Originally built in 1799 as a private residence, Vineyard Hotel & Spa maintains a gracious manor house feel. This beautifully restored and renovated retreat meanders through 6 acres of landscaped parkland, along the banks of the Liesbeeck River in the leafy Cape Town suburb of Newlands. Bedrooms, suites and cottages offer a diversity of divine views, from a shady Japanese-style courtyard to magnificent Table Mountain. Among three outstanding restaurants is Au Jardin, where you can savor fine French cuisine and superb South African wines.

Well run, relaxing hotel. Room was comfortable and clean. The food was very good, especially the breakfast. The manicured grounds are beautiful and it is a treat to eat outside. This must be one of the last high-end hotels in Cape Town that hasn't been snapped up by a major, international chain. It was a bonus seeing the tortoises, as well as the mother duck diligently taking care of her babies. Use lots of sunscreen at their relaxing pool - the sun really sneaks up on you. Shopping and good restaurants close by. I loved the colonial elegance of the hotel, though a few areas seem to be having an identity crisis between English colonial and contemporary South African styles. Fast wifi.

This is one of my favourite hotels in a lovely location immersed in green with trees, a view of the back of Table mountain, a stream running through the grounds, and even tortoises roaming around. The staff are very friendly and helpful, the food is good and the facilities like 2 pools, a very good gym and a spa make it an oasis of tranquility and calm. The location is good and only 15-20 minutes to the Cape Town waterfront. WE had booked a luxury mountain view room but got an upgrade to a wonderful apartment for 4 nights so it felt like we were in our an villa ! When I return to Cape Town I will definitely stay here again.

Our stay has been nothing but simply amazing. Having a toddler running around with the squirrels, ducks and tortoise was a joyful experience. My "coup de coeur" is Kelsey from Square Restaurant, she has been so helpful and made our experience even more delightful! To all the staffs as well a huge thank you, we will definetely visit again.

Fantastic views. But if you like boutique hotels - as I do - the hotel is not for you. With more than 200 rooms and bus groups a bit too much hectic. Especially at breakfast on a a Sunday morning, where they - surprisingly - also allow external guests, overwhelming the kitchen. Which meant that we waited 40 minutes for breakfast. If management reads this - you might want to reconsider this policy of allowing external guests for breakfast when you are fully booked. Staff, as mentioned by many others here on trip advisor, very friendly and helpful.
