This tiny family owned operation offers six rooms in luxurious suites or traditional cottages, some with their own private swimming pool. It is perfect for an intimate, secluded stay in Franschhoek.

It is just 300 metres from the Franschhoek Monument and 30 minutes drive from Stellenbosch and one hour from Cape Town.

All of the accommodations are in lush gardens and many have views of the mountains of the Cape Winelands. Each suite or cottage has its own theme.

A full English breakfast is served each morning and the hotel’s concierge desk is open 24/7 to help you with restaurants, wine tours, hikes and advice on what to see and do in this beautiful area. Akademie Street has the personal service to make you really feel at home that only a very small, family owned and managed guest house and boutique hotel can give.
