Welcome
To Hotel Stellenbosch, Stellenbosch, Cape Winelands
 |
Situated in the heart of the winelands, in one of the most beautiful and heritage-conscious towns in Southern Africa, Stellenbosch.
With its Mediterranean climate, scenic environment and well-maintained facilities, Stellenbosch is the second-oldest town in South Africa and affectionately referred to as the "Town of Oaks". Whether it is the magnificent backdrop of mountain ranges you seek, perhaps just a scenic drive, wine tasting at wine farms or an adventure-filled ride in a hot air balloon - you will never run out of things to see and do.
Based in a Science and Technology park, Techno Park, this 176-bedroomed hotel is flanked by two international class golf courses and a fine selection of wine farms. The north side of the property faces the Stellenbosch and Helderberg mountains and, from the south, False Bay and Table Mountain may be viewed in the distance.
The hotel provides state-of-the-art conference rooms, a fine dining restaurant, action bar and sun deck overlooking the Blaauwklippen vineyards.
Whether you`re on conference, visiting the winelands or a business in the area, this is the ideal winelands hotel in a beautifully rare scenic setting. |
