Stellenbosch University is an important community landmark as well as a place of higher learning. Let your mind wander back to those school days as you explore the grounds.

This modern university is often on the itineraries of visitors to Stellenbosch Central. But Stellenbosch University isn't the only drawcard in the area. Spier Wine Estate, De Zalze Golf Club, and Lanzerac Wine Estate are some other worthwhile sights close by.

Cute boutique. Lobby smelled great. Jug of ice cold water flavored with lemon or cucumbers or strawberries, nice touch. Great decor. Staff friendly and receptive and helpful. The room although small had great windows, view of golf course. Terrace view of ocean. Shower very hot which was outstanding. . Thin walls could hear shower next door. Terrace close together could smell smoke from room next door. Would prefer no smoking Period.
