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.

Amazing Honeymoon stay! Highly recommend

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.

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 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.

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.

Disappointing

The price I paid way way too much for the experience of staying at the last word. I don't mind paying for quality but this trip it really was way out of kilter regarding pice vs experience.

Service with a smile!

Overall a memorable stay at the hotel. The staff and responsiveness to requests are top notch. From the welcome we received from Conrad and the team to them trying to fulfill our requests, they were amazing. Rooms are large, which is ideal for a couple, not sure about families, did not ask. The hotel is situated on the main road it is within walking distance of all you need. Make sure you look out for the sign as Wave directed us to the delivery entrance! Dietary requirements are catered for no problem - you ask and they try to accommodate the request. The afternoon tea/drinks were a treat. They only have breakfast on site and do not do other meals - they are surrounded by a variety of restaurants. The pool is not heated so usage is dependent on the time of year and temperature. There are 10 rooms and not enough parking, so you might need to park on the street - our car was safe overnight.
