"A Memorable Stay"

10.0

It is a fabulous boutique hotel. Declan and the team went beyond expectations, making sure everything was on hand with fantastic attention to detail. Breakfast was indeed legendary. We usually stay in different accommodations in Franschhoek, but no longer. We'll be returning to Akademie.

"Beyond expectations this dream boutique hotel."

10.0

Sad to leave but thrilled to have stayed at Akademie. However we do have unfinished business so we will be back, that is certain. Our room was just exceptional: spacious, well equipped and the staff fired up the balcony hottub based on our return time, you might think a hottub in the glorious weather we had, but yes…. To sit there for 30 minutes and just stare at the mountains and the blue sky above was magical. The breakfasts either served in the orangery of pool side were a taste bud delight. Worth returning just for the breakfast. They say you get what you pay for, this applies to everything about Akademie. The welcome and advice provided by Declan and staff was excellent and what wonderful people they are. We have visited many locations and stayed in many hotels. This is my joint favourite, so we will return. A big thank you to Declan’s team 🙏👏🙏👏
