"With fantastic views over the Franschhoek valley, the service levels of the Virgin Hotels group, and a range of rooms to suit different budgets, Mont Rochelle is a decent choice for the Winelands. Stiff competition in the area, however, and a somewhat commercial feel see Mont Rochelle slip down the rankings. A good hotel nonetheless."
