- • • As it is an old hotel, there are some parts that are not in good condition. The in-room safe had a dead battery and had to be repaired twice. Opening and closing the door to the bathroom requires a knack and strength.
Good location and facilities, friendly staff, but better communication would be even better
The room was spacious and clean. It was nice to have a welcome wine and a complimentary bottle of wine in the room.

- • Staff not well coordinated. I heard from the manager that there were wine openers and original T-shirts on the lower floor, but the staff didn't know about the opener. They said there was no stock of T-shirts, so they would only be available on Mondays, which was ultimately disappointing. The dinner restaurant menu was limited.

- • ⭐ A Hugely Disappointing Stay at Asara Estate & Hotel What should have been a rare, peaceful night away from our children turned into an incredibly disappointing stay at Asara Estate & Hotel. Our room was only ready 45 minutes after the scheduled check-in time. Given that we had deliberately booked a short getaway to rest and recharge, this was an unfortunate start. The real disappointment, however, came later. It was extremely cold in the Winelands, so before heading down for a late lunch, we switched on the heater in our room, expecting to return to a warm and comfortable space. We returned shortly before 19h00 to find the room still freezing and the heater not working. Housekeeping came to attend to it that evening, but despite this, the heater was still not working the following morning. Having someone arrive yet again to deal with the issue during the final precious moments of what was supposed to be our restful getaway was incredibly frustrating. And that wasn't the only maintenance issue. The bath plug didn't work either, meaning another small but important part of what should have been a relaxing stay simply wasn't functional. What makes this experience even more disappointing is that our previous stay at Asara was exceptional. It was precisely because of that experience that I booked Asara again without hesitation. We came back expecting the same level of service, comfort, and attention to detail. Instead, this stay fell short on almost every level. Things can go wrong at any hotel — we understand that. But when multiple issues occur during a short stay, and basic room amenities aren't functioning, it becomes the hotel's responsibility to ensure the guest experience is recovered. Unfortunately, that simply didn't happen for us. When you rarely get the opportunity to have a night away without your children, you look forward to it, invest in it, and expect it to be genuinely restorative.
Top hotel in a very good location
Basically everything. But especially the wine tour and tasting with Calvin. We really liked his professional explanations and his friendly manner. Thank you very much.
