We spent a few days visiting the wineries in the area and the hotel is well located to act as a good base, provided that you either have a car or are happy to use the local railway or bus services (the hotel taxis are expensive by Cape standards). Rooms are odd old colonial eclectic mix, getting shabby in places... More

We stayed at Spier for one night in November as one of the first stops in a three month round-the-world trip from which we've just returned. We've stayed at 43 different venues over that time but Spier still ranks highly and good value for the quality of its facilities. Our room was located close to the main hotel and was... More

We stayed her in January 2012 as part of a three week trip to celebrate our 30th Wedding Anniversary. From our arrival we were treated to exceptional service by everyone involved, from the friendly and informed reception staff through the housekeeping staff that we passed on our way to and from our room. Our room was enormous and beautifully appointed.... More

This hotel was in a lovely setting.It is close to a busy road but most of the accommodation in away from it - I wouldn't have liked to sleep in the first "block." The room was large and spacious - the only criticism I would have was of the shabby floor. There were several cracks in the flooring which had... More

The rooms at Spier are lovely, and set in Mediterranean style villas - some around swimming pools. The trouble is that over the years Spier has got bigger and bigger and the old historic buildings have been swamped by the 'theme park' elements, like Moyo's restaurant. The hotel seems to cater more for corporate events. Also the service is rather... More

I am not an activity holidaymaker - particularly in temperatures of 30+. So the fact that Spier offered so many lovely places - in the room, the hotel and the grounds - to just sit, enjoy the view and have a glass of the excellent (and by UK standards very inexpensive) house wines, made it a very agreeable place to...

We had a very pleasant week at the Spier hotel. The location is excellent being less than an hour from Cape Town but also centrally located for the Wine Farms of the Stellenbosch area and the wonderful beaches close by. We stayed in one of the suites, the rooms are of a good size, were clean and tidy with a... More

Although we arrived to Spier to find the Fish Braai canceled, we were readily accommodated and taken great care of by Mr. Johnathin Suckers. Johnathin went to great lengths to accommodate our needs…even to have the braai brought out and started up for us since we were looking for the “braai experience in South Africa.” Everyone was very friendly and...
