I was truly captivated by the stunning views over the vineyards to Franschhoek from this hotel. The rooms are spacious, beautifully appointed, and spotlessly clean, offering superb views of the surrounding mountains. The service was exceptional, with staff going above and beyond to make my stay special. The dining experience was mostly delightful, although the quality of the children's evening meal left a bit to be desired. The facilities were top-notch, providing a truly magical experience overall.
