Amazing ly beautiful decor and staff absolutely fabulous. French Connection restaurant 5 mins walk and although we didn’t drink complimentary wine and spirits in the lounge….perfect
Gorgeous boutique hotel! Our superior king room was huge w all amenities, even its own pool! Would have been lovely for the pool to be heated slightly to make it usable but lovely to have a private courtyard. Staff were excellent & breakfasts delicious. Highly recommend.
The property has character. Room was not very big but comfortable. Staff really took interest in what we did during the day and came up with suggestions. Friendly. Breakfast good.
We had a wonderful stay at The Last Word in Franschoek. Great location which gave us the ability to walk to all the shops and restaurants. Breakfast was delicious and beautiful. The service was above and beyond. Rooms were so comfortable we made ourselves right at home. Our own pool, sitting room, and even a mat to work out with.
this hotel is a little gem right in the middle of Franschhoek , the decor is absolutely stunning ,and the attention to detail is spot on. We had an amazing one night stay . the service of all the staff was excellent , and the manager is extremely hands on. Thankyou to all
Everything was lovely - couldn’t fault amenities
Excellent breakfast
On previous stays all drinks were included but this time we were told there was an ‘ honesty bar ‘
On returning home I noticed that the hotel fact sheet stated all beverages included - very disappointing
We had a wonderful stay at the Last Word. Franklin, Conrad and the whole team couldn’t have done more to make us feel welcome, at home and offered to help with all aspects of our trip plans.
The hotel decor and facilities surpassed expectations. We had an amazing few nights sleep, the room felt very premium and the bathroom was incredible!
Overall, we felt the hotel was worth far more than what we paid and can’t wait to return!
The staff was incredible and made our stay amazing. The small touches added to the suite were extremely thoughtful. The suite was huge and the entire property was tastefully decorated and pristine. A 5-star
The staff at this hotel are amazing. Very helpful and really friendly. Nothing is too much trouble for them. The room we had was beautiful and always clean. We had a turndown each night with a little surprise that was left for us like chocolate, hot chocolate etc. This is a must hotel if you are staying in Franschhoek. Great location also.
What an absolute treat! Loved every moment of our stay with a warm welcome and a chat every morning, a treat at bedtime and possibly the friendliest, most helpful staff. Pure South African magic!
Amazing hotel and staff. Beautiful room with it’s own small swimming pool. The breakfasts were delicious and the house keeping staff are amazing!
Thank you for a wonderful stay
An amazing stay at Last Word. The attention to detail of the staff was outstanding and the small details really made our stay memorable. They understood our itinerary and helped us plan our days, making sure we made the most of our stay. The room was so spacious and homely. I would highly recommend this guest house! Perfect location and within walking distance to wine tram, restaurants and very short (and cheap) uber to local vineyards.
The Last Word is a great place to stay - spacious room, great amenities, friendly and helpful staff. The only complaint was that our room had an air conditioner which was undersized for the room. That coupled with the rolling power outages made the room quite uncomfortable at times.

3 star stay - heavy 5 star price!
Very average place but comes with a very high price. Standards not up to the price being charged. Attention to the little things missing. Definitely not worth over Euro 300 per night!
Bathroom towels old and fraying. No back-up power for repeated load-shedding (even 3-star hotels in Cape Town / Graaf-Reinett / Kruger Park / across South Africa now have full solar invertor - back-up generators installed!).
Bed too short (and I am average height - my feet hang over end which last happened to me at a hotel for midgets in Paris!). Room cleaning service merely adequate. Off street parking almost unparkable unless you're in a Fiat Uno.
Etc ...
Much better places in Franschoek for much less money.
Atendimento excelente, quartos amplos, café da manhã gostoso, o hotel tem acesso a uma academia muito boa da cidade e a localização é perfeita, no centro de Franschhoek. Um ponto que precisa ser melhorado é a limpeza dos quartos.
We think this hotel is a gem in Franschhoek. This is our 2nd visit, first staying in room 3 and this stay in room 2. The staff cannot do enough for you, we love our suite, feeling very relaxed in it. The extra touches the staff go to are greatly appreciated.
