Having stayed at the sister hotel in Cape Town (see separate review on the Tree House), we had great expectations for Chapter House and it did not disappoint. Mrs Arch May disagree but this hotel surpassed the Tree House. Stepping into the hotel feels like stepping into an old colonial mansion. The reception area is stunning with high ceilings, chandeliers, whirling fans and all beautifully decorated with eclectic artwork and artefacts. Sitting here with a gin and tonic in the evenings felt like being in a different world. Our room was in the more modern “annexe” with wonderful views over the surrounding mountains. I cannot compare against the rooms in the main house but we would not have swapped. Peaceful and quiet and one street away from the main street in Franschhoek. As with the Tree House, the staff are super friendly and ready to accommodate any guest requirements. Mrs Arch recalls fondly the beaming smile of Alex at breakfast! We both hope he has a successful career in hospitality.
