Arrived mid-afternoon and started wine tasting. Very pleasant and knowledgeable staff made the experience really nice and we were able to move out onto the terrace to continue with the wines and cheese. We found the breakfasts to be good - plenty of choice and options, and cooked really well to order. The service, especially for providing coffee, could have... More

We stayed here for one night during our trip through the Wine country. The location of the estate is amazing with wonderful views. Very close to Stellenbosch and all the wonderful things the winecountry has to offer. The staff was superfriendly, our room (Franschhoek) large and perfect for our family of 4 (separate bedroom for the parents). Although the restaurant... More

A picture is said to be worth a thousand words. I do believe this to be true, but can be equally deceptive, certainly in the case of Marianne Guest House. While the scenery and the service was worth a thousand words, the same is far from so for the room, certainly Paarl, that's the name of the room. Cheap looking... More

Excellent greeting by local "interns" who were extremely knowledgable about the estate despite only being recently placed. Hopes were high as the reception area is beautifully decorated but disappontment set in when taken to the room up a possibly dangerous external wooden stair. Very basic, sparse and not particularly clean room. However, bed was comfortable with good linen . Pointed... More

The scenery and views round the vineyard are stunning and the service has been some of the most friendly we've had. Of note are Tobias and Andrea who really went the extra mile to ensure our wine tasting and stay overall was thoroughly enjoyable. If you're after a refined chique hotel then this probably isn't it, the rooms are homely... More

I stayed at Marianne this past weekend when my boyfriend and I were touring the Cape Winelands and absolutely loved it. The wine estate is so beautiful and the manor house has a very sleek and modern interior. Also, breakfast which is served in the Manor House was delicious.
