I almost never leave a review but I couldn’t ignore this place. The property is very nice but what truly makes this outstanding is the staff, and really at all levels. From how we could park early in the morning to only check in in the afternoon, to how our little note about vegan breakfast if possible was fully noted with multiple options provided! You feel like a regular guest in a small caring hotel.

Would 100% recommend and will definitely return for a visit.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at La Fontaine - the rooms were clean and modern. Comfortable bed, and a wonderful shower. Our rooms were downstairs around shared courtyard, where the doors opened up next to the pool.
The staff were absolutely amazing and were so happy to help with all manner of requests.
Breakfast was part buffet, part al a carte - we were impressed every day with the quality of the food. There are nice areas to eat for breakfast (inside and outside). The bar was very nicely decorated and comfortable for drinks, games, watching sport..
The hotel site felt very secure - for parking, and personally. Close to Franschhoek town - the restaurants and shops are just a walk away. Very convenient. Worth noting that the hotel has a back up generator so during load shedding, we were able to use ample electricity in the rooms - and the bar area was fully functioning (critical for sporting events).

I did not want to leave tabs hope to return one day! Everything at this hotel is perfection - from the room decor to the breakfast, the gorgeous grounds to the AMAZING staff. The breakfast was DIVINE! Best French toast of my life. Stayed with my husband as part of our honeymoon and received a bottle of prosecco on arrival. Spent an evening playing chess by the fireplace with delicious drinks from the bar. Book this place now! You won’t regret it!

We were blown away by this Property! We arrived very early and just wanted to see if we could park and go walk around until check in. Cecelia welcomed us with cappuccinos and went out of her way to explain the town, made recommendations and reservations for dinner (excellent btw) she also booked our wine tram tour for the next day and gave us a wonderful lunch recommendation. She exemplified customer service! I am a former Human Resources Director and she personified excellence! In fact all the staff we encountered were friendly. The hotel is beautiful and our room was large and inviting. Bathroom had luxurious robes and a tub with bath salts! Breakfast was top notch and unique options! I can not emphasize how lovely this property is and how highly I recommend it.

La Fontaine is a very impressive property.The hotel is very conveniently located near the Franschhoek village center. Spotlessly clean with very well designed guest rooms, La Fontaine combines African charm with European sophistication. We loved all aspects of La Fontaine, including the spectacular breakfast spread, the clawfoot soaking tub, secluded pool areas and convenient transportation.
La Fontaine’s greatest asset is the great service provided by the very professional staff.After a very long flight and late arrival time, we slept past the breakfast hours. We got a call from the food and beverage supervisor, offering to extend breakfast for us. When we declined, they sent to our room a beautiful tray of foods that included pastries, fruits, breads, cheese, cold cuts, cappuccinos and even smoothies.This gesture made us feel truly special.
There were two very gracious staff members who really impressed us - Karloff, the driver/transportation coordinator and Kim the Manager. We highly recommend La Fontaine Boutique Hotel.

Beautiful Rooms and Amazing Hospitality from the owner and staff. This place was amazing and a highlight of our Honeymoon in South Africa. We only wish we had found it sooner and been able to stay longer. The front desk called and arranged for a beautiful dinner down the road at La Petit Manoir and treated us to a glass of wine. Delicious breakfast in the morning.

Cecilia & Kim are gracious hosts who went out of their way to make our stay memorable. Located one block off the main road it is within easy walking distance to first class shops and restaurants as well as close to memorable wineries. Rooms are large, beautifully decorated. Breakfast is excellent. The living room is a wonderful way to socialize with other guests. We would stay there again.

I can't recommend La fontaine highly enough. The staff were amazingly helpful and friendly - absolutely nothing was too much trouble - booking restaurants and arranging taxis for us, drinks by the pool etc. The interior decor was beautiful - it is very obvious that a huge amount of thought has been put into making this such a special place.
