La Fontaine Boutique Hotel | Franschhoek
Indulge in luxury at La Fontaine, our exquisite boutique hotel nestled in the heart of Franschhoek. Surrounded by spectacular mountains, rolling hills and vineyards and just a short drive from the bustling city of Cape Town, you’ll be able to escape to this peaceful haven and enjoy unparalleled access to Franschhoek’s celebrated culinary scene. Immerse yourself in the beauty and comfort of La Fontaine, where every moment is truly a treat. And with our fleet of tour vehicles on hand, you can easily see the best of the region.
Located in the heart of the picturesque main village of Franschhoek, you’ll be steps away from the action, where world-class dining and charming shops and galleries await. If you’re looking for a peaceful place to retreat, away from the jovial happenings of the village centre, simply stay in and enjoy our tranquil gardens and swimming pools, which stretch across two properties. Dine al fresco on the outdoor breakfast patio, or take in the stunning mountain views from the front veranda, surrounded by lush vine and wisteria pergolas.
With a team of welcoming and knowledgeable staff led by Kim, you’ll feel instantly at home at La Fontaine. Our team is dedicated to exceeding your expectations and making your stay unforgettable.

Hop-on Hop-off Experience
Our most popular option, the Hop-on Hop-off Experience, allows you to do just that – hop on and off as you like, experiencing the different activities on offer, be it wine tasting, a cellar tour, lunch or just a stroll through the vineyards. And when you’re ready, simply hop-on to continue your journey.
Take your pick between 5 different lines, each visiting a selection of wine estates showcasing a separate part of the Franschhoek Valley.
The Hop-on Hop-off experience allows you to curate and plan your own day. You get to choose how long you spend at each spot (within the line schedule, of course), where you eat, where you drink, and the activities you partake in.
Your experience begins at either the Franschhoek Terminal or the Groot Drakenstein Terminal (depending on the line), where you can grab a coffee, beignet and browse our merchandise while waiting for your journey to start.
From the terminals, you will be transported around your selected line’s loop of stops on a combination of double-decker tram and open-air bus, allowing you to disembark when you like.
Embark on an adventure to uncover the beautiful secrets of the Cape Winelands with the Oyster Collection’s tour vehicles. If your wanderlust takes you beyond the rolling hills of the wine farms and vineyards in the Winelands, our experienced driver will gladly take you on a scenic tour to Cape Point, the bustling city of Cape Town, or even whale-watching in Hermanus. Whether it’s a bespoke tour that hits all your must-see spots, or a carefully curated package, you’re sure to have an unforgettable experience. Let us be your guide to the best of South Africa.
