Mont d'Or Franschhoek

Top location close to all activities in Franschhoek. Comfortable rooms and nice garden. Also relaxing swimming pools with sleeping chairs.

Easy to find, this accommodation is very special. There is a nice pool which we used despite it being very cold in April. The rooms are lovely, the staff very attentive and the breakfasts were very good. Parking around the back was easy. We walked to the tram station on the day we arrived to see how close it was but we took the bus the next morning as it was easier. We felt relaxed here and the garden is lovely to sit in and relax. We ate breakfast outside.

We were traveling as a family of four and this was our favourite place that we stayed on our 20 night tour. The accommodation is fantastic, the breakfast is great and the staff and owner are really friendly and helpful. Lots of restaurants just round the corner and very convenient for the wine tram. Unfortunately, on the second night it was just us and a group of 20+ bikers staying. We were assured this wouldn’t be an issue. At about 10pm they all returned to the courtyard and opened up a cool box to party. I had to get out of bed and ask them to be quiet. The following morning at breakfast, they were all seated together on a long table next to ours. They were so noisy we couldn’t actually talk across our table. Plus the breakfast had been decimated and we had to sit there waiting for the buffet to be restocked. Such a shame as this really ruined our experience.

We greatly enjoyed our stay here. Situated in a lovely quiet street parallel to, and just three minutes walk to many of the shops and restaurants in the main street. Easy parking either at the front or in the street behind the premesis (there's a back gate). (Just make sure your car is pointing in the right direction.) We had a front ground-level twin room. It's an old building (1876) and there is necessarily some compromise between character and modern convenience. Whether they have that exactly right is debatable. There was not much storage space: the hangers had to be positioned at 45 deg to fit in the thin period wardrobe also partly occupied by a fridge. I felt there was enough space in the bathroom to have had a hinged door in a nice frame rather than the rickety sliding door provided. I greatly appreciated the peaceful, simple breakfast buffet after the chaotic scrum of some of the big hotels in Cape Town. There are hot items cooked fresh to order, all served on the lovely garden terrace. Friendly and helpful staff.

Beautiful, peaceful boutique hotel with very friendly, helpful service and a delicious fresh breakfast. This stay was such a wonderful experience after a dreadful Capetown Airbnb experience. Also walking distance to Franschoek wine tram terminal and a block from the shops and restaurants of Franschoek. Refreshing pool to dunk in after a full day of wine tasting!

We stayed her for 2 days in January and absolutely loved it. Wish I had booked for longer. Perfect location. Room was amazing with French Doors onto patio overlooking the pool. We are planning another trip next year and would definitely book here again. Lovely hosts and amazing breakfasts.

This was a lovely boutique B&B, The room was very spacious and clean. The pool area was equally very good and relaxing. The breakfast was very nice and all the staff and management were friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend Mont d'Or as a place to stay in Franschhoek, it is very central and everything is within walking distance. If you visiting Franschhoek I would also reccomend the Wine Tram as it is an excellent way of visiting the local wineries.

A fabulous 6 nights. Thank you to Lance and the team. A beautifully located and managed property within seconds of the centre of Franschoek and all of it attractions. The staff couldn’t do more to help and make our stay so good. Thank you

3 nights in Mont d’Or is not long enough, fabulous location, fabulous honeymoon suit, fabulous breakfast, 100m to the Main Street yet amazingingly quiet and relaxed. Lance is a fountain of knowledge of local attractions, cafes, restaurants and wine farms. Thanks to you Lance and your fab team.
