We’re ending the year on a high note, with Erinvale Estate Hotel & Spa officially receiving its five-star grading from the Tourism Grading Council of South Africa.

It’s an achievement nine years in the making thanks to ongoing upgrades and investment, and it comes hot on the heels of a year’s worth of renovations and refurbishment that saw the entire Erinvale team focused on improving the hotel’s amenities, and fine-tuning our guest experience and level of service.

It’s been an exciting few weeks and we cannot wait to welcome guests to our new-look, five-star hotel in the Heart of the Helderberg.

The perfect night’s sleep

Erinvale’s 56 spacious rooms and suites are all about charm, comfort and connectivity. All boast an eclectic collection of artworks by local artists, ART TVs, fast Wi-Fi, luxurious TheraVine bath and shower amenities, king-size beds, and the finest-quality fittings and fabrics. This includes 600 thread count, sateen weave Sanders-Kauffman bedding for a sleep experience like no other.

In addition, we’ve added two more inter-leading rooms, which are ideal for families holidaying with children.

Wining and dining at Erinvale

Our library and three restaurants – the Oak Terrace, Magnolia Social Dining Lounge, and Stefan’s – also underwent stunning transformations in recent years, which have culminated in a new, sophisticated look that is at once beautiful, relaxing and comfortable. What has remained the same, however, is our warm hospitality and fantastic food options, including fine dining at Stefan’s.

A home-away-from-home experience

With our indigenous gardens, picture-perfect courtyard, majestic oaks and mountain backdrop, Erinvale Estate Hotel & Spa is perfectly positioned for local and international guests looking for break from city life. We’re only 35 km from Cape Town International Airport, a 45-minute drive from the Cape Town city centre, and yet steps away from some of the Cape’s oldest and most impressive wine farms.

During a stay at Erinvale, guests can hit Lourensford’s mountain-bike trails, enjoy a day of fine food and wine in the Helderberg, or head off on a day trip to explore some of the Western Cape’s coastal villages.

World-class meetings and events

Our prime location also lends itself well to meetings and events, with Erinvale’s ultra-modern boardroom venue upgrades now a stand-out feature of the estate. We have invested in high-spec audio-visual equipment to allow for seamless business engagement for both in-person and hybrid meetings. The meeting spaces also boast an uninterrupted power supply to avoid any loadshedding-related interruptions.

More to come

Despite having secured our five-star grading, we’ve got more plans for 2023. This includes a revamp of our on-site Erinvale Spa – and a renewed focus on growing, developing and enhancing our sustainable business practices.
Anyone looking for a destination where their personal peace and enjoyment are the only things that matter should book a stay at Erinvale Estate Hotel & Spa. We look forward to welcoming our guests – new and returning – for a fantastic festive season in the Winelands.
