VeroniqueFranceL'emplacement est superbe au milieu des vignes et des jardins. Le personnel est aux petits soins.
La chambre est grande et la terrasse magnifique.
Une forte odeur de fumée froide due à la cheminée est assez dérangeante…

This place is special. Absolutely loved our stay, room size was enormous, cooked breakfast was lovely, staff were super friendly and helpful with taxis around Franschhoek. The estate itself its faultless absolutely…
ErwinNLFantastisch!!
Prachtig hotel met een uitstekende service (zelfs onze huurauto werd gewassen). Hele ruime en fijne kamer. Wij hadden een nachtvlucht en mochten onze kamer tot in de avond gebruiken. Heel fijn zo’n late check out!

What we’d check for you here
- How many rooms they will hold at once, for how long, and on what terms.
- That the step-free room is actually free on your dates, and whether it is a roll-in shower or a bath, which the listing never says.
- That the desk is staffed when you land, and that the room is held past cut-off.
- Whether there is room for a pickup, a trailer or a van, not just a car.
- Whether breakfast is in the rate or added at checkout, and what time it runs.
- Whether the rate moves for your dates, and what it includes.
- What the property actually charges at the desk on top of the rate.
Questions about Leeu Estates
What time is check-in and check-out at Leeu Estates?
Check-in is from 2:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Leeu Estates allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at Leeu Estates?
Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.
Does Leeu Estates have a pool?
Yes — a pool is listed among the property's facilities. Seasonal closures are common, so we'll confirm it's open for your dates.
Is breakfast included at Leeu Estates?
Breakfast is offered at the property. Whether it's included depends on the rate — the board type is shown on each room once you put your dates in.
Does Leeu Estates have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Can I book a block of rooms at Leeu Estates?
The property lists meeting and banquet space, which usually means it handles group business — but how many rooms it will hold at once, for how long, and at what rate are set case by case and are not in any feed. Tell us the dates and the number of rooms and we'll get those terms from the property in writing before anything is charged.
Does Leeu Estates have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at Leeu Estates?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 2:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book Leeu Estates?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
