Lanzerac Hotel & Spa is located in the world famous town of Stellenbosh,one of the wine producing capitals of the world. It is steeped in history and was originally established in 1692 with the homestead being transformed into a manor house reminiscent of the traditional French way of fusing a country hotel and wine estate in 1959. The conversion changed the original cellar and its surrounding buildings into bars, lounges, dining area and hotel rooms. Today the iconic property hosts an elegant five-star premium Country hotel, acclaimed bar, restaurants,a Deli, a remarkable tasting venue and a chic day spa. Lanzerac is in the Jonkershoek Valley which offers magnificent views of the mountain ranges, abundant vineyards and landscaped green lawns and gardens shaded by ancient Oak trees.
The Hotel’s 53 exquisitely styled rooms and suites are synonymous with old-world charm and rich Cape Heritage, with no two rooms being alike.
