From the minute you are welcomed into the Hotel you feel that you are very special. The service from the front desk to the Restaurant is first class with nothing being too much trouble. The quality of the food was outstanding and the selection of wines were perfect. We stayed in a deluxe Suite which was very large and had a great outlook on one of the pools. It was never crowded and you could walk freely around the well kept gardens, sometimes seeing a resident turtle amongst the vines. Overall highly recommended as it is not in the City so a more relaxed stay. Overall one of the best Hotels we have stayed in and would recommend anyone who is thinking of going there

One of the finest experiences in a beautiful hotel I have ever had. The welcome with signature iced tea sets the tone of hospitality from the moment we arrived. Check in was smooth and our bags were whisked away by Franklin Myer, who was so much more than a bellman!! We were given much information about the hotel--however, this was our second trip to this magnificent place, so we didn't need a great deal of explanation! Henrica at the front desk is not only an exceptional, compassionate and kind human, she is meticulous in her professionalism and made sure we were helped in any way we needed. I am so sorry that I have forgotten the wonderful woman also at the front desk who arranged for our rental car to be picked up closer to the hotel, rather than returning to the airport --no easy feat The rooms are beautiful, luxuriously appointed and soooo comfortable! Every room looks out onto some spectacular portion of the property, which is a miniature version of Kirstenbosch Gardens. Natural beauty EVERYWHERE. The dining room had been recently remodeled: a treat for the senses. The food is always excellent here. Alice, was our server and she was attentive and welcomed us as valued guests daily. While walking the property on the beautiful paths for a couple of hours, as we were taking photos, a kind gentleman offered to take a photo for us...Johann. Turns out he is the facilities guru of all the Liz McGrath properties. We had a lovely talk with him and told him that because of our first visit in March to Cellars, we had decided to return to South Africa and do the Garden Route, visiting all the Liz McGrath properties. Johann advised on a road that was out due to flooding and saved us a miserable drive. He was so helpful and kind--seems to be rather the hallmark of all the Liz McGrath Hotels! If you have the opportunity to book Cellars, do not hesitate! It's a 20 minute ride to the waterfront --close enough but in the most heavenly location!!!…

The Conservatory at Cellars Hohenort holds a special place in my heart because of its beautiful gardens, tranquil atmosphere, and stunning mountain views. But wow, I'm blown away by the new look, it's stunning and I can't get enough of its rich textures and enchanting ambiance. The food was as delicious as ever and the staff provided exceptional service from arrival to departure. Our waitress, Keisha, provided perfect attention without being intrusive.

This place is perfect! Not only is the resort beautiful, and close to the center of Cape Town, it has an amazing staff. They are very professional, attentive, and friendly. Everyone went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful. The grounds were beautiful and very lush. The beds and bedding were very comfortable and the toiletries were high end. The rooms and all areas of the resort were spotless. I would highly recommend this resort if visiting Cape Town.

Attention to details, beauty and nature - real heaven on earth. Truly professional management and a highly attentive staff. All rooms have their own unique story - large bathrooms, comfortable beds, first class decoration, heated pools, etc - and the food is spectacular. Definitely coming back!

I started my Friday morning with a walk & coffee at the new refurbished Conservatory Restaurant at The Cellars-Hohenort Hotel. On walking in, I was totally blown away & in awe, of the magnificent new lounge & bar area, the striking decor that boasts bold, colourful fabric that has a modern cozy dining space, which flows into an abundance of greenery, with big windows & lots of natural light. It’s truly magnificent, personally for me it’s one of the best places I’ve ever seen! I felt incredibly proud being South African & the designs we produce 🤩 can’t wait to take many tourists, friends & family to show off this piece of heaven 🤩🌺congratulations to the Liz McGrath team

This is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in and I have travelled a lot. It is a beautiful old building with such character. The food is wonderful and we ate in the restaurant most evenings. The chef also made the cake for the wedding we were there for and it was just wonderful. The main reason there aren't enough stars to rate this hotel, is the staff. Everyone just wants to ensure that you are having a good time and have everything you need. The friendliness from the gardeners, reception, restaurant and bar staff is second to none. We will be back !
