Vineyard Hotel & Spa

Classy hotel with tasteful decor that takes you back to the 20s and 30s. Lots of options for dining (huge array of lounges, quiet places, formal dining rooms, alfresco, working rooms with connectivity for business people .. you name it. Excellent food options menu to suit all tastes accompanied by an extensive wine menu. The service is unhurried, efficient and the waiting staff are unfailingly courteous and polite. It's a place you just want to keep coming back to. [Note: Not stayed so can't comment on the accommodation]. Watch out for the tortoises!

If you’re visiting Cape Town then look no further than here. Staying that little bit further out means incredible alfresco dining at breakfast, SPA, superb restaurant (Morii) - as part of your gourmet tour, generous sized beds/rooms and fabulous food and staff. Ubers are also dirt cheap in cape town (less than £5 anywhere) so the beauty of the Vineyard and Newlands gives so much more freedom and luxury, especially when wandering round the city centre beyond the Waterfront at night is perhaps a little unwise. Can’t praise the place highly enough - excellent all round!!!

The Vineyard Hotel is a regular visit for stays in Cape Town. Over the years I have tried many different rooms, most recent one being 166, Francois. This is slightly away from the main hotel on the ground floor with a patio, separate lounge. It has the advantage of corner windows, a view of the gardens, whilst also being slightly quieter as it is removed from the main building. The Room The room is clean and functional, with ample plug sockets, fridge and amenities. It has not been materially upgraded for several years but maintains a crisp clean feel. On previous occasions, the air conditioning had some issues, but this time was quiet and effective. The patio has a small water feature, two outdoor chairs and a small dining area to relax outside. Housekeeping The room has always been cleaned effectively and services such as laundry are always handled swiftly and promptly. Facilities Business people: there are ample locations to have meetings, upstairs, in the lounge or around the various dining areas. The wifi has improved from a very low base but could certainly be upgraded further in terms of base stations and the power of the internet. Do expect slow service in some locations and limited coverage. For tourists, there are many facilities including a separate massage, a spa, the pool is separate and very agreeable, and the outdoor dining areas superb and perfect for a relaxing afternoon tea, dinner or meal. Ambience The property has a period feel, combined with a modern nature and for tourists will be very appealing, whilst for locals it is a popular venue due to its lovely outdoor experience. Team The team are always motivated, positive and helpful, excellent management training and the regular repeat visitors are a testament to their positive mindset. Thank you to the team and management.

This is my sixth visit to this wonderful hotel - previous five were all work related, and now I finally get to holiday here! :) It’s definitely one of my most favourite places in the world… the gardens are unreal, tortoises super cute, the food - breakfast / lunch / dinner all excellent quality and super tasty! I love coming back and would really highly recommend to anyone else to book and experience this place for themselves!

We yet again loved our stay at the Vineyard Hotel. The staff are all excellent and so very friendly. The breakfast as usual was sublime, such a fantastic choice. We eat on the patio under the trees for both lunch and dinner on many occasions and they were both exceptional. The quality of this hotel and the attention to detail is second to none. We have already booked for next year.
