Luuks gemeubeleerd - baie netjies en skoon. Kort maintenance hier en daar.

Baie lekker gebly - rustig - pragtige natuurskoon.

Great stay lovely place.

Breakfast service was tardy and felt unhygienic and sloppy. Elizabeth at reception was exceptional. The curtains should be able to be opened fully as the views are exceptional.

Rustige plek om net bietjie af te skakel en die natuurskoon te geniet.

Ons het vir 'n week gebly. Die plek was netjies en skoon en die ontbyt was een van die hoogetpunte. Daar is 'n lekker swembad en die diens was uitstekend.

Uitstekende ligging, uitsig en pragtige kamer, gerieflik en luuks. Goeie diens, vriendelik en effektief.

Beurtkrag versuur die omstandighede deurdat hul nie ingerig is daarvoor. Geen middag/ aandetes kon verskaf word. Weens die vakansietyd was al die restaurante reeds vol bespreek. Ons het staatgemaak op L'Ermitage se restaurant, maar kon ongelukkig nie van etes voorsien word wat jammer is.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Excellent location, view and beautiful room, comfortable and luxurious. Good service, friendly and efficient.

Beurtkrag sours the circumstances because they are not equipped for it. No lunch/dinners could be provided. Due to the holiday season, all the restaurants were already fully booked. We relied on L'Ermitage's restaurant but unfortunately could not be provided with meals which is a shame.

Had an amazing experience.

The staff was so helpful and professional. Our room has rained in, and the staff as well as the management apologised for this inconvenience, and have moved us to another room. They even provided us with afternoon platters to indulge. We were treated like kings and queens, even the transport we organised. Thank you L'Ermitage Franschhoek Chateau & Villas.

Baie, baie mooi kamers en tuine, met baie behulpsame personeel.

L'Ermitage Franschhoek Chataeu & Villas het vir my baie mooi gelyk op die webtuiste, maar om die plek te sien is net ongelooflik. Dit voel of jy in 'n klein dorpie iewers in Frankryk is. Die tuine is stunning, die uitsig uit 'n ander wêreld. Binne is dit baie, baie mooi en die personeel is baie behulpsaam en praat Afrikaans.

L'Ermitage Franschhoek Chataeu & Villas looked really nice to me on the website, but seeing the place is just amazing. It feels like you are in a small town somewhere in France. The gardens are stunning, the view out of another world. Inside it is very, very beautiful and the staff are very helpful and speak Afrikaans.

Swak waarde vir geld.

Die verblyf is teleurstellend in ag genome die prys. Die handdoeke is geskeur en oor die algemeen is eenheid nie skoon. Ontbyt is gemiddeld en bediening stadig. Sal beslis nie terugkeer nie.

The accommodation is disappointing considering the price. The towels are torn and overall the unit is not clean. Breakfast is average and service slow. Definitely will not return.

Not too bad.

The fridge in the self-catering unit didn't work, the air conditioning in the master bedroom didn't work, (they did put a fan in there but it didn't make it cold enough).

This was my best family holiday. 4 star!

I would recommend any couple, friends or family to book in at the L'Ermitage any day, winter or summer. The service was superb. We were treated with such love and it felt as if I was at my family home with friends. Staff - what a great job and the breakfast was great. 4 star!

Was teleurgesteld aangesien dit 'n verrassing vir my dogter se 21ste verjaardag was.

Ons het 3 villa-kamers bespreek. Een dubbel en 2 enkel. Met aankoms was daar net 1 dubbelkamer bespreek. Niemand kon verstaan wat van die bespreking geword het nie. Gelukkig het ek al my e-posse wat ontvang is saamgeneem. Die 2 enkelpersone (manlik en vroulik) moes die eerste nag 'n kamer deel. Die volgende dag is daar vir een van hulle 'n afsonderlike kamer gegee. Gloeilampe was geblaas. Moes vra vir toiletpapier, handdoeke en badseep.

Was disappointed as it was a surprise for my daughter's 21st birthday.

We booked 3 villa rooms. One double and 2 single. On arrival there was only 1 double room booked. No one could understand what had become of the discussion. Fortunately, I took all my received emails with me. The 2 single persons (male and female) had to share a room the first night. The next day one of them was given a separate room. Light bulbs were blown. Had to ask for toilet paper, towels and bath soap.

Beautiful place, but they're not well managed

L'Ermitage is beautifully located and the rooms have very generous proportions and are quite luxurious. However, the other memories of the stay were rather disappointing, especially for a 4-star place: the private pool worked only on the last day (after reminding the reception every day and receiving no progress reports), the bedroom had an unbearable smell of moisture and old smoke, the breakfast was marked by a daily fight for cutlery, coffees and literally every single thing on the buffet (thanks to complete under staffing). Also, the reception charged us extra money, due to errors on the system. Due to this, I definitely wouldn't go back.
