Avondrood Guest House by The Oyster Collection

+ Very well-designed room layout and good amount of scape + Comfortable bed + Overall nice place with very friendly and helpful staff

No material issues: - Internet was slow (could have been just our room) - Parking lot a bit narrow

Lovely welcome and breakfast was amazing. Great recommendation on restaurants nearby

Room (safari) was musty smelling. Maybe because of recent rains?

The staff were very accommodating and pleasant. The room was clean. There were enough clean towels. The breakfast was superb. The location was very lovely. I would definitely stay here again.

очень вежливый и гостеприимный персонал, на лице всегда улыбка, приятно с утра посидеть у камина за вкусным завтраком под приятную музыку, отличный кофе, есть альтернативное молоко. Красивый стильный номер с огромной кроватью и великолепным матрасом. Расположение тоже супер, 5 мин от основной улицы с кафе и магазинами. В общем только процветания.

Все было отлично, добавить нечего

Beautiful property, a quiet location but just a minute from the beautiful town with its shops and 5 minute walk to the wine tram.

We loved everything about our stay here. The staff were incredible, which made it feel very personal. The rooms were lovely - very comfortable and quiet. It’s in an excellent location just on the outskirts of the town. The breakfast was great, lots of choice with a buffet and hot breakfast. We can’t wait to come back already!

Everything. The staff, the quality of accommodation, the breakfast, the atmosphere

Staff and setting are superb !

Sehr freundlich und hilfsbereites Personal. Schöne Zimmer und gute Lage

Staff were amazing they make the place!

Well maintained property, good breakfast, excellent and welcoming staff.

It had rained the day before- patio area was slightly overlooked.

Excellent location within a 5 min walk of the Main Street. Justin and his team were superb, extremely attentive and accommodating including suggesting and then booking local restaurants for us The property is in easy walking distance of the wine tram terminal and provides a varied and comprehensive range of breakfast options.

Perfekte Lage für Ausflüge in Franschhoek, sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal, große Zimmer, perfekter Service, umfangreiches Frühstück, uneingeschränkt empfehlenswert!

Super freundliche Begrüßung, ausgezeichnetes Essen, an jeder Stelle Hilfe bei Buchungen und Empfehlungen, perfekt gepflegte Anlage und Unterkunft., uneingeschränkt zu empfehlen. Top Lage in Franschhoek.

The location to the town, market and terminal was ideal. The staff were incredible - super helpful, knowledgeable about local wines and lines, and genuinely so friendly! A real family feel. Our room was spectacular - we stayed in the garden room which was a zen sun trap, and would strongly recommend if you’re planning on having some downtime between touring the farms. A quiet, well-kept and charming boutique which is great value for money. I’d come back again in a heartbeat.

Only a minor niggle - cooked breakfast took a little longer than we expected with a couple of mix ups, however it was really delicious when it came! Would allow time if you opt for it.

Very quiet and calm and welcoming

There were a couple of tiny maintenance issues that needed to be fixed

The staff, location, cozy vibe and breakfast.

Everything

Incredibly friendly and helpful staff Great a la carte and buffet breakfast Beautiful, spacious and comfortable rooms Excellent location walking distance to the franschoek market, and the wine tram Would certainly recommend it to anyone

The hosts were amazing. The service was excellent from the moment we got there. We arrived early, thinking we'd only drop our bags, but were offered coffee and breakfast - a wow moment! The room was spacious, comfortable, and stunningly decorated. Breakfast was delectable and offered a wide variety. We will definitely be staying again. Our best stay in Franschhoek yet.

Everything was amazing.

Everything was wonderful. We have stayed there before several times and keep going back as you can’t beat it for everything. Love it

Sehr geschmackvolle Einrichtung, schöner Garten, sehr nettes Personal. Möglichkeit in der Hotelbar etwas zu trinken.

The whole experience was superb

No plug for the bath

Breakfast was far beyond expectations. Because it is included in the price, we didn't expect too much. It was fantastic. We had to leave an hour earlier than breakfast started, and at no stage was it a problem for the night staff to prepare an early breakfast, every bit as tasty as the day before. Thx

We can't fault this property and our stay there.

Cost, quiet but near the main road. Breakfast was generous with both hot and continental dishes. Bed was amazingly comfortable. Nice hot tub for a late afternoon dip post wine trams. Everyone seems very eager to please.

Not all rooms have baths. Wished we had one in our room.

Excellent location, beautiful facilities, and amazing customer service. They really went above and beyond.

From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with such a warm welcome from Jamie-Lee. She showed us around and provided all the necessary information. The rooms were large, extremely comfortable, and set to a cozy temperature, perfect for winter. We had a fantastic experience! The atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff was attentive. We enjoyed delightful snacks paired perfectly with our drinks from the bar. Breakfast was delicious, with a wonderful variety that left us completely satisfied. Highly recommend for a memorable visit!

Nothing to note.

Relaxing and warm

Stay too short

Stand were very welcoming and accommodating, room was excellent, well located very close to all the Franschoek amenities

Nothing, delivered on expectations

Perfect location at the bottom of the High Street, good parking and quiet location.

Liked it all.

Amazing stay and amazing staff at Avondrood. Our room was fabulous and well appointed. The included breakfast was great, and it was nice to have a bar on site for an evening drink. Avondrood is well located in beautiful Franschhoek and an easy to walk to restaurants and shops. My wife and I walked in the evening to restaurants in town and felt safe walking back at night. The setting within the Winelands is spectacular and Avondrood was a great jumping off point to explore many estates and wineries. Our only regret was not planning more time to enjoy the amenities at Avondrood Guest House and the small town of Franschhoek more. It is truly a gem and we would not hesitate to stay there again.

