Absolutely beautiful wine farm with so many things on offer from wine tasting, to picnics with delicious eats and drinks from the deli, to delicious Portuguese meals at the onsite restaurant, Vadas, and more. An absolute must visit (repeatedly)

What a place, great atmosphere, great location, very tranquil. A place for romance or the family, there is enough space for both. Rich history and great wines.

Spent 2 nights staying here as a family of 4. Very nice place to relax but is slightly commercial rather than the real wine farm experience, which we've had on other farms in this region. We did the wine tasting, and it was very informative and some really nice wines which we bought and will possibly buy more in the future through the wine export account you can set up. I will say, though, that if you can take your wine home with you, it is a lot cheaper. In fact, I was a bit shocked at the overall price to get wine delivered door to door. The food and service are very good during mealtimes, but I did find that sometimes the service at breakfast was very slow to clean tables or get you a coffee. The buffet breakfast is very good with something to suit everyone as 3 of the 4 of us are vegetarian, and this was very well catered for both in evenings and breakfast. The hotel rooms are showing signs of age now. While still comfortable, they do look well worn and in need of a face lift. The noise levels at night with people going up to bed on the concrete stairs and the very echoing sound due to the design of the buildings were surprisingly very loud. As a dad of 2 kids I know how noisy kids can be but we never needed to set an alarm because we knew the kids above and to the side of us will have us up from early morning. The grounds of this farm estate are lovely to chill out on or take a nice relaxing stroll. There is plenty of place to hide from those noisy kids. Overall, this was a very nice place to stay and eat and would recommend a stay here.

We booked a 2 night delight package in a signature garden terrace room which also included a wine tasting, spa treatment and a dinner.||I’ve rated it 3 stars as the accommodation, breakfast and hotel management fell short of our expectations at this price point.||Our room was large and comfortable with a nice terrace and access to a shared pool that we often had sole use of. Unfortunately the bathroom was really dated and in need of an upgrade.||Breakfast was very disappointing. Tables are not allocated so you choose your own which lead to confusion when diners were at the buffet and others would then sit at the table chosen. The buffet options were ok but the selection of dishes available to be ordered was very narrow - only poached eggs, fried eggs and omelettes.||We enjoyed dinner in the restaurant with tasty options for starter and mains and obviously a good selection of wines by the glass. Unfortunately they ran out of the 21 gables sauvignon we liked and we thought it odd that it couldn’t have been replenished as it was their own wine. Our dinner should have been included but the restaurant wasn’t aware which caused some confusion.||The wine tasting included is the base level one. I asked if we could pay the difference to try the premium wines and was told no. We did try the premium tasting on the following day and it was a much better experience. ||The massage was excellent though when we went to check out it was included on our bill and that took more time to sort out.||Spier is a lovely place to spend a couple of days but a greater focus on the details would really enhance the guest experience. At similar price points we enjoyed a welcome tour of the hotel, a printed itinerary of activities arranged and flawless execution of actives being delivered and matching the bill. We also felt welcome with the staff knowing our names. It felt quite transactional at Spier.

We chose Spier for the 3rd time to spend our days in Stellenbosch. It‘s a really nice and lovely groomed place with very lovely stuff! The wine is really good and we enjoyed the food in the restaurants as well. We will come back for sure!!

We had a lovely time staying at Spier. The food was fantastic and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. The only disappointment was the kids clubhouse. There weren't that many other families participating and the staff though friendly, did not appear to be very enthusiastic and engaged with the children. It could have just been bad timing for us, but compared to another kids clubhouse experience we had at another hotel/winery in the area, we were disappointed.

The Spier hotel is a world on its own. We enjoyed walking all over the property. It is safe, secure and very beautiful. Breakfast offerings are the best we have experienced anywhere. We recommend having a lunch or dinner at Vadas steakhouse.
