The Spier Hotel

The luxury Spier Hotel lies besides the calming waters of the Eerste River. The rooms are situated in village-style buildings grouped around six private courtyards, each with its own swimming pool in a design reminiscent of the Bo-Kaap or Mediterranean villages where pedestrians have right of way. Rolling lawns, gardens and walkways connect the rooms with the reception area, lounge, bar, terrace and restaurant. The decor features a sophisticated, vibrant style with strong colours, patterns and textures that echo nature's designs, and a collection of art that explores contemporary South African culture.

The hotel was one of the first in South Africa to be awarded the Fair Trade in Tourism SA accreditation in 2004. In 2007, Spier won a Conde Nast Traveler World Saver Award, receiving third place in the overall destination category, and an honourable mention in the HIV/AIDS category. ...
