Franschhoek Boutique Hotel - Lion Roars Hotels & Lodges

Staff, breakfast, location all fantastic.

Hotel needs a good face lift. Room while clean was very shabby, with doors not shutting properly and cracks in the walls, especially doorframes. Laundry makes a racket at night. I asked for shaded parking, and it was not really because the creeper could not grow over the hot metal framework. Why not just put is a sun-filtering cover? Tables were so wonky that when using just a knife and fork the table wobbled and spilt the coffee.

Fantastic location

Nothing

mattress was terrible and bed made a noise

Great location just behind Franschhoek Square. We had a gorgeous room and lovely bathroom which could be opened up into the bedroom. Staff were lovely, friendly and helpful and the breakfast was really nice with a continental selection and hot food to order.

Location of the hotel is in city center, so very convenient to go out in the evening. They have complimentary shuttle to wine tram station. Size of the room was decent, bathrobes in the room.

Reception and breakfast area is in the same room. Toilet is behind reception. These common areas lacked tidiness, a litte bit ruined down. Breakfast very simple - you can choose from the menu and as well they have mini buffet. Buffet food needs to be placed a little bit more appealing. In our room during the night was strong and unpleasant drainage smell, I could not fell asleep quite along because of that. AC wasn't working.

Very friendly staff. Greta location, in the middle of town but still tugged away.

Unfortunately there was a bad smell from the ablution in the room which persisted throughout our stay.
