Overview of The Spier Hotel

The Spier Hotel, just outside Stellenbosch, dates back to 1692 and has been meticulously renovated and restored. These gracious Cape Dutch buildings are located in scenic surroundings in the Cape Winelands. The hotel is an ideal retreat for families, with a range of exciting activities on offer to keep every member of the family suitably entertained.

Relax beside the various swimming pools, stroll around the beautiful gardens or enjoy a picnic on the rolling green lawns. You can also appreciate the extensive collection of local art which can be seen in both the rooms and communal living areas. Other activities include a Segway tour through the vineyards or dining at Spier Farm Café , Spier’s farm-to-table restaurant.

        Eagle Encounters is situated on Spier’s grounds and houses many birds of prey, and provides the chance to have personal encounters with owls, eagles and falcons.
