I'm not sure why this place had such great reviews. We stayed here for 2 nights during our honeymoon in May. The location is supurb and I do appreciate the property's beauty and history but... rooms - uhm... my husband and I are not large people... We booked one of the larger rooms (I think most rooms are "larger" and... More

I have just returned home after 6 days at this hotel........long enough to get a real impression! Its true the rooms are a little on the small side but the bathrooms are spacious. Nice and quiet (room 16). You can step outside the hotel and you are in the best part of Stellenbosch, loads to see (great little shops, cafe's... More

This hotel is hard to fault. Warm, friendly welcome. Charming, helpful staff. Great food and atmosphere. The room was small, but cosy and complete. Great to see that wi-fi is included too. The hotel is located in a quiet street near the centre of Stellenbosch within easy walking of lots of restaurants.

Lovely little hotel in the centre of town. Surrounded by outdoor cafes/restaurants, gift stores, galleries very up market. Beautiful town with lovely oak lined narrow one way streets, and yes parking meters. But the hotel does have secure underground parking. The only thing being you have to double park in front of the hotel in the narrow street because you... More

At Coopmanhuijs we arrived after a 11 hours flight and it was the warmest welcome one can imagine: a glass of wine and a plate with different cheeses, some fruit and ham. Just to make us feel at home and not to let us go and sleep on an empty stomach. The service in general made us feel special. The... More

Our one night stay was too short. However we were warmly welcome from Wonder and his colleages. Elizabeth was very kind and flexible and offered us a late check out as our plane was late at night. This small city is safe and offer you a great variety of Restaurant, Wine bars and nice shopping for African Souvenirs. Thank you... More

Third time in Stellenbosch, first time at Coopmanhuijs, and I will return. We had rooms at the front of the hotel and I don't remember being given the choice to upgrade to a room around the pool, which does not mean it did not happen. However, when I return I will require a room at the back to be more... More

Our friends were dropping us off at the hotel, after a long Garden Route trip. We had a triathlon bike, IronMan gear and four cases of wine with us, with no drop off spot in front of the hotel. By the time we had unloaded our luggage a few meters down the street, a staff member had noticed our plight... More

Helenas Restaurant at the Coopmanhuijs Boutique Hotel and Spa is a welcome break after too many too predictable lunches and dinners. Excellent food, excellent wine with extremely good service is what this restaurant is about. We thoroughly enjoyed it and will take the drive back to Stellenbosch for just this experience. Well done to a establishment that is head and... More
