Vineyard Hotel & Spa

The Vineyard Hotel was a great hotel and we enjoyed everything about our stay. The room was large, comfortable and very clean. The bed was extremely comfortable. The restaurant was extensive for breakfast and everything was delicious. The Italian restaurant served excellent food also. The bar and lounge was a perfect place to unwind and relax after a busy day. The grounds of the hotel offer paths through beautiful flowers and even a small stream. I highly recommend this hotel, which is set in a quiet neighborhood, away from the bustle of Cape Town.

My second stay here and just as amazing as my first a few years ago. The food is absolutely incredible some of the best we have had anywhere in the world. The hotel gave us the most incredible packed breakfast for our onwards very early morning journey which outshone any packed meal from a hotel before. They had made warmed wraps filled with scrambled egg etc. pots of yoghurt berry mixes, fruit juices, muffins/pastries! The tortoises roaming the grounds are a highlight too! We had an afternoon tea which was far better than any we had experienced in the UK with lots of courses of beautifully prepared food. Dinner was also fantastic at both restaurants. Such friendly staff. We will definitely be back when next have the opportunity.

Fantastic breakfast and great ambiance throughout. We had a lovely evening meal in a side-room off the main bar: gave us great privacy. Only ‘complaint’: the All-Blacks and their entourage were staying at the hotel for their Cape Town game. So far so good; except their partying woke us up at 1am in the morning and kept us awake for another hour or two; despite closing all our windows (and their loss to the Springboks!).

My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful stay at The Vineyard Hotel recently. We stayed in the Mountain View room and even though it was winter, we had some lovely sunny days and had a gorgeous view of the mountain. The bed was super comfortable and very wide. The excellent team working at the Vineyard helped make our stay memorable and enjoyable. The breakfast is delicious and plentiful with loads of choices. A big must is to find the head gardener and ask him to show you all of the tortoises roaming around the beautiful gardens; one of the tortoises is reputed to be perhaps 200 years old! All in all I would highly recommend this lovely hotel, and a very big thank you to the wonderful, kind and happy staff.

**An Oasis in Cape Town — I Only Wish We Could Have Stayed Longer!** Due to an unexpected flight cancellation, we only had the opportunity to spend two nights at the Vineyard Hotel, but those two nights were absolutely wonderful and left us wishing we had much more time to enjoy this incredible property. The hotel grounds are simply stunning. The walking paths are extensive, beautifully maintained, and provide a peaceful escape right in the heart of Cape Town. One of the most charming and unexpected touches was the resident tortoises roaming the grounds—they added so much character and made our walks even more memorable. Our room was exceptionally spacious, beautifully designed, and incredibly comfortable. If your budget allows, I highly recommend splurging for a mountain-view room. Waking up to those breathtaking views is worth every penny. The interior design throughout the hotel strikes the perfect balance between elegance, comfort, and classic style. The bar was another highlight of our stay. The cocktails were expertly crafted, the atmosphere was sophisticated yet relaxed, and it was the perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring. And then there's the breakfast. I do not say this lightly: the included breakfast was life-changing. It is, without question, the best hotel breakfast I have ever experienced anywhere in the world. The selection was extraordinary, with an incredible variety of options catering to every taste and featuring dishes inspired by multiple cuisines. Every morning felt like a culinary experience in itself, and we found ourselves looking forward to breakfast as much as anything else on the itinerary. The Vineyard Hotel is beautiful, safe, thoughtfully designed, and offers exceptional value for the quality of the experience. We left already talking about when we could come back—and next time, we'll be staying much longer. I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough.
