The Spier Hotel

I stayed here for a wedding and had an absolutely amazing stay. The staff were so kind and helpful and the room was the best I have stayed in…ever. I always struggle with triple rooms because I always find the room becomes cramped and more claustrophobic with the additional bed, but not here. It still had so much floor space, which was great with all the luggage. Also having our own garden area and shared pool was lovely, alongside the double sinks in the bathroom. I honestly could not have asked for more. The decor was quaint and fitting. I also went to the spa which was a treat. I’m not much of a wine drinker which is a shame as thats what Stellenbosch is known for, so the complimentary bottle on arrival sadly went to waste. It was a wonderful touch though!

We loved Spier Hotel. I was a little suspicious as I don't like big commercial resorts/wine farms, but Spier Hotel was absolutely perfect; we booked for Easter Weekend and there were so many things to do for kids. The staff were really good. We had a riverside terrace room, beautiful big room; the bathroom is a little dated but totally adequate, and a good powerful shower! We could hear the people in the room upstairs, especially when they were moving chairs etc...but it wasn't too bad (and I usually hate neighbouring noise!). The bottle of wine in the room was a nice touch, as well as a little easter egg hamper for our daughter. The estate itself is just stunning, very well kept grounds, beautiful walks and if you have time, get free bikes at reception and do the 5km ride around the grounds early morning, it's so beautiful! Night market was a nice little bonus too. All in all, we would not hesitate to book this hotel again!

Beautiful accommodation and amenities. Great food and wine

The Spier is one of my favourite hotels when I want to be just part of the countryside and away from the bustle. 2 days in Camps bay, 2 days in Spier - perfect.

The whole property, especially the grounds are even more impressive and well maintained than the last time I was there. Great staff, and room. The Veda restaurant is delicious and the setting is magical. I've been coming to the Spier for years and it never dissapoints. The buffet breakfast is always a highlight!

The rooms are grubby, run down, bath and basins scratched and unappealing. Breakfasts were completely unappetising - passed on day 2. Would have left straight after checkin if i could have been refunded. Could have got better at half the price.

Absolutely amazing for families! Our kids didn’t want to leave.

Spier is absolutely phenomenal. From the friendly and extremely helpful staff, wonderful meals, spacious rooms, to wine tasting and beautifully kept grounds, everything at Spier is a great experience. We would like to express our gratitude for Spier's support in a moment of crisis where we received so much support that made us feel less stressed. The staff genuinely care about their visitors, making the stay very enjoyable and memorable. We will be back for sure!

Excellent service from all staff except one.

Thank you for a wonderful stay at the Spier Hotel. My wife and I and our 8-month old baby spent a leisure weekend at the hotel. Everything was in order from the moment we checked in, and all the staff very friendly and helpful. A baby cot was already in place without any requests being made from our side. The restaurants on site including Vadas and the pop-up store were phenomenal. Dining at the hotel restaurant was fantastic and the continental breakfast included a nice spread. A specific word of appreciation to the hotel managers, Bridget and Jillian and the waitress Lusanda who tried everything possible to accommodate us and our 8-month baby. The rooms were clean and the various walks/views picturesque. The avaiability of various on-site activities including the wine tasting/ animal encounters/ segway tours definitely adds to the experience. A truly enjoyable getaway.
