Amazing Property with Excellent interior design of both rooms and lobby / Restaurant It’s a place detox from the world, Where you wake up to the birds chirping and the sound of the river with beautiful meadows surrounding the resort The only negative experience was the check in staff ☹️

We stayed in several hotels this trip, none compared to The Spier hotel. I'm hard to please but this hotel knocked it out of the park. Truly gorgeous and special.

8/10 Very good

Rooms were clean and surprisingly very spacious. Bed was absolutely comfortable. Option to have breakfast in the room was a bonus. Only drawback was staff was not as attentive. Not very welcoming at check-in, service was slow at dinner, overall staff did not come across as friendly. We had to ask for assistance/attention at check in, despite staff seeing us being dropped off with luggage or to be served at dinner and by the pool, which we found to be a bit off putting

Charming luxury family owned hotel and winery.

This is a beautiful hotel, just renovated and reopened in March 2025 in one of Stellenbosch’s oldest wineries. We enjoyed the knowledgeable wine tasting by Sommelier Tyson who also assisted us with a fine wine at the charming open kitchen restaurant. Everything is farm to table, fresh and excellent. Enjoyed the walks and the art installations as well. The service was so outstanding, we only had to mention we needed something to have someone immediately appear to help.

6/10 Good

The hotel is beautiful and has a magnificent garden with a lake, pool, restaurants, bakery, spa, and fine delicacies. The staff is very friendly. Service is rather tedious. There is no concept, which results in long wait times. Those who dislike small children should not come here. It is noisy and shrill due to families with children. It is unfortunate that the staff does not ensure quiet.

Wonderful relaxing holiday

The Spier is a lovely vineyard with good accommodation. They are now starting a complete renovation of the hotel and keeping all their staff on as part of the plan . I have always felt completely safe and cared for within the hotel grounds . A wonderful breakfast in the sunshine is the perfect way to start the day . There are many things to do swimming , cycling , walking , visit the hotel vegetable garden and see the birds enroute . I look forward to visiting Spier next year after its renovation

Fabulous stay- Enjoy!

Fabulous stay, looking forward to returning next year. Very friendly & helpful staff, beautiful grounds with so much to do, stunning art work every where Excellent food & drink everywhere many locally produced. Spacious, immaculate double room, on top of 2 storey block of 4 rooms. Bathroom in our room was vintage in style but well maintained and immaculately clean with double shower, bath and 2 basins. They're undergoing a refurb in March to upgrade these rooms. We had access to 1 off the 6 outdoor pools shared by small group of rooms as well as main hotel pool. Lots to do on site- wine tasting, craft market - run by the artists eagles, Segway tours, river walk, cycling, picnics small well equipped gym, spa also family friendly with a kid's club & play area etc. Enjoy!

A Wonderful Stay

The hotel has just been renovated and you can really tell, everything was beautiful and fresh. The room was lovely, roomy and the bed was very comfortable and it was a pleasant surprise to have a mini-bar with complimentary drinks included. The stay comes with a complimentary wine tasting and I'd recommend taking this, Tyson was so knowledgeable and passionate. We had a LOT of wine tastings while in Stellenbosch and Franschoek and this was the most informative one we had. The breakfast was amazing, a lovely cold spread with a great selection of hot foods and really nice coffee. We didn't eat in the main restaurant as we'd booked a local fine-dining restaurant months in advance and were fine-dining-ed out so went to Vadas, the smokehouse within the hotel grounds for the other night. This is a 5 min stroll and was fantastic, really good smokehouse food with brilliant waiting staff and of course, great wine. The grounds are fantastic for exploring and the pool is a lovely place to while away a few hours with an extensive and well priced food, cocktail and wine list. We would (and hopefully will!) happily return
