Chamonix Hotel Franschhoek

Review by hotel critic

As an avid wildlife enthusiast from the vibrant city of Sydney, Australia, where the charm of the outdoors is cherished, I am always on the lookout for accommodations that offer a true connection to nature. During my stay over Easter at a charming lodge nestled amidst vineyards and a nature reserve, I was awe-struck by the magnificent views of game animals meandering peacefully right outside my executive suite. The spacious communal terrace provided a perfect spot to soak in the beauty, while the refreshing pool offered a serene setting for sundowners.The attentive staff, particularly the gentleman at the front desk, went above and beyond to ensure a seamless and enjoyable experience. From personalized recommendations on local wines to a delicious made-to-order breakfast, every detail was meticulously taken care of. Being just a short drive away from bustling restaurants added to the convenience, yet the feeling of a bush getaway prevailed throughout my stay. I am already looking forward to returning to this hidden gem for another memorable retreat.
