Lanzerac Beautiful grounds and setting and a very peaceful spot. Service is generally excellent - and breakfast is delicious. We enjoyed the food in the Taephus Restaurant more preferable than Manor Kitchen .(everything seemed to have sugar/something sweet in it which we don't like) Our room was lovely and not too noisy despite being near the outside pool. It is a very relaxed and peaceful spot, easy drive or Uber into Stellenbosch (it's not walkable really). Staff are generally very helpful and polite. Outside pool is busy if it's the weekend or school holidays- but outside of these times it's great. Gym disappointing - very small (hence prob why you can't find any information or photo on website) - and only one treadmill which everyone wants to use pre 10am. Pre-breakfast it was mobbed, hard to find a space, and no chance of getting to use treadmill....however, running outside locally was very safe so there are options. If you are picking a hotel on gym facilities this is not the one.

The most amazing service from every single person - completely unprompted and above snd beyond- and so friendly. The three restaurants are all lovely- sushi at the spa delicious. Enjoyed the personal wine tasting and just relaxing by the very quiet pool. The highlight of our trip. Thank you.

Our room was exceptionall. The hotel staff managed to achieve the difficult balance of relaxed attentiveness and friendliness. We loved the Deli and the Manor Kitchen. The Prestige Pinotage was off the scale but all of the wines were superb.

THIS IS A LARGE SLICE OF HEAVEN This is perfection. The hotel is beautiful and is kept immaculate by the lovely housekeeper staff. Our room 202 is beautiful, large with a most comfortable Emperor size bed. The bathroom is large and beautifully appointed. There is a lovely private patio outside with very comfortable chairs and a settee. There is a private swimming pool shared by just 4 rooms. The housekeeping led by the wonderful Gwen and her deputy Marietta is absolutely superb. Been and her staff see to our every need. Any and every laundry requirement or stain removal is no problem to this expert team (led by Gwen). Every single member of staff is always smiling and greets us by name. We like a particular table outside for breakfast and linen napkins and every day that table is reserved for us with our linen napkins. I just want to mention the lovely Mona, Bongi, and Romeo but all of the waiting staff are so lovely and attentive. They are lovely people and superbly trained. Chef will make anything we ask for. The dining facilities are fantastic with a choice of restaurants and fine dining. The staff are led by two great leaders Tiaan and Nathan who make sure everything runs smoothly so that we have a memorable and luxurious rest. We enjoy every moment of our 10 day stay every year. Of course I must mention the wine. The Lanzerac Estate makes the most superb wines. Their lunch restaurant and tasting rooms are quite superb. I cannot praise enough this lovely hotel and its staff. Thank you for another fantastic visit. We have booked already for 2026!

They upgraded our room to the most beautiful suite. Staff were brilliant, service superb and the hotel is just a wonderful place to spend some down time. We will be back in the winter.

Home away from home The Lanzerac continues to provide our family with a home away from home and a wonderful base in the Cape. The staff are warm and welcoming and the facilities are excellent. The Taphuis has the best burgers in Stellenbosch!

Excellent service in a tranquil oasis A very unique and special experience- all staff delivered exceptional service. The rooms are luxury, with all the necessary modern amenities, resulting in an unforgettable stay. A true example of South African hospitality.
read moreread lessO1740ZBchris2/14/2025Average food/ fantastic location. A little underwhelmed by the restaurant. Fantastic location/ visuals good. Food a little disappointing- my partner had the vegan option which was aubergine based and poorly cooked. Hoping for the “wow” factor… but it never came.

The staff were always friendly and helpful. We tried the wine tasting which was very good and enjoyed the informative and fascinating cellar tour. Restaurant was good and we would definitely return.
