There is very little that isn't special about this place. Rooms are spectator, location is spectacular. The service is very comfortable and friendly which makes this a lovely place to stay. The food is not great which is my only compliant. A little touch and go.

Stayed from Easter Monday for three nights. The bedrooms are large and have everything you need. The location is just out of town, we did walk one night but thought better of it the night after as its isolated and dark. The breakfast one day was a l carte and the next day was self service which I found strange... More

Wonderful setting. Our room overlooked the lake. The room was beautiful with its own balcony. Room service provided a great simply cooked meal. Staff were friendly and helpul.The grounds are lovely too. This was our favourite hotel in our tour of SA.

Our room wasn't ready so we walked to town. If you have a car, the location is not an issue but the walk is too far for anyone with mobility issues and poorly lit at night. Cabs are not plentiful so for that reason alone, I wish we had stayed in town or at least closer to town. The setting... More

Beautiful place to stay. Surrounding area lovely with breathtaking scenery. Room directly above entrance to reception was lovely except air con not working so was extremly uncomfortable. No key to lock double glass doors onto balcony. Safe was not working. As we were only there for one night the only thing we brought to attention was the lack of air... More

We hired the Chateau which has three large rooms which are all en suite. The rooms are all very large and all very well appointed. The rooms are all easily accessible from the main reception and it is a really nice and well appointed place.\\Only problem is that there is no wi fi in the hotel rooms and it is... More

The booking for the hotel was made on our behalf and we had no expectations. What a glorious surprise. On entering the hotel I was met by a friendly waiter with a glass of pink bubbly. The villa was great! A spacious living and dining room done in soft colours to create a sense of absolute luxury. A huge bedroom... More

We stayed in early January 2013 and were allocated the honeymoon suite which is in the main building. The sun was shining as we entered the room and I thought I must have gone to heaven because the room was incredibly large and very plush and the view was to die for (see pictures). It really did feel like staying... More

Fantastic location, staff amazing nothing too much trouble, food was outstanding and room service was great. Villas are well equipped and great with big comfy beds and fab bathrooms. Aircon was good, washing machine was a bonus. House keeping was a bit hit and miss with running out of towels etc but it was a very busy period. Location was... More

My wife and I stayed at L'Ermitage for four nights from 25 November 2012. We stayed in one of the suites in the Chateau which was spacious, clean, comfortable and well appointed. A slight annoyance was that the heavy window drapes were not fitted with pull cords, one drape was separated from a couple of the hangers and was difficult... More
