The Spier Hotel was amazing. THe lobby was beautiful. The rooms were large, well maintained, quaint. We had a large patio overlooking a splash pool. Food was terrific. I just regretted we were there only one night and with little time to enjoy the grounds and walking trails. If you can stay here 2 nights, do.

Gorgeous setting, wonderful ethos and almost opulent rooms. This was a wonderful place to spend the last few days of a nearby workshop. Walking around the the grounds, seeing the environmental and sustainable initiatives taking by the hotel and surrounding community was a great way to better understand the ethos. Definitely visit the water treatment site. The food is unbelievable.... More

Spier is a special place hence our return for a fifth time. Our visit begins with the warmest of welcomes and continues.You can look forward to a spacious, comfortably furnished room surrounded by beautifully tended gardens and choice of plunge pool. Food is of a high standard, service relaxed and informal. Bar and restaurant staff deliver excellent customer service consistently.... More

We were visiting Capetown on cruise ship and decided to get out of the city for one night as we had spent a previous holiday in the cape and had already visited most of the main sites/attractions. We love the scenery in the cape winelands around Stellenboch and Franschoek and having visited another large and well known winery on a... More

Me, my wife and our 1 year old son spent a thoroughly decent weekend at Spier Hotel just outside Stellenbosch. I have not rated it a 5 as to do so would compare it to another hotel on our same trip and I think it doesn't quite match it for the attention to detail. This is to take nothing away... More

Spier offers a mixed bag of fun to all that visit. When you arrive at the hotel, you will be taken to your room in a golf cart. The hotel rooms look like a little village with roads in between for these golf carts. They are all very big rooms and have enough space for two young kids in one... More

We arrived at Spier, aspart of our honeymoon trip to South Africa, and it completely outstripped our expectations. Our room was more like a suite - huge bed, large seating area, open fire, large bathroom with lovely complimentary cosmetics. When we we went inside, there were rose petals on our bed, a box of chocolates, red wine and a lovely... More

I loved Spier! Sadly, I had a bad cold and spent a little time down, but still enjoyed it to best of my abilities. I particularly enjoyed petting the Cheetahs at the outreach program (being moved offsite next month) and Moyo restaurant! The entertainment and buffet-style food was fantastic! The rooms were spacious and comfortable. I loved the buildings and... More

The Spier Hotel and winery was great. My girlfriend and I stayed for 2 nights. The staff was excellent. The hotel rooms and grounds are large, clean, comfortable, and fantastic. There are many things to do at Spier. It's often referred to as a "wine theme park" which is valid, but it's not tacky. The wine they make there is... More
