Oude Werf Hotel

With a dining history dating back to the 19th century (when then-owner Tant Betje Wium served legendary dishes) there's no question that food holds special significance here. An in-situ kitchen, with fireside interiors, and a lovely vine-covered courtyard off the lounge, provide guests with a taste of comfortable, classy dining and lounging, good food and, of course, some of South Africa's best wines. Relax and allow the hotel to wine and dine you, as only Oude Werf can.

Choose between superior, deluxe or luxury room styles. Rooms are spread out across the hotel property, with some next to the poolside and garden, and others in the historic inn-house. The above-ground rooms provide lifts and adjacent inter-leading rooms, ensuring easy access for large groups of family or friends. All Oude Werf rooms are tastefully decked out with elegant, quaintly old-fashioned furnishings that enhance and retain the hotel's historic nature, as well as some fantastically luxurious modern touches.

Experience some of Stellenbosch's finest food at Oude Werf's restaurant. Keep an eye out for Stellenbosch Soul Food Evenings, which bring flavours and gourmet dishes from the past back to life. Venture off into the Stellenbosch Winelands for a wonderful day of wine tasting, then return to the hotel after a day's exploring for a relaxing in-room massage. Sip your favourite glass of newly-discovered vino and reflect on a day well-spent before you retire for a peaceful, deep sleep.
