing the road are a little noisy and dark. Breakfast area is dated and tired - it’s a nice hotel, polite staff but it’s looking a little dated

Pick a room at the courtyard or at the back. The front rooms are nice but the road can be a bit noisy and there was construction work across the road which did not help
Andrew, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

It is an awesome property, but keep in mind that the Protea Chain in South Africa is not well integrated with Marriott. You need to get a paper receipt and apply for points later.
