Stunning area.

Ons het verlief geraak op die uitsig en rustigheid van Swellendam as 'n geheel. Die instansie word baie goed versorg en is pragtig, die uitsig oor die berge is asemrowend. Ons sal beslis effens duur wees, maar nie minder het baie lekker gekuier nie.

Stunning area.

We fell in love with the view and tranquility of Swellendam as a whole. The establishment is very well maintained and is beautiful, the view over the mountains is breathtaking. We will definitely be slightly expensive, but none the less had a great time.

Perfect for an overnight with a toddler.

Our second time staying here with our now 2-year-old. This time we had one of the family rooms and it worked out perfectly. A very nice surprise since the last time we were here is that they have solar power. So when load shedding strikes, you still have Wi-Fi and TV and can even charge your phone.

Heerlik, gerieflik en warm!

Die eenheid was pragtig, kraakskoon en baie gerieflik. Die kaggel en elektriese kombers het die winterkoue weggehou en die gemaklike bed het heerlik geslaap. Baie dankie aan die vriendelike gasvrou wat moeite gedoen het om ons te help met verblyf op die nippertjie. Ek sal A Hilltop beslis aanbeveel.

Delicious, comfortable and warm!

The unit was beautiful, spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The fireplace and electric blanket kept the winter cold at bay and the comfortable bed was great for sleeping. Many thanks to the friendly hostess who made an effort to help us with accommodation at the last minute. I would definitely recommend A Hilltop.

Sal nie terugkeer na die plek nie.

Netjies en skoon, maar kliënt se behoeftes word nie na omgesien nie. Die kamer wat ek bespreek het was skielik nie beskikbaar nie. Die goverment group booking het voorkeur gekry. Die klein cosy kamer wat ek spesifiek gekies het om op die bed te lê en TV kyk met die kaggel word ek toe nie gekontak of gevra of sou ek belangstel het aan die 4-vertrek eenheid met trappe nie. Ek sou eerder my bespreeking gekanselleer het. Ek het nie gekry waarvoor ek bespreek of betaal het nie.

Will not return to the place.

Neat and clean, but customer's needs are not taken care of. The room I booked was suddenly unavailable. The government group booking got priority. The small cozy room that I specifically chose to lie on the bed and watch TV with the fireplace I was not contacted or asked if I would be interested in the 4-room unit with stairs. I would rather have canceled my booking. I did not get what I booked or paid for.

Lekkerste verblyf en pragtige ligging!

Ons het die Oujaar afgesluit by A Hilltop Country Retreat en wat 'n bederf was dit nie! Personeel is baie gaaf en behulpsaam. Ons eenheid was baie mooi en skoon gewees. Die swembad en tuine was ook baie mooi en skoon. Ons het gebruik gemaak van die "DIY ontbyt" en kan dit aanbeveel! Ek sal A Hilltop Country Retreat beslis aanbeveel en sal hulle beslis weer besoek in die toekoms!

Uit hulle pad gegaan!

Ek en my man het op wittebrood eers by 'n ander plek in Swellendam bespreek, maar dit was so vuil en onaangenaam daar dat ons na die eerste aand uitgeklok het. Ek het toe vroegoggend by A Hilltop bespreek en hulle laat weet van ons penarie, en hulle was fantasties! Ons kon vroeër inklok en daar was selfs 'n blomme-hartjie op ons bed! Dit is die tipe diens wat mens vir jare onthou en waaroor mens nie uitgepraat kan raak nie. Baie baie dankie, Lana en span!

My husband and I first booked another place in Swellendam on our honeymoon, but it was so dirty and unpleasant there that we checked out after the first night. I then booked with A Hilltop early in the morning and let them know of our predicament, and they were fantastic! We were able to check in earlier and there was even a flower heart on our bed! This is the type of service that you remember for years and that you can't stop talking about. Thank you very much, Lana and team!

Een nag se oorbly met besigheid.

Die plek is vir my absoluut waarde vir geld. Dit is lekker veilig geleë met uitsig oor Swellendam en die berg. Kamer is groot en by uitnemendheid skoon en ingerig vir selfsorg. Lekker ver van die hoofstraat se geraas, maar ook na genoeg om by die talle restaurante uit te kom.

'n Huis weg van die huis.

