About this stay

Set within two charming manor houses, this boutique hotel offers a tranquil escape right on the banks of the Eerste River in Stellenbosch. The landscaped gardens provide a serene backdrop for relaxation, with terraces leading from the lounge and dining areas. Inside, the decor blends Cape antiques with contemporary furnishings, creating an atmosphere of refined comfort. Guests can unwind in the library, take a dip in one of the two pools, or unwind in treatments at the spa. The central location makes it easy to explore Stellenbosch, while the hotel itself feels like a peaceful retreat.

Our take

River Manor suits guests who want classic charm with modern comforts in two manor houses beside the Eerste River in Stellenbosch. The spa and wellness centre and the pool add downtime, and the heritage setting suits honeymoons and golf holidays. The hotel is also described as family-friendly. A 9.0 rating from 680 reviews is outstanding. Travellers wanting a large, activity-led resort programme will find it quieter and more refined than that.

  • Explore the landscaped gardens and find a quiet spot by the river for a moment of peace.
  • Consider booking a spa treatment to fully unwind after a day of exploring Stellenbosch.
  • Take advantage of the central location to walk to nearby restaurants and attractions in town.

Why we love it
