    Little bit noisy in that you could hear the neighbour now and then in the next door room but it did not detract

    Breakfast very good. Room lovely, comfortable and clean. Tiny kitchen facilities and excellent surprise. Loved the location, easy to walk everywhere.

    Little parking space inside the fence Room was very cold - the only heating is air conditioner and it takes time Don’t book in advance, they decrease the price closer to the dates. I lost 40 euro for 2 nights like that - chose the cheapest option in March not seeing it will be non-refundable a month before. When they deducted money beginning of April I checked the current price and was shocked that price became much lower. Booking said that the reason is that the new rate is non -refundable - just tell me the difference between non-refundable a month before and non-refundable as a new reservation at the same time

    Very cosy and cute place with nice design Tasty breakfast with eggs made fresh for you in several styles 7 mins walk to the Main Street and center Nice fireplace in the room

    I enjoyed everything about my experience at Corner House. It was perfectly located to walk to the Huguenot Memorial Museum, as well as The Franschhoek Theatre. I could also get to the town's main street very quickly, which was convenient for starting the Wine Tram tour. The absolute highlight of my stay was the five-star service I received from Leticia. She was friendly, professional, and had so many wonderful recommendations. I visited Dieu Donné on my way out of Franschhoek as she had suggested, and the view was phenomenal. I also really enjoyed the Haut Espoir wine tasting that she hosted. I look forward to visiting again!

    Thin walls. Not the best for light sleepers.

    Super cute property. Quiet and within walking distance of the main road. Comfortable beds. The annex had a living room and kitchen area which was very nice to hang out.

    Best breakfast we had in South Africa. The hotel is close to the restaurants and we walked for the first time in or trip to a restaurant. In other regions in South Africa this was not recommended. We really liked the room and the beds were very comfortable.

    The room is a bit on the small side and not very bright during the day. Also the blinds don’t fully block out the porch lights outside.

    Amazing breakfast, easy checkin, quiet, beautiful room.

    Don’t do bookings for Franschhoek-visits via the Guesthouse. One of the employees has her side business for tours in the area (which we found out only after the trip) and it is heavily overpriced.

    Location / Pool/ Garden area & terrasse.

    Nothing to dislike. We would prefer the rooms to be darker for sleeping. The room on the verandah was particularly light with security lights.

    Beautiful place and lovely breakfast. Great position for walking around Franshoek. We particularly enjoyed the wine tasting with the very well informed lady.

    It happened that I paid twice when I only tried to check booking. I would expect somebody to put 2 and 2 together. If you see anothet booking for the same person at the same time I would hope someone would have the intelligence to check with the customer. So in fact I ended up paying a huge amount of money. That was very disappointing.

    Welcome, stylish decor, tranquility and excellent breakfast.
