The Montagu Country Hotel, situated in South Africa’s dried fruit capital and center of the famous Route 62, is the only original Art Deco hotel in the country that has been welcoming visitors through her iconic stained-glass doors since 1875.

The hotel has 29 individually furnished en-suite bedrooms, 13 luxury rooms and 14 classic rooms. Two self-catering units (one unit of which is wheelchair-accessible) are ideal for families or business travellers who would like to make Montagu their home away from home for a couple of days.

The south-facing deck area of Feathers & Flatcaps Coffeeshop and Cocktail Lounge welcomes the morning sun. It also spoils guests with magnificent views over the Langeberg Mountains, while watching the Klein-Karoo sunset after a day of exploring the area. Light lunches and scrumptious platters can be enjoyed on the deck whilst sipping some of the regions’ finest wines, cocktails and mocktails or speciality Bootlegger coffees.

Charlestons Restaurant serves breakfast and dinner. Breakfast is served in our spacious Breakfast Room and glass enclosed Garden Patio overlooking the lush green gardens that the Montagu Country Hotel is renowned for. Dinner is a somewhat more formal affair. Chef Werner Blom enjoys the challenge of fusing traditional South African cuisine with fine dining flair and presentation. Dine by romantic candle light in a classical setting reminiscent of days gone by. Is this the 21st century? NO, we are back in the days when serving was still an art.

Why not settle in for an evening of reading, or catch up with friends before or after dinner in the Lubbe Lounge. The lounge is dedicated to the memory of the late Gert Lubbe who played an integral part in the establishment of Route 62 and is well known in the South African tourism industry. Gert was also the owner of the Hotel and mentor to current hosts P-J and Colene Basson.

Lush gardens surround the hotel and provide a tranquil getaway from the everyday hustle and bustle, whilst two swimming pools bring much relief on hot summer days. The on-site Wellness Spa specialises in health and beauty treatments and boasts a mineral Jacuzzi bath and sauna. Various couples treatments are offered.

A welcome new addition to the property is the activity hub, which is home to three of Montagu’s most popular activity operators – Cape Dry, Flying Feet and Protea Farm Tractor Trips. Guests are able to book their daily excursions and activities, or gather further information about the area from the Montagu-Ashton Tourism Office without having to leave the hotel.

Explore the Robertson wine route in a chauffeur-driven American Dream Car. Two Classic Cadillacs from the 50’s and 60’s make up the current fleet of this fun activity based at the Montagu Country Hotel.

A new dedicated conference, banqueting and team building venue has been established. These new facilities, together with the region’s exciting outdoor activities, its close proximity to Cape Town and our Klein-Karoo hospitality, makes it the perfect location for your next function/event or special celebration.
