About Oude Werf Hotel
With its doors opening onto historic Church Street, Oude Werf sits at the centre of Stellenbosch, surrounded by restaurants, cafés, galleries and local culture. There is a gentle sense of charm here, shaped by its long connection to Stellenbosch and its position within the rhythm of the town.
Its relaxed atmosphere creates a sense of familiarity that makes the hotel feel settled within its surroundings rather than removed from them. Outside, Stellenbosch brings its lively mix of food, wine, culture and conversation; inside, there is space to slow down and settle into the day. The hotel’s spaces reflect this balance, from the shaded courtyard and swimming pool to the lounge and garden areas that invite you to spend time at your own pace.
Oude Werf reflects the character of Stellenbosch without trying to replicate it — a place with its own sense of warmth and ease, closely connected to the town around it.

Dining & Cuisine
Courtyard Restaurant
An open-air courtyard restaurant in central Stellenbosch, set just off Church Street.
Step in from the street to a shaded courtyard with vines and soft lighting, or sit inside, where a tree rises through the dining room and connects to the courtyard beyond.
Where you sit may change the atmosphere, but not the experience.
The menu remains the same throughout: familiar, seasonal dishes made with care and intention.
Lounge and Bar
For drinks, conversation, and everything in between.
Some guests stop in for a quick coffee. Others settle into a corner and watch the afternoon unfold. The Lounge & Bar has no agenda. Just good drinks, familiar favourites, and space for whatever the day becomes.
The menu is simple and satisfying, with small plates, comfort food, and bakery favourites.
Stay for twenty minutes. Or let time slip.
