We loved our stay at this hotel. Declan and Paul and all of the team were warm and welcoming. The room was great (we stayed in Twyfeling C) - the bed was huge and comfy, it had a free-standing bath, a great shower, and a free minibvar that was refilled every morning.
The breakfast was delicious and hearty. We loved the detail that they go to here. They even have local mobile phones that you can use, and provided really helpful advice on restaurants and wineries.
This place is highly recommended, we will be going back, and this truly is a "home from home".

The main purpose of going to Franschhoek is to eat in some of the fabulous restaurants. Apart from that there is not a lot else to do and it can be very hot making it uncomfortable just to walk around the village. If self catering there are very good grocery stores including Woolworths Food and a relatively new and modern Checkers. There is also a large Pick n Pay but it is a much lower standard than the other two which are more up market.

We love Franschhoek and could easily have stayed longer.
We love Franschhoek and could easily have stayed longer. We love wandering along Huguenot Street with its many shops and small restaurants and the market on Saturdays and Sundays. We visited Haute Cabriere, Mont Rochelle and Mullineux & Leeu. We enjoyed an excellent lunch in all and had the best wine tasting in Mullineux & Leeu. On the way out we had “high tea” (at 10.30 am) in Orangerie at Le Lude which was quite amazing

Loved Franschhoek but 2 or 3 nights here would probably be enough as town is lovely but small. A great base for doing the winre tram and visiting the various wineries but many can also be reached just as easiliy from Stellenbosch which seemed a little livelier and more going on. Liked the market with drinks and music.
Drivers take note the pass into Franschhoek (the R45 from the R43 or R321) is closed 0900-1700 weekdays until the end of Feb 2024!

Franschoek is a gem!
Franschoek is a gem! Fabulous places to stay, a most beautiful Main Street with so much character, beautiful shops and restaurants, and the Wine Tram. This runs like clockwork and is a perfect way to visit several wine estates without needing to use your car. The estates are fabulous and you stop as long as you like, hopping on the next tram when you are ready!

The wineries around Franschhoek were lovely.
The wineries around Franschhoek were lovely. Would also recommend a visit to the Pigcasso winery - I know this seems weird for those there for the wine and food but for some reason the place is very nice and chill. If you are in town on Sunday, the markets were great and you could get coffee and listen to music.
I would suggest hiring a car particularly if your hotel is not in the main street. But there is a tram which takes you to the different vineyards and seemed very regular.
As to vineyards, we had a lovely breakfast at Boschedal winery.
An absolutely idyllic boutique hotel located very close to the franschhoek wine tram and franschhoek town. The staff are incredibly welcoming and accommodating. They go above and beyond to make your stay comfortable. The rooms are decorated with beautiful touches that really make this accommodation stand out as 10/10. The garden and pool area are immaculately manicured and filled with beautiful flowers. We would definitely recommend this as an outstanding place to stay whilst visiting franschhoek. Thank you Maison Cabriere!
Beautiful house with everything you would need available. Very private. Lot of space in and around the house inclusive the extra sleeping room in the back of the garden, which effectively is a studio on its own with its own patio. Everything there to host an extra couple except the kitchen which is in the main house. JJ is a great host and very easy reachable. Swimming pool is very small but lovely to cool off. Easy walking distance from the centre of Franschhoek. Very quiet and pleasant neighbourhood. A great place!
Exceptionally well located. Close enough to walk to anything you’d need, yet away from the noise of the Main Street.
The hosts were incredible, exceptionally comfortable room and amazing bathroom with underfloor heating.
Solar panels ensured we didn’t experience any form of LoadShedding.
The breakfast also outdid breakfasts at well known/established hotels in the area.
Overall 10/10. Will definitely be staying here on our next trip to Franschhoek!
Exceptionally good hotel in beautiful surroundings. Could not have been happier of our choice of hotel in Franschhoek. True five star experience with attentive staff, clean, spacious and comfortable rooms. Loved the beautiful bathtub. Pool was clean and whole pool area and gardens really well kept and beautiful. Great location in the middle of Franschhoek.
Incredible service; highly attentive and anticipatory and never overbearing. The food is delicious and homey and healthy.
This hotel is deeply aesthetically pleasing. The interiors, gardens, and orchards are understated and beautiful and avoid tropes. We would have been tempted to buy many objects had they been for sale.
Great hotel in Franschhoek - perfect location in town and just what we needed for a 1 night stay. The pool area was so lovely and relaxing - a proper little sun trap to relax in after a day of wine tasting. Staff super friendly and looked after our bags whilst we were out and before the room was ready.
Very spacious room with a cozy roof and very comfy matrasses. The property is calm and silent but still close to Franschhoek which makes it a perfect location to relax while having the opportunity to explore and dine out easily. The complementary wine tasting on the nearby wine farm was very nice!
Absolutely stunning piece of property with very tasteful decor and absolutely spotless. the bed was insanely comfortable and could easily rival my favorite Westin beds. location is also great with a very safe environment and within walking distance to some of the best restaurants in Franschhoek.
It is a fabulous boutique hotel. Declan and the team went beyond expectations, making sure everything was on hand with fantastic attention to detail. Breakfast was indeed legendary. We usually stay in different accommodations in Franschhoek, but no longer. We'll be returning to Akademie.
The perfect gateway to explore the beautiful surroundings of Franschhoek. The hotel has everything I hoped for: history, beautiful gardens, nice pool, personality, tranquility and very spacious rooms. Above all, the owner was very helpful en friendly and breakfast was fantastic!
Very nice guesthouse in Frankshoek area. Rooms are nice and clean, breakfast is ok. The staff is kind. The hotel has also a restaurant. So it is a good hotel if you want to visit the winery area or if you just want to relax at the hotel's pool.
The hotel is very close to the centre of Franschhoek and therefore within easy walking distance of the restaurants and shops. We found the hosts and staff to be most helpful which made our short stay very relaxing and enjoyable.
- The wonderful position of this beautiful hotel in the middle of the mountains but nearby Franschhoek
- The big sized and charming equipped room with great terrace
- The friendliness of the personal and good breakfast
