Tulbagh Boutique Heritage Hotel — South Africa’s Friendliest Hotel 

Located 90 minutes from Cape Town, the town of Tulbagh is one of the best examples of the rich history of South Africa available today. Guests visiting this small town will find comfort at The Tulbagh Hotel, which serves as an ideal base to explore the fourth oldest town in South Africa, with its welcoming and friendly atmosphere. There, at Tulbagh Boutique Heritage Hotel, historic and contemporary luxury meet. 

Historic and contemporary luxury is found at Tulbagh Boutique Heritage Hotel 

Built in the 1800s, this Cape Dutch-style hotel has evolved over many years, through meticulous renovations and restorations, to become a seamless merging of history and comfort. The hotel now offers eight categories of luxurious and contemporary rooms

The Honeymoon Suite, the jewel in their crown, offers all the essence of romance with a cosy lounge, a luxurious bathroom, and two fireplaces. Just outside is an indigenous garden with a pool. The Obiqua Suite is old-world class at its finest with pristine yellowwood floors, beamed ceilings, chandeliers, and a four-poster bed.  

The Saronsberg Suite boasts a more contemporary design, featuring a king size bed that can be converted into twin beds upon request, a fireplace and a deck with views of the nearby mountains. The Protea Rooms are spacious, perfect for families, and the Pool Rooms offer guests direct access to the main swimming pool.  

Gourmet meals and stellar facilities  

The Olive Terrace Bistro, The Tulbagh Hotel’s on-site restaurant, serves gourmet meals with its fresh, seasonal à la carte menu. Dine on guest-favourites such as beer battered hake and mexican chicken schnitzel – or try one of their vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options such as the tomato and mascarpone risotto. The restaurant also hosts Sunday Roasts, monthly themed dinners, and has the Karee Wine Bar featuring local wines, local beers and cocktails.    

The hotel’s facilities include three swimming pools, two of which are plunge pools located in the indigenous Fynbos gardens. The spa offers relaxing treatments such as massages, manicures, pedicures, and facials. Conferences, team building, and business matters also come to life at The Tulbagh Hotel with their bespoke conference packages.

About us

Actually, Home Food and Travel offers a lot more than just reviews of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.  We also visit great destinations, receive advice from interior designers and stop to smell the roses and taste the coffee.

Our team of journalists are seasoned travels and love visiting the myriad of exciting places around South Africa.  Whether it is off the beaten track or in the heart of the top attractions of the country, we’ll be there,

Home Food and Travel advice on finding the right accommodation

So what is the right accommodation?  Well more often than not, it’s your travel budget that dictates the type of accommodation that you choose. 

Expensive is not always better.  Our team at Home Food and Travel will tell you that they have camped in areas with limited ablutions and had a wonderful holiday.  They have also spent a night in a five star hotel only to be disappointed because their expectations exceeded the experience.

The reason for your travels will also affect your choice.  A business trip requires different amenities to a beach holiday. 

Our articles, reviews and experiences can certainly help you make your decision.

Restaurants with a good mix of service, food and ambiance

To my mind a great restaurant offers three things – excellent service, great food and a wonderful ambiance.  Of these, service is the most important. 

No matter that the food is delicious and the setting delightful, poor service can ruin the occasion.  However, great service combined with mediocre meal and a plane jane restaurant can still be a pleasant night out.

We’ve eaten in restaurants that are really dirty but with incredible food and couldn’t help but give a rave review.  We’ve also hardly noticed what we ate because the setting was just amazing.

However, the best restaurants come with the best of service, food and ambiance.

Spas are the ultimate relaxation aid

How do you know when you have had a great spa experience?  The answer, of course, is when you doze off on the treatment table. 

Well that’s our theory anyway.  It also doesn’t take a grand location with enormous facilities for a spa to be really good

A small, personal spa that is owner run can result in the best massage you have ever experienced.  However, the grand spas in five star hotels offer unsurpassed facilities in an environment that just makes the stress in your shoulders and neck melt away before you even finish checking in.

Adventure!

You don’t have to be an adrenaline junky to enjoy an exciting experience.  In fact, what are commonly termed adventure activities usually have incredibly high safety standards and unblemished safety records.

Ziplining, bungy jumping and shark cage diving are all very safe.  It’s just that our mind tells us we are craaazzzzyyyy to be doing this.

On the road to great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities

If you’re driving, be safe and make use of all the wonderful farm stalls that populate South Africa’s open roads.

If you overhear somebody asking a lot of questions or see someone taking photos of empty bedrooms chances are it’s one of our Home Food and Travel team members.

We’re out looking or those great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.

See you on the road!
