Charming luxury family owned hotel and winery.

This is a beautiful hotel, just renovated and reopened in March 2025 in one of Stellenbosch’s oldest wineries. We enjoyed the knowledgeable wine tasting by Sommelier Tyson who also assisted us with a fine wine at the charming open kitchen restaurant. Everything is farm to table, fresh and excellent. Enjoyed the walks and the art installations as well. The service was so outstanding, we only had to mention we needed something to have someone immediately appear to help.

A Wonderful Stay

The hotel has just been renovated and you can really tell, everything was beautiful and fresh. The room was lovely, roomy and the bed was very comfortable and it was a pleasant surprise to have a mini-bar with complimentary drinks included. The stay comes with a complimentary wine tasting and I'd recommend taking this, Tyson was so knowledgeable and passionate. We had a LOT of wine tastings while in Stellenbosch and Franschoek and this was the most informative one we had. The breakfast was amazing, a lovely cold spread with a great selection of hot foods and really nice coffee. We didn't eat in the main restaurant as we'd booked a local fine-dining restaurant months in advance and were fine-dining-ed out so went to Vadas, the smokehouse within the hotel grounds for the other night. This is a 5 min stroll and was fantastic, really good smokehouse food with brilliant waiting staff and of course, great wine. The grounds are fantastic for exploring and the pool is a lovely place to while away a few hours with an extensive and well priced food, cocktail and wine list. We would (and hopefully will!) happily return

Wonderful relaxing holiday

The Spier is a lovely vineyard with good accommodation. They are now starting a complete renovation of the hotel and keeping all their staff on as part of the plan . I have always felt completely safe and cared for within the hotel grounds . A wonderful breakfast in the sunshine is the perfect way to start the day . There are many things to do swimming , cycling , walking , visit the hotel vegetable garden and see the birds enroute . I look forward to visiting Spier next year after its renovation

Fabulous stay- Enjoy!

Fabulous stay, looking forward to returning next year. Very friendly & helpful staff, beautiful grounds with so much to do, stunning art work every where Excellent food & drink everywhere many locally produced. Spacious, immaculate double room, on top of 2 storey block of 4 rooms. Bathroom in our room was vintage in style but well maintained and immaculately clean with double shower, bath and 2 basins. They're undergoing a refurb in March to upgrade these rooms. We had access to 1 off the 6 outdoor pools shared by small group of rooms as well as main hotel pool.

Bad reception service

Booked a luxury room with a single and double bed. The room only had a king size bed, we asked reception to change it and they said they would. We went to the bar, then went back to the room before dinner and the nothing had been changed. We rang reception again and they sent 2 people over who told us you can have 2 bed in the apartment. I showed them the booking that said a double and single bed included. They then said call reception which we did again and they said they’d take care of it. When we returned after dinner it wasn’t change so I slept on the sofa. I’ve stayed there before with wife and kids with 3 beds in a room so they clearer just couldn’t be bothered. I must say all staff at the bar, restaurants, wine tasting and hotel porters were excellent though.

Back for the 7th time!

My wife and I have been staying at The Spier since 2004. As usual the staff were welcoming and friendly and we had a lovely meal in the restaurant one evening. We love being able to walk on the estate in a safe and secure environment. Our one disappointment is the fact that the big screen in the bar area had been removed so what used to be the focal point in the evening and where guests would gather for a nice drink and a chat had gone.
