The Alphen Boutique Hotel & Spa

Large, comfortable, quiet, very clean room.

Not much not to like. Only gripe was the restaurant service, which on all occasions over 4 days, despite friendly staff and excellent food, took an inordinate time to deliver. So dining experiences were marred.

Overall, very neat and the room was spacious for three of us to stay.

First day or two, room cleaning was not done to the level we were expecting and had to call the cleaning staff to follow up

location is great

little to do

Tout était parfait

This was our last hotel of 6 during a 21 day stay in South Africa - it was easily the best, due to character and charm, very large room, two bathrooms (what a luxury), the spa, both restaurants, the wonderful gardens and the generously sized pool.

The internet was not always up to what I expect these days, but this problem applied to every hotel we stayed in, so I guess it is a network problem.

The hotel is perfect if you’d like smaller boutique style accommodation. We had an upgraded which room was wonderful, large and light. Excellent restaurants with attentive service at all times. The front of house staff, and Hayley and her team, in particular, were wonderful; always looking to help. The garden was such a jewel.

Very little. Ideally at this price point it would have been nice to have an outdoor spa, but not essential. Breakfast was always busy as breakfast at the hotel is obviously a focal point of the local community too. Accordingly, it could be very busy, and a little chaotic.
