Reviews and Ratings
I stumbled upon this gem during a last-minute road trip and was so pleased with my stay! The suite was not only exquisite but a fantastic value too. The whole place radiates charm, and the owner's passion for details shows. While the dining could use some refinement, overall, it was a delightful haven away from home.
Our stay at this charming hotel was truly delightful. The warm family atmosphere made us feel right at home, and the stunning Klein Karoo scenery added to the experience. The comfortable and spacious rooms, coupled with exceptional dining, made for a memorable visit. However, breakfast could offer more options for vegetarians, and the Wi-Fi had a few hiccups. Overall, it's a fantastic place to relax while enjoying the breathtaking views.
Staying at La Plume was a truly memorable experience! The luxurious rooms were impressive, complete with an amazing bathroom. The location was beautiful and tranquil, set amidst stunning gardens, but there were a few downsides to the dining arrangements that detracted from the overall experience. The facilities were excellent, especially the pool area, which made for a relaxing time under the sun.
I had a delightful stay at this charming boutique hotel. The rooms were spacious and comfortable with an impressive bathroom. The service was mostly attentive, although there were a few moments that felt a bit rushed. I really enjoyed the dining experience with the set menu, although some of the side dishes could use improvement. Overall, it's a lovely spot to unwind, despite some minor drawbacks regarding the atmosphere and certain facilities.
My stay at La Plume was an unforgettable experience. The beautiful decor and spacious, luxurious rooms, combined with the friendly and attentive service, made me feel pampered throughout my visit. The location provided stunning views, and the delightful dining options, especially the breakfast, exceeded my expectations. However, I did notice a lack of bathroom plugs, which could be improved.
