Three couples stayed for three nights. Great location in the heart of Stellenbosch, lovely boutique look & feel including stunning outside space. Fantastic staff. Lovely breakfasts & sweet touch of afternoon tea. All day bar & light eats available. On site drivers. The only reason I’ve not given it a 5 is the bathrooms are a bit tired & some of the furniture is pretty basic. But the beds were really comfortable (we all slept super well) & we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We’d defo return.

Quiet, beautiful boutique hotel within easy walking distance to town, shops and restaurants. Staff was personable and helpful and the beds were very comfortable. Perfect launch for visiting vineyards in the area and there are no shortage of those! Highly recommend.

A cozy feel, the lounge area is so homey, the rooms are comfortable and every detail is attended too. Saki and team were amazing. The location is suitable for walks, cycling and adventures into night life. The staff are superb and what comes from the kitchen is exequisite

A fan of staying at the Tree House (Cape Town) 6 yrs ago prompted us to book with the Living Journey for the majority of our trip this time. The RM Boutique Hotel was second on our destination list. It’s situated so well for all in Stellenbosch.The team are fabulous always smiling (that’s genuine too) and always happy to help whatever we requested. The layout and style of this hotel is so laid back easy and relaxing. The room was comfortable, spacious and quiet, providing a fabulous sleep quality. The hotel provides a really good breakfast with fresh quality fruit, cereals yoghurts pastries and a list of cooked plates which the Full English is delicious. The pools here provide a peaceful haven to relax around and loungers ooze comfort. If only the weather could heat the water more quickly! Safe parking and easy access. Thanks to all the team and hello and gold stars to Sakhi and Phelo who were tops. On to the next LJ destination but this is a great memory to cherish. STAY HERE it does what it claims. Great value. Brilliant, thanks.

Superb service.....always a smile and an offer of a coffee or a drink. Comfortable nice size rooms. Beautiful pool area after a day out. The tea and cake laid out in the afternoon is a lovely touch. We have already booked for our next stay in a few days time!

We loved everything about this chilled and stylish 5* boutique hotel. The breakfasts were sublime,the welcome drink, the charming staff, the home made cake every day, the hotel cat (equally stylish and chilled). As it was our honeymoon, they gave us a fabulous upgrade to a deluxe 4- poster bedded room. No wonder this is the best hotel in Stellenbosch

Wow! We had an incredibly great time in this hotel! We went to Stellenbosch as the end of our adventurous travels to calm down an relax a couple of days and we went to the perfect place for that! Lovely architecture and really sweet rooms, everything was clean, the breakfast was amazing! But the best: The staff was so kind and sweet and made us feel so comfortable! Thank you Sakhi, Erin and all your collegues! You gave us a time, we will never forget!

My stay at the hotel was very lovely from the staff to the breakfast and the location is very great since its close to the city center , the only thing I can say was not nice was the room standards from having stains on the bedding as well the towels are old and more attention to detail should be paid in the showers.
