Travelling on my own can be difficult but staying at La Fontaine was a lovely experience and I can't wait to go back. I was welcomed warmly and made to feel at home right away. My room was upstairs in this beautiful house. It was a large, comfortable room, spotlessly clean and contained everything needed for my stay. Although it... more

My boyfriend and I spent a lovely, relaxed weekend at the La Fontiane Guest House. Situated just off the main street, it was in a short walking distance from everything which was really useful after a night amazing food and a little too much good wine at Rubens. The converted house was charming with wooden floors and elegant but comfortable... more

Was looking forward to staying at this place as it looked gorgeous. They had also arranged a great restaurant for us. On arrival we had a somewhat frosty greeting from a woman. We were shown to our room. It was a good size with a good sized bathroom. It looked great. It is a stones throw from the restaurants which... more

Lovely guesthouse in Franschhoek. Very good value for money. In walking distance from all the South African Top restaurants. An absolute delight to stay here. All my clients always have a good time here. more

We had high hopes for La Fontaine after reading all the reviews on this site, but overall we were disappointed with what we got.

We loved this place. Wonderful room, quality fittings, bathroom enormous and this was the standard room. Owner was very helpful arranging restaurants, trips to wine estate and advising on route to next location. Can't wait to go back. more

Two wonderful days at La Fontaine(Nov 26-28/2008) ended our 17-days holiday in Western Cape S A. Our visit in Hout Bay (15 days) was fantastic and as we say in our country "the point over the i" was to end our visit in South Africa in Franschhoek and by La Fontaine and by Kathie´s & hers staffs´ kindness. Back in... more

La Fontaine is conveniently situated in a street behind the main street of central Franschoek. Despite being near to the centre of the town, the guest house remains quiet and peaceful at all times. Being centrally located means that it is only a short walk to one of the many of the town`s restaurants. We enjoyed greatly the French Connection... more
