Everything was perfect with great value for money and friendly service. We were upgraded to a classic room and tried to book a second night. We were informed that we could stay an extra night, but that we would have to pay full rate for a classic room. We then requested to move to a courtyard room, but none were... More

We had a wonderful stay at Asara in Stellenbosch. The hotel is beautiful and is located in a stunning scenery. The rooms were very large and luxurious for the price we paid. The staff was friendly and helpful and the breakfast was sumptuous. I recommend staying here wholeheartedly!

Thank you for a lovely stay at Asara! My husband and I spend only one night, but it felt like a week. From the moment you step inside the staff is very kind and helpful. Rooms are spacious and clean and we had a wonderful view on the mountains.

If I was grading Asara purely on location and quality of food etc it would receive a very good rating, of course my review combines these aspects with others and therefore my overall result ends up being one of gross disappointment and shock. Asara is situated in a gorgeous part of the Winelands and commands spectacular views, the food is... More

I went wine tasting today, and I was very disappointed with the service. The lady just poured the wines and didn't tell us anything about them. When I asked her some questions, she didn't know any of the answers. When I left the farm, I noticed that the security guard at the gate had a German Shepard in a tiny... More

Stayed 3 nights in delux room 105 - the same as last September. Lovely spacious room with terrace. Large bathroom and shower. Kingsize bed with exquisite linen sheets. Sorry to read of recent problems but our stay was again near perfect - from the 'welcome back' to the 'hope to see you again' at the end. We ate in the... More

What a truly 5 star experience ! Yesterday evening I came back to the room, my slippers were standing next to my bed, the TV guide opened on the page of that day with the remote next to it. Together with a little card informing me about tomorrow s weather. All staff is very friendly, breakfast selection is fantastic !... More

The views are lovely, no matter where you look. There are some great places to walk among the vineyards. Our room was beautiful, and staff was friendly and well intentioned. Service can be slow in this part of the world but they were pretty good. I was a little disappointed that the tapas and bistro place was closed (out of... More

When we arrived at Asara we were directed to park at reception and a valet drove our car to the parking for us. At reception we were told we had been given a free upgrade, a very friendly and informative concierge took our bags and showed us to our room, a short walk away, whilst telling us lots about Asara....

Although the rooms are new and large, there seems to be no individuality as one would expect at a wine estate. The facilities are large and very commercialized. The little boutique shop was enjoyable with interesting little eateries for in-between. The restaurant was far from gourmet and one certainly gets the feeling that main dishes are already dished up and... More
