What people say

The location was perfect for us - in the town and in walking distance to shops and recommended restaurants. The room was lovely with an outlook onto the garden. Staff were very friendly and helpful, gave us suggestions on what we could do in our very limited time in Franshhoek ( we only stayed one night). Breakfast was great even tried hard to get me gluten free food etc.This was definitely a place we will come back to for a longer stay next time we're in South Africa so we can explore the area.
all reviews » We were looked after by James and Pat who were both very friendly and helpful. On arrival we were given an upgraded room which was very clean and tidy with a very large bed! The house was very interesting with an old colonial feel. It is in a secluded spot, very peaceful but within easy walking distance to the town which is very beautiful. We only stayed 1 night but could easily have stayed longer. We will be recommending Maison Chablis to our friends and family. Sue & Roger. Brentwood. UK. This is a wonderful guest house - in actual fact we think a boutique hotel right in the centre of Franschhoek, almost next door to the Quartier Francais / a 200 meter walk to the Huguenot Monument. James and Pat made us feel so welcome and went out of their way with every request - to include finding us a driver to take us on a wine tour at the very last minute!! This is an exceptional place to stay and we wouldn't think of staying anywhere else in Franschhoek. Maison Chablis was in a perfect and secure location to explore the beautiful village of Franschhoek. James, the owner, provided us with all the information we needed to enjoy the area and was helpful in recommending and booking local restaurants. We particularly loved the pool and garden where we relaxed at the end of the day. We would definitely return. The welcome was friendly, and the place is just right. Location is fabulous, and the building fits in with the Franschhoek ambience. Tastfully decorated. The owner was helpful and knowledgeable. He recommended a Restaurant within walking distance, which was a gourmet experience. This was one of the highlights of our trip to the Cape. We cannot fault this Guesthouse. The owner and staff were very hospitable and made us feel very welcome. The pool is great to sit around and relax on an afternoon. We just wish we had the time to stay more than one night as the accommodation and Franschhoek itself are fabulous places. If we return to SA we will return to both. The owner took the time to welcome us personally. He suggested many dinner options and was willing to make a booking. The room was a delight. The attention to detail was awesome, every possible comfort had been thought of. Each room has its own veranda complete with a table and chairs overlooking a perfectly manicured garden. James the owner of the guesthouse is incredibly friendly and helpful. The rooms were gorgeous and it's only a stone throw away from le Quatier Francais (africa's no 1 restaurant and in the top 50 in the world!) I will definitely stay here again if I am in the area!. This was a very good and comfortable stay.All staff and the owner were helpful and welcoming.the room was extremely comfortable and breakfast was good and plentiful. The location in the town is private yet central. We shall return. Owners very helpful and informative on local attractions. Room very comfortable and well appointed with good bathroom. Really good and healthy breakfast. Ideally situated within walking distance of restaurants and town. Lovely room (huge bed!) and bathroom. Excellent breakfast. Thoughtful and attentive hosts, booking restaurant and recommending activities, including visit to motor museum which was brilliant. Good location. Maison Chablis is a quaint, comfortable establishment. The owner is very helpful, especially regarding advice on where to eat. "French Connection" lived up to his recommendation. Everything........very helpful staff, very comfortable room, most enjoyable breakfast, first class location and excellent VFM. Would stay again. James was a wonderful host and was willing to help with any request! The lovely swimming pool area was a plus and the rooms very comfortable. Extremely welcoming staff. Wonderful location, close to village centre. Excellent room, which looked exactly as it did on the web photos. The warm, friendly South African hospitality of the proprietor. The charm of the establishment and the location in wine country. Comfortable room and beds Super location Helpful and informative owner Beatiful scenery for driving, walkingm wine tasting. The place was very welcoming and the staff was very warm. The rooms themselves were superb and can rival any 5 star Hotel. What is not to like...the welcome, the room, the location, the breakfast - cant recommend this place highly enough :). Location and surroundings were lovely . Great place to stay with excellent quality accommodation . Would recommend. everything just perfect - the host even organized a table at a booked out restaurant for us for the same evening!. James was a great host. Could not ask for more friendly service and hospitality. Will highly recommend to others. #James, owner and Pat as manager - feel @ home from the first time we meet, #"Rooms on view" kind of feeling. Fantastic hosts, great location close to many amazing restaurants and Vineyards, beautiful accomodation. Very helpfull and friendly owner Breakfast was very good Good location We didnt use our rental car once. Thoroughly enjoyed stay. Good breakfast wifi and friendly on town centre location. I will return. Very friendly staff, great location, beautiful decor. Could not fault a thing. Very friendly, helpful staff who are eager to recommend places of interest,. secure parking, short walk to the main street, excellent breakfasts. We enjoyed everything about our stay at Maison Chablis. A very friendly welcome to a beautiful guest house. Friendly and helpful atmosphere, and the rooms. the accommodation and welcome at the B&B. Great host is James Comfort is brill. Friendly owner and central location. We liked it all! Very much indeed. The friendliness of the manager. The walking destince to town. Friendly host. Outstanding. Everything. Ideal location for those visiting Franschhoek. Small friendly guest house. Cracked wash basin in Bedroom. We have no criticism. Nothing. Nothing. Our room was by the breakfast area stairs which was a little noisy in the mornings. Nothing. nothing to report. pool not quite warmed up enough for a dip. None. That we could only stay the 1 night. Uncomfortable pillows!. nothing really. If I think of something I ll let you know. The only, and very minor, drawback was the dining room background music at breakfast. Some sort of strange electronic rubbish masquerading as music. Quiet classical or jazz, or even Frank Sinatra, or good folk, would have done the setting more justice. Parking. Nothing. The stairs outside our room leading to the breakfast room. If booking make sure you book a downstairs room which were very nice.
