Travellers' Choice
Built in 1713, Coopmanhuijs was one of the first grand residences in the heart of historic Stellenbosch, and is now surrounded by the town's many stylish shops, galleries and museums. The rooms in the Manor House and newly built rooms overlook a outdoor pool and a walled courtyard. Guests can enjoy meals from the Provencal kitchen and dine at leisure with a glass of fine Cape wine in the courtyard or in the intimate Helena's Restaurant.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

We often stay at Coopmanhuijs Hotel and every time it is a treat and we are bowled over by the sincere hospitality of the staff and their eagerness to make the experience unforgettable. The rooms are comfortable and well equipped. Dinner at Helena's is always special and breakfast the perfect start to the day. We love the location in the heart of Stellenbosch. This is one of the best boutique hotel experiences and we are always happy to return.

Great stay! Came back to stay at Coopmanhuijs because I know I would not be disappointed! From walking through the front door Suzaan and the team were amazing. I stayed in room 10, and it was fabulous 👌. I frequent Stellenbosch often, and always choose to stay at Coopmanhuijs, because I have never been disappointed.

Hotel is in an excellent location in the centre of the bars and restaurants. Saying that, the streets are quiet at night and we got excellent nights sleep. The room was of adequate size, and ours was one of the more expensive on their site and had a nice little balcony. Breakfast was nice and varied with choices of buffet and freshly made items. These were always of high quality. The property has a secluded little pool area for relaxing, and a well regarded restaurant on site. The service was always very good. The hotel does have some coverage for load shedding, so you will always have lights, though the air conditioning will go off like in most places.

What a TOP place. Firstly, the staff. Really lovely people, so friendly and helpful. Above and beyond, but not over the top at all. So professional but also so warm, so enchanting, so generous of spirit. We were charmed by literally everyone we met at the hotel and are glad to have temporarily been welcomed into a genuinely delightful, happy place. I enjoyed my daily chats with my main man William. Helped no end in a mini-disaster of my own doing by Angelika and Suzaan : all good in the end (“bly kalm, jy is in Afrika”). Too many interactions with lovely people to mention. The room and amenities all top. Spa and the pool all top as well. The bar and restaurant all top too. Really good, all of it and there are no doubt many good reviews about all that. For me it was the staff that made the difference. Our memories are nothing short of amazing and our third visit now will not be our last. Maybe later this year, but certainly next year - can’t wait to return. Oh … and the breakfast … top notch. I’m a Full English Breakfast snob. Here, they do it very, very well.

This was our third time in the Coopmanhuijs. This hotel runs like clockwork and everything is spot on!The staff and GM are superfriendly and and they seem one happy family, they radiate a positive energy. The Coopmanhuijs ticks all the boxes, (perfect location in the beating heart of Stellenbosch, great terrace, great food and wines, nice spa and pool, and especially the warm and genuine hospitality stands out. Would absolutely recommend. Big thank you to Suzaan, Angelika, William, Neal, Zuzu, Busi, and all other wonderful staff. Thanks so much for making us feel welcome and at home. See you next year! Julien, Ottilia, Lawrence and Josephine
