We, husband and wife in our sixties and from Wales, UK, spent three weeks holiday at the Vineyard Hotel. I could repeat so many positives mentioned on this site but will stick to just saying how impressed we were with the running of the hotel and the great attitude of its employees. Every member of staff we encountered treated us... More

When you read my reviews you will see I am fair and equal. I understand you can't expect the same things from a $100 room versus a $500 room hotel. Here's the positives. Location. It's spectacular to look out the window and see the mountains. The windows open so you can hear water from the garden and fresh air. The... More

Thank you so much for your review. "Music for my soul" is just so apt, especially if one is sitting on the patio looking at the mountain. Looking forward to having you back soon. Kind Regards Roy Davies More

My husband and I stayed at the Vineyard for a combined business and leisure weekend in Cape Town. Excellent service from attentive staff. The garden is just spectacular and the room was lovely. Will most certainly visit again.

I'm usually not a fan of independent properties--after all, I have no elite status so no perks! Despite my reservation, the Vineyard Hotel & Spa turned out to be one of the most memorable stays I have had to date. We were upgraded to a renovated Courtyard Deluxe room and it couldn't have been more magnificent! Located in the new... More

This is the first time we have stayed at this hotel although we have eaten in the restaurant several times. Each time we visit we agree that the location is superb and the grounds are enchanting.

Can't imagine a better place to stay in Cape Town, under the mountain and round the corner from Kirstenbosch botanical gardens. Friendly and (with the odd exception) extremely helpful staff, excellent airy rooms with bath and shower, gorgeous view of Table Mountain.

This hotel is beautiful, it has a big history which they are proud of, and rightly so. The rooms however are big, modern and very tastefully decorated.
