We’ve stayed 3 or 4 times at Excelsior, and, as last visit, had a wonderful time. The setting is amazing, Kirstin who runs it is lovely, very efficient and an amazing cook! James who is maitre d’, is also very personable and helpful. Both of them make sure your stay is top class. There’s a golf buggy you can use to look round the vineyard. The wine is very good indeed, and guests get to drink it free, whether lounging round the beautiful pool or enjoying one of Kirstin’s wonderful dinners. We will go back and would definitely recommend it.

Stunning wine farm, pool and views.
Had a fab 2 night stay at this beautiful wine farm. Dinner was very good with as much wine as you liked included. The pool is big with beautiful views of vines and mountains. Had a couple of walks in the mornings accompanied by the farms sheep dogs which was great. Very relaxing stay, lots of wine farms close by, short drive in to Robertson, great food also at GRAZE right next to the farm dam. The bedroom was small but we did have our own small sitting room as well and also a lovely stoop outside with further sofa’s to relax on. Really good breakfast, pastries, fruits, cold meat and cheese etc also a cooked breafast to order.

A bit of a disappointment
The evening meal was really good and the hotel grounds were nicely kept but otherwise this hotel was a bit of a disappointment. Nobody seemed to be managing it. We would have liked to relax by the pool, but with just 12 recliners for 18 guests that was not possible. Air con in the room was ineffective. Breakfast service was under-manned, uncleared tables, and flies feasting on the cold buffet.
