About this place Kilima Franschhoek

Kilima is a small hotel on Roux Street in Franschhoek, the wine town in the Western Cape about an hour's drive from Cape Town. It is a gay-friendly mainstream property, not a gay hotel, and its Google rating of 4.8 comes from a modest pool of around 20 reviews. Roux Street sits a short walk from Huguenot Road, where most of the town's restaurants, tasting rooms and galleries are, so you can do an evening out without a car. Room types and rates are on the hotel's website. Franschhoek has no gay bars of its own; for nightlife, Cape Town's De Waterkant is the nearest option.

I cannot thank Kirstie and Patricia enough for their unbelievably good and attentive communication and service. This place is absolutely outstanding & couldn't recommend it enough. Peaceful, amazing views, 5 star accommodation. A must stay if you're planning a trip to Franschhoek!

One word - EXCEPTIONAL! Our stay truly was exceptional. A world-class 5-star property that is glamorous and beautifully furnished with exquisite views and gardens. Art lovers will appreciate the abundance of art adorning the walls and various spaces. Ideally located near the main road but far enough away that you are actually in the country. Kirstie, Nandi & Patricia made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. The FRP Suite, aka the Honeymoon Suite, was luxurious and romantic, with thoughtful touches throughout. Loved the super comfy bed, breathtaking views, plush gowns and fabulous bath. Breakfast was an indulgent affair with freshly squeezed orange juice, coffee, fresh fruit, a variety of breads and preserves, as well as a cooked breakfast - the perfect way to start your day in beautiful surroundings. It's a 10/10 for me! Would love to return during the summer months. For a 5-star luxury stay in Franschhoek that will wow you, seriously considering booking your next vacation at Kilima.
