Luxury with a personal touch
We slept over at Villa Exner because we were attending a concert in the area. We got back late from the concert, a little bit hungry. The kitchen was already closed but the hotel staff offered to organise a cold platter for us to snack on. It came beautifully presented with smiles, courtesy and pots of tea and coffee. So refreshing to see this passion for the job, where too often staff is unhelpful. Our room was super-luxurious with a palatial bathroom, dressing room and the bedroom overlooked nearby vineyards.

Nice hotel great facilities.Food was delicious. We had a room overlooking the gardens which were beautiful. They currently have no liquor licence, so had to buy our own .To our amazement they charged us corkage ,which cost as much as the wine??

Spectacular breakfast!
This hotel is very nice - it is in the suburbs but you wouldn't think so once inside the property. A lovely manor-type house with lovely gardens awaits. Everything is beautifully maintained with great attention to detail. Has a great restaurant with a proper chef on site, and the most amazing breakfast I have ever had included in my room rate, in any hotel. Superb service by restaurant staff and the host. It is very convenient to explore the winelands and nearby attractions. The bathroom was huge with every convenience of a 5 start hotel. Not a great many TV channels, but that didn't bother us. The hotel was good value for such an upmarket venue. The dinner is fine dining, so the prices are applicable and worth it. The mushroom soup is superb!

The villa and our room were great. We also had dinner in the lavish dining room in front of the open fire with excellent table service. My only suggestion for improvement is to increase the size of the TV screens.

Villa Exner exceeded our expectations
We spent a wonderful week at Villa Exner. The service was excellent and so was the breakfast. Because we stayed a full week, Bernd the owner was nice enough to give us a free upgrade.

Fabulous boutique hotel very classy and elegant
After a busy ten days in CapeTown and the Cape peninsula,we took a much needed rest somewhere to relax and unwind.We visited Franschoek for the wine tram experience and Vergelegen and Boschendal wineries which were fabulous,but it was a pleasure to return every evening to our sanctuary.The hosts were gracious,friendly and unobtrusive,indeed very nice people .Fabulous inventive meals of the very highest class followed by coffee in the wonderful lounge before a roaring Log fire.Wonderful breakfast served on a delightful terrace by a delightful waiter.

Earns its reputation as a 5-Star retreat!
If you're planning a visit to the Elgin Valley and want a small hotel where everything is top class yet quiet and comfortable, Villa Exner is the place! It's also very centrally located if you plan visits to the many wine farms nearby. From the warm and professional welcome at the front door by Sabine, the owner, to the top quality African and European elegant accents found everywhere, you will instantly feel at home. The design and placement of the garden rooms highlight privacy and peaceful comfort at every turn. Make sure you stay for dinner because that experience is 5-Star also! The cuisine is fantastic, and so is the service (to the smallest details)! A very pleasurable stay!