Uiters vriendelike ontvangs, pragtige decor met alles wat ons sou wou he, insluitend 'n groot vuurmaakplek. Ons het 'n verniet 'upgrade' gekry en in die groot familiehuis gebly, wat ongelooflik was na 'n lang dag op die pad. Die omgewing is baie stil en die verniet sjerrie en wifi het ons laat voel asof ons regtig waardeer is. Hulle gee meer as wat hulle vra.

This facility is clean, comfortable and fine for a stop-over.

The room is large and comfortable. Bed and bedding was excellent. Kitchenette was not really up to the same high standard. Under-worktop cupboard does not give a very hygienic appearance. Cutlery a hotch-potch variety. The selfhelp bar-fridge, welcoming sherry and rusks for breakfast were all appreciated. The bathroom lighting leaves much to be desired! Shower may be modern minimalistic (clinker brick dividing wall, epoxy-coated plaster floor, no shower curtain), but one does "involuntarily curl up one's toes!" Unfortunately, the French couple in the adjacent room had a late night. With this sort of layout, it is however unavoidable and actually is to be expected when a guesthouse offers multiple rooms. My unit did not have a fireplace, but it was not really required.

Good stay, but disappointing management.

We were barely welcomed or told to decide where we wanted to eat so she could book. We were taken to our room which was not the room we had booked. We specifically asked for a room with a fireplace, which she also confirmed for us in an email, but when we arrived one of her workers was staying in that room. He had to vacate immediately so they could clean the room for us. We decided to just explore the town and enjoy lunch so they could clean it up properly and fix it. We did not see the manager again for the next 2 days.

Perfekte wegbreeknaweek!

Mooiste ligging en die perfekte winterwegbreeknaweek wat ons gesoek het! Die kaggel maak die atmosfeer lekker cosy! Beslis die plek om na weg te breek! Baie dankie vir als en die puik diens! Sal beslis weer kom!

Fantasties, vriendelik, behulpsaam en aan te beveel.

Die ontvangsdame het ons baie vriendelik ontvang al was dit al na 20:00 in die aand. Sy het ons 'n kaart met alle besienswaardighede in Swellendam gegee. Sy het ons 'n paar restaurante aanbeveel, die spyskaarte gegee om te lees en te besluit waar ons wou eet. En toe ons klaar besluit het het sy vir ons ook nog n bespreking gemaak. Die kamers is skoon en baie netjies. Die badkamers was ook baie skoon en netjies. Die omgewing waar dit geleë is is baie mooi en die uitsigte moet beleef word. Jy voel sommer tuis as jy daar oornag. Ons sal definitief dit aanbeveel vir enige iemand en ons sal ook definitief weer daar 'n bespreking maak as ons vanuit Nederland weer Kaap toe gaan.

Fantastic, friendly, helpful and to be recommended.

The receptionist received us very kindly even though it was already after 20:00 in the evening. She gave us a map with all attractions in Swellendam. She recommended us some restaurants, gave us the menus to read and decide where we wanted to eat. And when we had decided, she also made another reservation for us. The rooms are clean and very tidy. The bathrooms were also very clean and tidy. The environment where it is located is very beautiful and the views must be experienced. You just feel at home when you spend the night there. We would definitely recommend it to anyone and we would also definitely make a reservation there again if we go to the Cape again from the Netherlands.

Baie teleurstellend.

Die persoon by ontvangs was baie onbevoeg en het nie geweet hoe om gaste te ontvang nie. Kamers was slordig en nie skoon nie. Jy kry die gevoel dat alles half klaar is, en dat die werk aan die plek nog gedoen moet word.

Very disappointing.

The person at reception was very incompetent and did not know how to receive guests. Rooms were unkempt and not clean. You get the feeling that everything is half done, and that the work on the place still needs to be done.

Die ligging was perfek. Die kamer was groot en gemaklik. Hulle het regtig uit hulle pad gegaan om ons te verwelkom en op ons gemak te laat voel. Dit is 'n plek wat ek graag aan ander wil aanbeveel. Geniet elke oomblik daarvan.

The most amazing B&B I have stayed in. Really, really professional, friendly, and clean.

I will not stay anywhere else in Swellendam. A Hilltop is by far the nicest B&B I have stayed in. Every need is catered for. The surrounding mountains are awe-inspiring. Just the best!
