Spier Estate

(Winelands - South Africa)

General Description

The Spier Hotel, built in 2000, is part of the extensive Spier estate. The 155-bedroom hotel is built on the banks of the Eerste River and has wonderful views of the Helderberg mountains and vineyards. The Spier Hotel provides four star comforts in a charming village-style setting with comfortable, spacious bedrooms grouped around six private courtyards and individual pools.

Guests can wander around the extensive grounds, landscaped with indigenous plants, or ramble along the river banks, watching the bird life or simply enjoying the peace.

Accommodation

There a number of options at Spier Hotel & Estate. The standard rooms and suites are beautifully yet simply appointed, while the five ‘art rooms’ offer something a little more. Each of these art rooms have been personally designed by a South African artist according to a set theme. All rooms are en-suite and open out onto a shaded patio where guests can unwind.

Dining

At the Spier Hotel Restaurant you can enjoy superb cuisine served for breakfast and dinner whilst enjoying the view across the lawns to the Helderberg mountain range. There is also a bar and terrace serving light meals and drinks. The estate is home to a number of other restaurants such as Moyo’s, which serves an outdoor buffet accompanied by live performances, and Jonkershuis, a lunch and dinner restaurant situated near the Eerste River.
