Hotéis em Swellendam

Prós: It was a joy to stay at Marianna’s lovely house. The rooms are well appointed and the beds super comfortable. We had a delicious platter on the terrace for dinner and breakfast was excellent.

Prós: Friendly and helpful hosts

Contras: Nothing

Prós: My capture already says it, we really can not describe how incredible the guesthouse and everything else was, including the super nice staff and service. We stayed in the room Genisis and it was stunning, so much love is put into every detail, so lovely!!! From the veranda you can watch the birds flying around in the beautiful garden or just relax with a cup of tea and Mariannas homemade Muffins (tastes so incredibly good). Marianna is the owner of Braeside. In the morning a wonderful breakfast, consisting of a buffet (fresh fruit, Joghurt,cheese, homemade bread, homemade muffins....+ own orders), is served. It is such a pitty that we just stayed one night at. So if you are staying at Swellendam you should definitely stay at Braeside. A special thanks to Marianna, she is such a warm-hearted person and manages this guesthouse with such a passion. You will love her! We will definitely come back! We wish you all the best! Much love Isabel and Claudio

Prós: Lovely quaint house, with fantastic furnishings. Marianna is an excellent host with great dining recommendations. Very enjoyable stay with lovely buffet and cooked breakfasts.

Prós: It was a lovely furniture all over the place and a very lovely garden

Prós: The room was amazing. Spacious, comfortable. The gardens and the house are beautiful. You can get coffee and tea and they had freshly baked cupcakes when I was there. Hospitality was fantastic. They are willing to help you with your bookings and are most flexible in arranging your stay. I highly recommend staying here.

Prós: The Braeside Guest House offers wonderful accommodation and exceptional service in a great setting. The rooms are well appointed, clean and very comfortable. It is within easy walking distance of some very good restaurants and the breakfast offered is both comprehensive and delicious. Mariana, the hostess, runs a very slick operation with the assistance of Kate and Kane and guests are really treated to a wonderful experience. We are sure to return when we are in the area.

Contras: There is nothing we didn't like. Everything was first class.

Prós: Fantastic breakfast. Wonderful atmosphere. Very fiendly owner. The first choice in Swellendam!

Prós: We had a wonderful stay at Schoone Ordt. It is such a lovey place! I’m travelling around 100 days/year all over the world and of course I saw a lot of hotels. But this place is such amazing and it was perfect for our Garden Road Trip back to Cape Town.

It is definitely the place to be in Swellendam. You will never find better (in addition to the natural pool the hotel have a jacuzzi and a sauna)

Prós: The details Hospitality

Contras: Nothing

Prós: The hosts have converted the garden into a beautiful peaceful oasis. The newbuilt breakfast restaurant is overlooking the swimming pool and the Langeberg Mountains in the background. Their attention to detail is brilliant, the breakfast spread is wonderful and fresh and they personally serve their customers. The host explains touristy activities in the area and is very interactive and friendly. They definitely try their best to go the extra mile and it was appreciated and enjoyed by all the visitors while we were there. The sundowner drinks with classy snacks are free and the well stocked mini bar in the room was also on the house. I can highly recommend this place.

Prós: The property is absolutely amazing. Our room was beautiful, the views are incredible, and everyone there was so so kind and helpful. It was a perfect place to spend part of our honeymoon- our stay wasn't nearly long enough. We would recommend it to anyone!

Prós: Wilma and Des are fabulous hosts

Prós: Lovely setting, felt very secure

Contras: Nothing

Prós: Great hosts and home. Great breakfast cooked by Des, Wilma was spot on with where ho ho and what to do. A great place wish we had more time yo stay longer.

Prós: Des and Wilma were excellent hosts, nothing was too much. The property used to be the town vicarage complex and is accordingly full of character. Comfortable rooms close to the small swimming pool which was handy during the heat. A lovely breakfast was provided by Des. Location is secure amongst other guest houses and there is a great restaurant, Powell House, within 100 yards, which the owners were quick to recommend, and so will I. Will happily return to De Oude Pastorie when next in Swellendam.

Contras: The coffee granules provided in the room weren't great but as I had brought some of my own hardly a burning issue!

Prós: If you have time on your Garden Route Trip, spend it there. Such a beautiful place to stay, with hosts who love to spoil you and could not be more friendly and warm. A beautiful house with a history, nice garden, pretty rooms. Very nice and fresh breakfast in a great room. We would have loved to stay longer!

