Spier,
in the heart the famous Cape Winelands, is more than a hotel. It
is a destination in itself. The first luxury hotel in South Africa
to be Fair Trade in Tourism certified, Spier offers visitors a
variety of authentic experiences - from food and wine to outdoor
activities - in beautiful surroundings.
With
its historic Cape Dutch homestead linking it to a fascinating
past, Spier stands on the banks of the Eerste River, near the
historic town of Stellenbosch and is just 20 minutes drive from
Cape Town International Airport.
Spier’s
focus is on sustainability and on being a centre of leisure and
culture. It is also pioneering social and ecological programmes to
help eliminate poverty, protect the environment and ensure a
sustainable future for the local community. Spier aims to embody
the vibrancy, energy and heritage of the African continent.
Visitors
are offered a rich experience of delicious food, inspiring art and
fine wine. At the Spier Wine Centre one can find the award winning
Spier wine ranges and educational wine experiences provide
visitors with an appreciation for excellence.
The
Spier Hotel has its own elegant
restaurant, offering á la carte fine
dining for guests, and at the popular Spier Wine Bar guests can
enjoy sundowners, healthy light lunches and bar snacks - and a
variety of award-winning Spier wines.
For
a lively evening with outdoor entertainment, moyo at Spier is a 650-seater restaurant that brings the taste of
Africa to your tree-top table or stylish tent. The Jonkershuis
Restaurant, on the banks of the Eerste River, gives guests a taste
of South African food. The Spier Deli, on a wooden deck
overlooking the lake with views of the majestic Helderberg
Mountains, also allows guests to picnic on the lush lawns.
The

South African art. It also visibly demonstrates how Spier has

the arts
