Reviews for Mont Rochelle

Heaven on earth!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 days ago

This place is heaven on earth!!! My partner and I stayed for one night and unfortunately we couldn’t get two nights as it was fully booked the following night. What can I say? From the moment we parked our car staff were there to help us with our bags. We were given a welcome drink of our choice and told to relax while our bags were brought to our room. The room and view from the room was breathtaking as are all views from anywhere in Mont Rochelle. Our breakfast was superb - a great selection and we also went wine tasting to the country kitchen which was a relaxing experience (no pressure or hard sell from any staff we were left to enjoy the wine and view - we did purchase some wine though as it was well priced and to our taste) Last but not least - THE STAFF - they are the cream of the crop!!! We have stayed at other vineyards and never have we been treated or looked after so well as we were in Mont Rochelle. Big shout out to Fredd, Clinton, Vivian and there was a lovely van driver also but I’ve forgotten his name. These guys make Mont Rochelle what it is! We felt welcomed and nothing was too much hassle. They always had a smile on their faces and were so lovely to chat to, friendly and helpful. We also missed wine tasting on day 1 and on check out day they still organised it for us. These guys make Mont Rochelle what it is. Please treasure them as staff like these guys are worth their weight in gold. We will be back!

Beautiful hotel stunning views

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 4 days ago

The hotel is seperate form the Wine tasting so it's very peaceful. The views are incredible. The property is stunning. We had a Shiraz room with a beautiful view of the valley. We spent two afternoons by the pool.. the pool guy was very attentive. They run a shuttle service into town which is very efficient.

Stunning suite, beautiful setting

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

We had two nights here as part of our Winelands tour. We had room 27 which is probably the best in the whole hotel with a separate living room, huge bedroom and bathroom topped off with a private plunge pool and two beds with views over the Franshhoeck mountains. It was one of the best rooms we have had. The hotel provides a complimentary wine tasting, three bottles of wine in the room and a complimentary mini bar. Service is exemplary and in Peter he is a larger than life character who only has your welfare at heart. We ate out first night - with a complimentary shuttle into town and back. We ate in Miko our last night and the food is very good. Overall it is a very chilled location with a lovely pool, immaculate grounds and fab staff. Shout out to Chelsea Fred in the bar for his wonderful service and great sense of humour.
