We stayed in the eponymous Fleur du Soleil suite. A beautifully decorated large space with sumptuous bed; the pool right outside our door as was our breakfast dining table.

The property is situated a 15 - 20 minute walk from the centre of the village. The homeward trek is a tad uphill. In the hours after dark the street lighting renders the journey just that little bit longer.

We had a fantastic three night stay at Fleur du Soleil! From the warm welcome and fizz on arrival, to the beautiful floral decorations in our room to celebrate our honeymoon, to the huge breakfasts, we were so pleased to have selected Fleur du Soleil as our base in Franschhoek. Our room was huge and spotlessly clean- there was lots of space and the guesthouse is located in a quiet neighbourhood only five minutes' walk from the main street. The outdoor pool and seating area are lovely. Stanley and his team did a fantastic job making us feel welcome and providing recommendations, both in advance of our stay via email and WhatsApp, and when we arrived. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this beautiful guesthouse.

Nothing- we had a wonderful stay.

From the moment we arrived all of the staff were wonderful especially Stanley who helped us book taxis and also gave us some helpful tips for the things we had planned. Anton was also very helpful and communicative leading up to our stay and helped to arrange our airport transfer. We stayed in the Vignobles Suite which was spacious and beautifully decorated with fresh flowers changed throughout our stay. It's just off the main reception area so it was a little noisy in the mornings with the breakfast set up but otherwise there was minimal noise with guests coming in and out. The location is excellent, on a quiet street just five minutes walk from the main road with lots of restaurants and bars and about 10-15 minutes walk from the wine tram terminal. Breakfast was fresh and tasty with plenty of choice and wonderful service. Would absolutely recommend this as a great place to stay to explore Franschhoek and nearby.

Outstanding location, just a short walk to numerous Franschhoek restaurants and shops. Beautiful grounds and exquisite rooms. Superb, attentive staff who made our two weeks stay absolutely wonderful. Stan, the on-premises manager, was extraordinarily helpful with dining recommendations and tour reservations. The jasmine around the pool was in full bloom and the smell was enchanting. Don't miss the opportunity to stay at this boutique 5 star, luxury guesthouse!

Absolutely nothing!

A cosy guest house just a short walk 5 mins from the town. Stanley and the team can cater for any needs from tours to booking restaurants for you and can offer good tips and advice. You can also easily taxi or get the wine team from here to different places. The room itself was high quality with some personal touches in the room. Our room had a fire place which was really good for the evening, and there is a well stocked mini bar. Water, tea coffee etc is free and other snacks or alcohol can be settled at the end. There is a very reasonable laundry service a huge bag for 300 rand rather than paying per item which can be expensive if you are doing a large wash. There is an outdoor pool and the room has a TV with sports channels too. The breakfast has lots of options and is really well presented, fresh fruit platter is great and also the cooked options are good too you can have both. The staff take great care of you here if you have any issues or questions you can just message Stanley and they will reply. Recommended

Nothing

friendly staff, comfortable beds.

suite was disjointed, small touch-points like toilet spray were missing, not enough drinking waster provided in fridge (and at the venues price point still should be unlimited and free). upstairs gusts were stuck on patio as door was swollen… we were all woken up at 6am from the banging to try get back into their room.

Everything was perfect from start to finish. From the moment we arrived, Stanley and his team could not have been nicer, more welcoming or helpful and attentive. Especially usual to us was having recommendations for meals and visits based on our wishes, and transport being arranged (at very competitive rates). Breakfast by the pool with freshly baked croissant, home-made jams and marmalade, fresh fruit, and freshly cooked eggs and bacon, and more - what treat!

Literally nothing.

The property is immaculate. Recently refurbished, every room and all facilities are first class. The small dedicated staff team could not be more obliging or helpful. Stanley's local knowledge and contacts for dining and transport made our 8 night stay relaxing and stress free. Breakfast each day was excellent, freshly cooked and well presented. The location is great, just 4 minutes safe walking to the centre. The surrounding area is great for sightseeing and vineyard visits. We could not recommend Fleur du Soleil more highly

Nothing, only that our stay could have been longer.

We booked a very last minute holiday to South Africa and chose to stay in the Fleur de Soleil Guesthouse. Even before we arrived all of our questions were answered by Anton, who also gave us lots of wonderful recommendations. We were greeted by Stanley and the team who all went out of their way to make our stay comfortable. Our room was large, beautifully decorated and clean, the photos don’t even do it justice. We’ve stayed at numerous luxury hotels around the world and the service from all the staff was on par with this with the added of excellent small touches. They even provided some recommendations for us for the next leg of our trip in Cape Town, and these were excellent too. A big thank you to Anton, Stanley and the rest of the team - we’d highly encourage everyone to stay here!

A magnificent place. This is our second stay and it was even more memorable than our first. The rooms have been recently refurbished. We stayed in the fleur du soleil room which was palatial and very comfortable. The breakfast lovely. The pool area very relaxing. Only an easy 5 minute walk to Main Road where all the shops and restaurants are situated and where the wine tram originates. As always it’s the quality of staff which makes a big difference. A big thank you to everyone but we must particularly mention Stanley. From the moment of arrival with a welcome glass of sparkling wine Stanley is a font of local knowledge. We booked a couple of restaurants on his recommendation and were not disappointed. We also changed our wine tram itinerary on his advice and again were very pleased we did so. We would highly recommend fleur du soleil. Thanks to all Paul and Ange

All good
