Erinvale Estate Hotel & Spa is one of more than 320 hotels and resorts throughout the globe that is recognised by Historic Hotels of Worldwide for preserving and maintaining its historic integrity, architecture and ambiance.
“We are delighted to recognise Erinvale Estate Hotel & Spa in being nominated for Historic Hotels Worldwide Best Historic Resort Award,” said Lawrence P. Horwitz, Executive Vice President, Historic Hotels of America and Historic Hotels Worldwide. “This hotel is part of a select group of nominee finalists in a number of categories. It is an honour to be nominated and recognised.”
Erinvale Estate Hotel & Spa is steeped in history, but the natural evolution that gradually transformed it from a modest Cape Dutch-style farmstead dating back to the 1700s into the elegant boutique hotel of today has preserved the rich heritage of this property. The only part now identifiable is the original chimney of the old kitchen. The L-shaped thatched rooms were constructed within the footprint of the original stables and the Georgian-style block was built within the footprint of the original stable barn. The smaller conference centre consisting of the Birch and Oak Rooms used to be the old tractor shed and the large conference centre was the old pigsty. These original building structures are over 300 years old and contributes to the historical claim of the property.