Prós: Wilma and Des were so welcoming and went above and beyond to make us feel pampered and comfortable. Breakfast was amazing and the room and garden was charming. Wilma recommended a fantastic restaurant for dinner just a short stroll away and even made the reservation for us. This is a great place to stay to rest for a night and break up a long journey along the garden route.

Contras: Not much to do actually in Swellendam but that didn’t bother us because we were en-route to Knysna and just needed a restful place to stop on the way.

Prós: The host was lovely and attentive.

Contras: The property had some maintenance issues, the pool was dirty and there were ants in the room.

Prós: Good location and excellent hosts

Contras: Half door from FINCH bedroom to en-suite creates no privacy.

Prós: Hosts were very hospitable and the restaurant dinner was excellent

Prós: Honestly one of the absolute best places of our whole holiday. The most amazing hidden gem ever! The most gorgeous rooms and gardens and Michel was an incredible host! Dinner was also an amazing experience and the most delicious food. As was breakfast. The whole experience was outstanding! We can’t wait to go back very soon!

Contras: Nothing!

Prós: The staff and food were A1 !!! Simply amazing

Contras: Couldn’t fault our accomodation! Swellendam is a sleepy town but a good stop on the way to the garden route.

Prós: This place is pure magic. The little cottages are hidden in a green park, in the middle of plants in a very neat environment. The cottages are like small museums. No matter where you look, you will always find new things to explore. The stuff was extraordinary friendly and attentively. At night we had dinner at the restaurant. 7 different courses that just left us speechless. The cook put so much effort and love in it, we were delighted. The wine selection was small, but extraordinary and straight to the point. In between the courses the owner told us stories about the background of the place and the stuff and revealed some secrets of the food preparation. We enjoyed every single minute of the dinner and hoped it would never stop. The next morning the magic continued with the breakfast. With distance the best breakfast that we had in South Africa so far. The bread was self made and still warm, a nice selection of different cheese, home made jam, local delicacies, muffins, granola etc.. Also you could order different Omelettes (super delicious) and flapjacks (to die for) and a lot more. Everything, and I really mean EVERYTHING, was perfect during our stay. We enjoyed it so much and it was one of our holiday highlights. I just can recommend anyone to go there when in Swellendam. And even if it is not on the list yet, put it on there.

Contras: Nothing. It was perfect.

Prós: The decoration in the room was really nice, we loved the Charlotte Russe amenities, the property was beautiful, the staff was super friendly and welcoming and the breakfast was absolutely delicious (prepared with love!). We will not hesitate to come back next time in SA!

Prós: The perfect setting to unwind and recharge. Michele is a wonderful and informative host who welcomed us into this special home with cupcakes and history. The breakfast on its own could win awards but overall this place really impressed us, we will be back for many years. Thank you Augusta De Mist

Prós: Michel was an excellent and very interesting host, he has created a real family, homely atmosphere from the superb accommodation to the amazing home cooked food, all highly recommended.

Contras: Cannot think of anything...

Prós: Beautiful historic accommodation with tastefully decorated little villas in a lush garden, comfortable bed, big bathroom, generous and delicious breakfast. Don't miss the fantastic African gourmet dinner!

Prós: Wonderful place with charming room Nice garden Friendly owner

Prós: Very very nice estate , very well designed, and great hospitality.

Prós: Everything about Bloomestate was stylish. Our room was decorated to depict one of the elements. Fire. Thus it was red and black. The first black lav I’ve ever sat on! The owners had given everything considerable thought, the end result being quite dramatic. Food first class and space to lose yourself in the citrus orchard.

Contras: Nothing.

Prós: Very friendly, everything was perfect... Wine tasting and a tour threw the farm was included!

Prós: We loved the historical charm of this place and the beautiful gardens. The Apple bower and pomegranate juice we’re particular highlights.

Contras: The WiFi speed is poor and it’s pity about the proximity of the highway which ruins the tranquility. Upstairs rooms have no showers and are very hot. Downstairs rooms are cooler but you can hear the people above you.

Prós: Great Breakfast

Prós: It's a beautiful property and the hosts are the friendliest people. The breakfasts are exceptional. Rooms are beautifully big and clean and beds are nice and comfy. The staff and hosts also do a great job of dealing with the Eskom power outages and give everyone their own little battery lights for navigating their way around and for in the rooms. We also love their dog Homer!
