A Winelands Vineyard Hotel

On a 30-acre wine estate in Franschhoek, South Africa, La Residence is a luxury Cape Winelands hotel with suites, vineyard suites and a six-bedroom villa, farm-to-table dining, a spa and vineyard views.

Seclusion among the vines

La Residence, part of The Royal Portfolio, sits on a private 30-acre estate in the Franschhoek Valley, surrounded by mountains and vineyards in South Africa’s celebrated Cape Winelands. Accommodation runs from individually designed hotel suites, reserved for guests over ten, to family-friendly vineyard suites with open-plan lounges, private verandahs, gardens and heated pools, and the exclusive-use six-bedroom Franschhoek House villa. Dining follows a farm-to-table philosophy, with ever-changing seasonal menus from the working farm, the estate’s own La Residence wines and a sommelier-crafted list. There is a spa for revitalising treatments, a pool, and a long list of experiences from wine tasting across the Franschhoek estates to hiking, cycling, art galleries, golf and helicopter tours, with Cape Town within easy reach. A member of The Leading Hotels of the World, it suits couples and small groups who want a romantic, secluded winelands base with exceptional food and wine.
