The hostess was extremely attentive, from keeping an eye out for us when we arrived to checking on our needs without being at all invasive. We felt really welcome and comfortable. The breakfast is amazing! And extremely generous. Really an unexpected added bonus! Super coffee in the bedroom as well. The room was lovely and warm and the electric blanket was already on when we arrived. Thank you! We were also thoughtfully provided with an umbrella for the duration of our stay. Loved the art as well. I think this will be an amazing place to stay in summer as well, as it has a beautiful swimming pool and outside area. Definitely my go to spot in Franschhoek now!

Nothing not to like.

The room was superb. The pool area was substantial with plenty of optional shade. Good choice of food for breakfast, starting with set continental breakfast followed by cooked options of your choice. All well presented and cooked.

The room we had (Suite 1) was superb, large, well furnished and comfortable. The bathroom, recently refurbished was nicely presented but a few very minor niggles eg. no door hooks, no towel ring near the basin, the basin was obstructing one of the windows and the other window and it’s external shutter wouldn’t shut - this occasionally proved to be a problem regarding privacy. There was also no shaver point, although I didn’t see many of these on our travels around South Africa.

Our stay at this accommodation was simply exceptional! From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the host, whose friendliness and attentiveness truly stood out. The breakfast was a real highlight: top quality, beautifully presented, and made with fresh ingredients. Our room was spacious, spotlessly clean, and tastefully decorated. The entire property reflects a great sense of style and attention to detail. What made it even more special were the beautiful artworks by an African artist displayed throughout the property.

Nothing.

Liked the room with our own separate entrance and close to secure parking. Room was ground floor which was easy with cases etc. The room was huge with a very comfortable bed and a sitting area. One thing to note they only provide Netflix in the rooms no other TV options. Pool area looked lovely but the weather wasn't good enough to use it.

If we stayed in Franschoek again we might chose somewhere a little closer to the Main Street. This wasn’t far out but the walk is uphill on the way back and there weren’t pavements all the way. If you plan to only use a car then this is in a fab location.

Staff are superb, can’t do enough for you. Rooms are extremely comfortable and well equipped . In good location, easy walking distance into the village centre

Although we had a fantastic stay (third visit) the only improvement we could suggest are bigger towels in the bathroom.

The hotel is located in a quiet residential area. Our lovely ground floor bedroom was separate from the main hotel and in the garden with a private furnished outdoor space for relaxing and watching the local birds and Squirrels. Breakfast is a set Continental style with a choice of hot food to follow and was served in the restaurant which has lovely views of the garden and pool.

Breakfast was amazing, great variety. The pool was so nice to relax in, as well as the rooms. It was a very nice, homely and secluded experience. Great location to get to the wineries, but good that you could escape the busy town centre while still being close. The staff were all so amazing and welcoming, could recommend higher.

The location was perfect, a short, safe walk into town made all the amenities available. The room was exceptional and the facilities of the accommodation including the pool were perfect. The staff were brilliant.

The location was amazing! Fantastic breakfast! Loved the pool area. The room was lovely, and they used Rain products was an added bonus - just a nice touch which I really appreciated to make something as small as taking a shower even nicer.

Nothing, everything was fantastic!

We loved the whole experience of our time in Franschhoek. Residence Vive la Vie was the icing on the cake. The staff were obliging, friendly and helpful, the breakfasts were delicious and the accommodation was spacious, clean and comfortable.

Nothing.
