01
Grande Roche Hotel
Located in the heart of wine country, the Grande Roche Hotel is an iconic estate set against the majestic backdrop of Paarl Mountain. We love the 18th-century Cape Dutch architecture of Grande Roche Hotel, beautifully restored to reflect its past. The hotel offers 18 Terrace Suites, designed in a contemporary style featuring vintage touches, each with a private terrace and beautiful garden views. You can enjoy world-class dining at the Grande Roche Restaurant, the setting is stunning and you can easily spend hours here. We highly recommend their afternoon tea – don’t miss it!
