Excellent hotel & staff with lovely grounds and facilities. Loved the pool and the delicious breakfast every morning.
Great location for exploring the surrounding region. A hotel I’d definitely return to.
We stayed in several hotels this trip, none compared to The Spier hotel.
I'm hard to please but this hotel knocked it out of the park.
Truly gorgeous and special.
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.
This was our sixth visit to Spier. We just love everything. Rooms, the whole area, the pool, restaurants and the beautiful, awesome staff.

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, 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. Lots to do on site- wine tasting, craft market - run by the artists eagles, Segway tours, river walk, cycling, picnics small well equipped gym, spa also family friendly with a kid's club & play area etc. Enjoy!
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
First time staying here in Winter but just as stunning as in Summer. Especially with gas fire lit .
Spotlessly clean and amazing walks around the farm.
Spier is a fabulous place. We've been coming here for 10 years and they continue to put in new art, the grounds are always becoming more beautiful and the staff are still there and just outstanding as always. Love! Great for families too.
Arrived fairly late in the afternoon and we were unaware of the Wine tasting included in the hotel price. The receptionist called the Wine tasting and they fitted us last minute. Very considerate and helpful staff.
Beautiful, clean, family friendly which means that everything closes at nine, so no late night drinks in Spier. Very friendly staff. Nothing close to this so you need a car or uber to go anywhere. Uber to Stellenbosch less than 5 euros. Beautiful wines, especially reds.

Have stayed at property before facilities poor for size of property ( pool areas ) large rooms food good,,No VIP gold add ons given , even though available “ but at an extra cost. . Good for families with small children . 6/10
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.
