What I can remember the food was well served and presented along with a huge room overlooking the valley. In 33 years it seems that the treatment you give to current guests hasn't change a bit...

My wife (azhootie on tripadvisor) and I stayed at this hotel in February and we were very impressed.

We canceled our reservations in Cape Town to stay longer and enjoy the views, good food, gracious staff and yes, wonderful South African wines. This is a great location to explore the wine country and, we found, an easy way to commute into Cape Town for the city experience too. We decided not to drive and the reservation staff was... More

We stayed at Devon Valley for 4 nights with our 3 kids in two adjoining Vineyard rooms. It was a great base for exploring the Stellenbosch area and some fantastic vineyards (Dornier, Zorgvliet, Guardians Peak, Spier). The hotel has a quaint charm with beautiful, slightly wild gardens and fabulous views. The Vineyard luxury rooms were superb: spacious and well equipped.... More

Last September my sister and I spent three nights in the Luxury Vineyard Room, at this lovely establishment. The room was extremely clean and tidy. The staff were friendly. Beautiful scenery and secluded setting with great views :) We are going back this June, I am excited and am really looking forward to it.
