Be prepared- The room was filled with dust and cobwebs with a musty smell.  The carpet is extremely dirty, absolutely shocking for a 4-star hotel. Upon booking The description indicated concierge service but on arrival there was none. On arrival we were greeted and given a load shedding schedule? This was absurd given the rates charged and the least they could have done was invested in solar? In addition they said breakfast was free - on day one we decided to try it out, only to be greeted by 5  tables and a very sad table with bread, some yoghurt standing open with some fruit and dated muesli and rusks in a jar. What they did offer was to make some eggs which was posted on a board.  On night two we were awoken with loud noises outside our bedroom window which appeared to be people leaving the restaurant after 12pm and hanging out outside the rooms on the lawn until after 1am. Security was only to be seen from day 3. Wi-Fi was free but could not be accessed, very weak. The rooms are in serious need of a revamp and a deep clean. So overall our experience was extremely disappointing.

Extremely dirty and not fit for 4 stars

it was a lovely setting and scrumptious food.  I ended up staying the night post dinner.  The concierge was helpful in accommodating my requests, and made a serendipitous stay all worthwhile.  definitely recommend highly! 


a surprise night's stay after a scrumptious meal

We had booked a garden suite in view of a lunch at la Colombe. The suite was large with even a fire place and a nice terrace. We had a lovely breakfast at the pool. Be aware of load shedding and hence electricity outages … we had all forgotten about it after lunch ! Steep road going up with great views!

Lovely and large garden suite

In need of a wedding venue, don't bother with this place as staff could care less. The view may be wonderf but the communication is anything but. I have tried to get in touch via email and phone and needless to say, neither has been helpful. Cherry on top is that hotel forwards their calls to security when not in the office and security is nowhere near competent to answer any questions. 

Horrible staff

Worth noting that if you’re in a Ridge Suite pool access is a walk away which maybe a good thing given the smell of the heavily chlorinated water - somewhat of a surprise on an ‘organic wine farm’ as was the border collie dog using the facility!  There was no access to the ‘pool house’ and no towels provided - not that we went in given the bleach and the dog!
Rooms are beautifully appointed but suite could do with a refurb that said it was clean and comfortable.

Pool surprise!

We stayed in one of the Ridge rooms and the view was spectacular! So peaceful with beautiful birds coming to visit the trees near by. As close as next to our patio. The room was comfortable and clean and catered to our every need. It is central and yet you feel like you somewhere out in the wilderness when you get back to the room. We had a booking at the famed La Colombe restaurant one night. It was a short walk from our room to the restaurant and back. An adventure indeed after the wine pairing, walking home under the light of the moon. Our stay was short and excellent. Staff are friendly and accommodating. From the security at the entrance to the hotel management. We will most certainly visit them again.

Great Stay - Fab Views

Silvermist is definitely one of the hidden gems in CPT. I booked a room purely on the basis of finding accommodation that offers a fireplace and when I checked into my suite, I was blown away by the charm and beautiful space that we had for the evening. Comfortable, value for money and an absolute MUST if you're looking for a romantic escape. Will definitely visit again. Friendly and extremely accommodating service desk 😁

Winter Romantic getaway

This hotel is in a superb position high up on Constantia Nek unfortunately they don’t have a  supervisor checking the rooms, taps loose on one washbasin and a wonky shelf in the bathroom. Our patio lounge cushions were filthy, I complained but were offered no replacements. The poolside was not looked after, the sun parasol was so disgustingly grimy and soiled it even had a wasp nest tucked inside which was very active making the whole area a hazard. The breakfasts overlooking the Vineyard at the Green Vine restaurant were hit and miss, some good some half hearted depending what staff were in duty. 

Disappointing.

We had a good stay here - the accommodation is spacious and comfortable. Very comfortable four poster bed, great views of the mountain. Somewhat amazed by not being able to sample any of the wines on a wine estate - a big disappointment having booked a vineyard hotel. Apparently the hotel is awaiting an alcohol licence - but surely there are ways round this for guests? Add R100 to the room price and provide free wine samples perhaps? Staff were friendly and efficient, and it would be a great location for anyone booking La Colombe and not wanting to drive. We had booked Chef's Warehouse at the next vineyard over, a 3 minute Uber ride away.

Great location

These Zip-Lines all 8 of them are to be found on the Silvermist Estate near Constancia in the same grounds as the hotel.
Fabulous and surreal experience and really exhilarating. The instructors are brilliant and good fun for the hour or so you are with them. Each wire is higher and gets faster up to the penultimate wire - 550 meters long, completed in 25-30 seconds. It’s fast!
Should say the hotel and guest house are very nice too.
Great day out with family or friends or both.
Give it a go - enjoy.
