All guestrooms have an en suite shower and a few have both bathtubs and showers. A complimentary minibar with wine and snacks replenished daily is a nice touch. Upgrading your room allows for extra space, including a handful of rooms with private terraces.
Facilities at Leeu House include a swimming pool, peaceful garden, lounge bar and restaurant - The Conservatory. A buffet continental breakfast and a la carte hot menu is available daily, best enjoyed on the terrace, as well as a dinner service in the evening. There are also complimentary bicycles for guests use and a complimentary shuttle to sister property Leeu Estates. Leeu Estates is located on the hillside overlooking Franschhoek village and guests of Leeu House are able to use the spa and gym facilities at Leeu Estates. Leeu House guests can also get preferential reservations at the famous Tasting Room restaurant, at Le Quartier Francais hotel just next door.
