Save your money and go to Lord Charles or any other hotel in Stellenbosch. This place sucks and when I explained my dissatisfaction to management they wrote to me: "We take not of your email, and your threats." meaning they couldn't care less to rectify any issues... Here is my story and context if you have the time to read: My partner and I stayed at Devon Valley for a close friends wedding. While a beautiful property, booking a stay was difficult in that their main point of contact, Melissa Van Staden was extremely unresponsive via email. Imagine how difficult this is when you're booking from a different country. They made us pay upfront and charged extra for using a credit card, which is something you can avoid with other hotels by simply booking online but whatever - we did it. The unresponsiveness should have been our warning sign to go else where because a slew of problems arose when we arrived: Incorrect Billing: We were charged for an additional night that we did not stay!!!! This seemed like a simple mistake because I had asked if it was possible to add another night, and while they confirmed adjusting the reservation was possible, we never confirmed we would be staying an extra night. We had pre-paid for our three nights, and upon checkout (3/11/25), they billed us for an extra night despite me confirming we actually would be checking in on 3/9 prior to arrival. Calvin, the manager, whom I dealt with at the property refunded me 50%. However I requested an immediate refund for this erroneous charge via email and they refused claiming I was in the wrong for asking for an extra night. Unresponsive Staff and Damaged Property: Despite four separate requests for a clothing steamer, none was provided though they kept saying they would deliver one to our room. Eventually, I was given a defective iron after running to the front desk four times. Because it was broken, it damaged my partner's formal pants. This forced him to change his outfit for the wedding we were attending. This represents both poor service and property damage. I totally understand they aren't obligated to have steamers, but at a top hotel I would at least expect better service! Misrepresented Accommodations: I specifically paid a premium for a vineyard view room. However, upon arrival, I discovered that my room had no such view (see photos) due to ill maintained and overgrown foliage. This is blatant false advertising and failure to deliver the specific room category I paid for. When I took this up with Calvin, the hotel manager, instead of listening to a customers dissatisfaction, he screamed that "this is the best view in South Africa, and has won awards". Like ok? Can you see the vineyards in this picture? Because I can't... Overall I'm truly appalled at the lack of hospitality from a hospitality group... when I reiterated my concerns over email they responded saying that all my "allegations were denied" and that their "excellent reputation is well documente

住宿方回覆: This case was investigated thoroughly by management. The client was responded to within a few hours of her complaint. Her allegations are categorically untrue. She quotes an email reply "We take not of your email, and your threats." The email correctly reads "We take note of your email, and your threats." The picture taken by client is from the bottom up not from the top down, and forms part of idyllic garden settings at the Hotel. Briefly, client cancelled her first night on the day of arrival and demanded a 100% refund for that day. She is contractually obliged to pay 100% refund, we kindly extended a 50% refund. She again demanded 100% with the threat of a bad review if her demand was not met. We respectfully and correctly declined.
Sehr schön in den Weinbergen gelegenes Hotel mit gepflegter Außenanlage. Die Zimmer sind allerdings renovierungsbedürftig! Die Tür zur Terrasse ging sehr schwer, es gab Keinen Kühlschrank, obwohl in der Ausstattung angezeigt und nach dem Duschen stand jedesmal das Bad unter Wasser. Der Ausblick ins Tal entschädigte etwas. Die Mahlzeiten können auch draußen eingenommen werden. Man sitzt hier sehr schön, mit Blick auf Stellenbosch. Es gibt nur eine Karte für mittags und abends. Das Frühstück ist vollkommend ausreichend und gut, das Abendessen war dafür sehr schlecht. Steak total zäh, kein Angebot von regionalen Speisen undies Karte insgesamt sehr überschaubar und ideenlos. An den folgenden Tagen aßen wir auswärts deutlich besser.
We spend a delightful weekend at this country hotel set in the idyllic Stellenbosch winelands. The staff were attentive, helpful at all times and the breakfast offered both Continental as well as English breakfast. We stayed in a Standard room which was comfortable with a very generous bathroom.

Very nice staff. We had breakfast, lunch and dinner at the hotel and it was excellent. Winetasting by Stefan was incredible, both his knowlegde and good histories. A bit dissatisfied with the design of the bathroom, the doors could not be proper closed and the showerhead was not possible to faste. The hotel is a little far from the city center of our liking,but the view was guite nice.