The location The ambience The charme The confort The space The staff The breakfast

It was cold and the air conditioning was not powerful enough to warm up the room

Super friendly staff and great checkin experience. Beautiful room with very comfortable bed and luxurious feel. Breakfast was fantastic. Walking distance to restaurants and to the wine tram. Overall amazing experience.

Nothing to complain about.

Great Position well situated in Town. Staff were absolutely amazing.

A wonderful experience.,Classy establishment in a central location.

Was an amazing experience

The staff go out of their way to make you feel at home. The breakfast was out of this world. Loved every minute at the Avondrood.

I can't say enough good things about our stay. The staff was phenomenal. So very welcoming and helpful with ideas for spending our time in Franschhoek. Our room was beautiful, large and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious with many choices. The location is in town within walking distance to many shops, restaurants and the wine tram. Highly recommend Avondrood Guest House.

The location is great - 5 mins walk to the centre of Franschhoek, the staff are so friendly and knowledgeable about the area (Jamie-Lee was amazing and provided great recommendations for vineyards, restaurants and hikes), the rooms are really well appointed and clean and the breakfast buffet is superb with great quality produce.

Great breakfast selection and the location is very central to shops, restaurants and bars. Beautifully appointed room with a very comfortable bed. We also enjoyed the lounge ambiance and fireplace. Pool area a real oasis in the heart of busy Franschoek.

The beautiful warm atmosphere and the welcoming staff

Lovely property, huge room/bathroom, great professional staff extremely knowledgeable of the town, activities, wineries, history, etc., and so willing to help to make our stay comfortable. Great breakfast as well. Location is at the heart of the lovely town where we can walk around even in the dark, which is not quite common in the country. Can't say enough about this property and the staff!!!!

The only thing that I would say is that the bathroom can be a bit brighter to allow putting my makeup on a bit easier.

It was par excellent and the service staff led by Karloff were so swift, polite and couteous.

The rooms were incredibly spacious and beautifully decorated with high-quality materials, creating a luxurious and comfortable atmosphere. Every detail was thoughtfully taken care of – from the abundance of plush towels to the inclusion of bathing salts for a relaxing soak. The room was fully equipped with everything you could need. On top of that, the hotel has the best location in Franschhoek!

Nothing, it was perfect

Excellent location. Very pleasant and attentive staff. Cold but refreshing pool. The lighting in the bathroom could be improved, the room was otherwise perfect. Excellent breakfast. Would definitely return if ever back in the area.

Fantastic place to stay in Franshhoek, beautiful big rooms with all the amenities you could need and a short walk to the cafes and restaurants. The staff are super helpful and available 8am-8pm for anything you could need. Will definitely be back!

Amazing people hosting us in a great place. Unbelievable hospitality, honesty bar with great selection. Breakfast buffet was so good that we never made it to the warm breakfast options. All ingredients are local, the selection just amazing. The rooms are spacious, clean, everything u need is there and minibar stacked with good options for a decent price. But the staff is the best - this is what moves it from wonderful to perfect at this place. Thanks for an unforgettable experience!

Everything!

Nothing! … apart from that we didn’t stay long enough.

Our 4th stay at this outstanding guest house! Beautiful rooms, lovely breakfast, beautiful gardens. What makes this place special though is the people. Karloff, Juvelie and Jamie-Lee were incredible together with Justin. My husband was taken seriously ill as we arrived and eventually had to be hospitalised. They looked after me as a family would. They went well beyond the call of duty and checked up on me constantly We will hopefully be returning when my husband is better. The nicest place in beautiful Franschhoek by far

Perfect location and the highest quality of hospitality that we have ever experienced. Our private room was immaculate and extremely comfortable. We will return.

Beautiful comfortable small boutique hotel. Great location very peaceful and felt at home. Staff so lovely and couldn’t do enough for you. Breakfast was lovely and great choice

The only thing is the chairs on the patio are so uncomfortable and wobbly

A true gem that I would highly recommend to anyone planning their stay in Franschhoek. Beautifully decorated and in an immaculate condition property with incredibly friendly staff. Book Mountain View suite and you won't regret. And don't forget to ask Karloff (who is exceptional) for best local tips and recommendations.

Amazing room and so well looked after.

Everything 👍

Everything was lovely. Karloss & the staff were very attentive & very nice.

It’s almost impossible to find fault with the property. We were very happy.

Old style frontage, beautifully appointed rooms and only a short stroll into Franschhoek. Delicious breakfasts. Super friendly staff.

Nothing to dislike.

Such an enjoyable stay. Well looked after by the hosts. Couldn’t fault it!

Staff were so helpful and welcoming. Special mention to Karloff, Juvlie and Jamie Lee. Location, was in town centre so close to attractions and tram. Breakfasts were divine and our room was a real home from home.

We chose to stay here again after an amazing first visit in Nov 2022. Justin Mitchell, who I understand is Operations Director for the entire hotel group (Oyster Collection), was brilliant, as always. From my first email to him, months before we arrived, to saying goodbye at the end of our visit. His staff are well informed, attentive, yet beautifully informal in their approach. It remains one of the nicest places my husband & I have ever stayed in. We can't wait to come back!

Location was superb, the staff were fantastic, lovely breakfast, spacious room with unbelievably comfortable bed. Peaceful and quiet even in high season.

Nothing to add here everything was great.

Great location, staff fantastic, clean, great breakfast, lovely pool area, gorgeous bedrooms. Like home from home. Will definitely be booking again and have stayed there before too

Everything! Fabulous staff, room and delicious breakfast.

Nothing.

Breakfast was excellent, as were the staff.

The bed was a bit hard and the room a rather dark for us. However, we enjoyed our stay and would certainly return.

Our 2. D visit and we loved everything. Carlos and all the staff were exceptional- kind attentive and very. Professional
