Auberge Burgundy

I wish I could give 10 stars because this place is a perfect 10!! The accommodations were comfortable with beautifully decorated rooms, lots of space, great beds, and balcony’s with great views of the bay. They offer morning breakfast at their restaurant next to the hotel and the food was delish! The hotel location is perfect walking distance to town with many wonderful restaurants, bars and shops. We walked to Skybar which overlooks the bay with large glass windows perfect for watching whales and their calves swimming. It was a real treat!!!! I highly recommended the hotel. I can’t wait to go back.

Had a wonderful two night stay at Auberge Burgundy. Was previously unfamiliar with the history of the hotel but was so intrigued after our lovely receptionist Mikaela explained it had been the mayors house! Mikaela welcomed us warmly and was so friendly and helpful throughout our stay. She gave us lots of recommendations and even booked a whale cruise for us which we enjoyed immensely. The hotel is situated right on the seafront and within short walking distance to the town. The room was so spacious and the decor was so charming. The lovely night attendant provided us with hot water bottles also which we so appreciated. Breakfast in France’s cafe next door was fantastic! We really enjoyed the lounge area and complimentary port by the fire. Thanks again to Mikaela and all staff for such a memorable stay. Hope to revisit in the future!

My wife and I booked into the Auberge Burgundy to celebrate my 85th birthday in Hermanus. Our stay was wonderful. On arrival there was a bottle of excellent wine with birthday wishes from the hotel - such a lovely touch. After dinner the first evening, we came home to a roaring fire in the downstairs lounge, with port and glasses waiting. Nothing was too much for the friendly staff. The breakfasts were excellent. We had the most enjoyable stay.

We stayed in the Penthouse Room overlooking The View in Auberge and LOVED our stay. The vista was magnificent, the suite absolutely beautiful, and the staff could not do enough for us. Cherry on the top was the cozy fireplace in our suite. You know that feeling when something exceeds your expectations? Yes... it's a wonderful feeling... and this Hotel did.

We have stayed at Auberge several times and it never disappoints. The rooms are wonderful, the hotel is lovely (on cold nights we especially like to sip the complimentary Sherry by the fireplace), and the staff is amazing. Breakfasts are also excellent, and the hotel is within walking distance to many shops and restaurants. I think we have stayed in all of their buildings and they are all very nice.

The rooms are beautifully appointed over two buildings. The staff couldn’t be nicer - one evening I wasn’t feeling well and the young woman at reception was most helpful. Just a stone’s throw from the whale crier, it is easy to pop down when his horn blows! Try to get an upper room to have a view of the sea.

Highly recommended hotel with wonderful staff who made all our reservations with WhatsApp confirmations immediately. the room is beautiful and spacious. so well positioned to explore Hermanus on foot.

My family and I stayed here from the 15-22 April 2025. There’s just a few issues to be addressed under the owners attention. 1. The beds were a bit finished in our 2 garden suites of room 2 and 3, and the cushions were not so great either. You need better beds and cushions. As seen on the pictures attached. 2. As for the breakfast at the restaurant- it was nice the first 2 days of our stay from the 16 and 17 but from the 18,19,20,21,22 April the kitchen staff battled to prepare a decent omelette and a fried egg. Your scones were a bit dry and it must be made with the same ingredients as the pancakes. Your pancakes are a bit too thick and they should’ve been thinner and not made with Mezina flour but normal cake flour and Buttermilk to make them a bit lighter and fluffier. The pastries and fruit salad with muesli is delicious. It’s a pity that the fresh mini croissants aren’t kept a bit warmer in the mornings. 3. The sourdough and health bread in the mornings isn’t great and you should really get som ciabatta bread instead for everyone. 4. The toilet in room 2 is higher than in room 3. You can really get a little bigger tv’s for the rooms that’s not as big as a computer monitor. 5. Your bedside tables needs to be replaced with better ones that are flatter as well as the table in front of the tv cabinet. It’s too wonky for glasses. 6. Your shower in room 3 doesn’t have an edge on the side so that the water can run back into the shower and not all over the floor. I hope the owner is reading this and will be attending to these problems and maybe it will be better than the last time.
