The Giglio Boutique Hotel is nothing short of a hidden gem, offering an experience that far surpasses the ordinary. From the moment we arrived, the warm and gracious welcome from the staff made us feel like cherished guests. Every detail of our stay was marked by impeccable service, and the personal touch of the team made all the difference. The highlight of our stay was undoubtedly the restaurant, where every dish was a masterpiece. The food was nothing less than exceptional, showcasing the chef's talent in every bite. Accompanied by an extensive wine list featuring carefully selected labels, the dining experience was a true celebration of flavor and sophistication. Our room was a haven of comfort, with an elegant design that exudes luxury. The bed, especially the mattress, provided the perfect balance of softness and support, ensuring a restful night’s sleep after days of exploration and indulgence. The attention to detail in the room's décor and amenities truly elevated our stay. The hotel itself is a beautiful blend of modern elegance and classic charm. Every corner of the property is thoughtfully designed, creating an ambiance of refinement that invites relaxation. It is truly deserving of ten stars—and more. The Giglio Boutique Hotel is an extraordinary retreat, and we look forward to returning for another exceptional experience.

We asked for an early check in, at 10:00 am. Our room was not ready. They gave us a courtesy room from 10 to 3 pm, without charging extra. Amazing kindness. And the place is beautiful. Highly recommended!

I thoroughly loved the serenity, the decor was amazing, the grounds felt like a retreat in the midst of a city. After what was a lovely stay in Capetown for me, to come here was just so lovely. The food was top notch. The people exceeded expectation. I felt truly well looked after by everyone I engaged with. I lost my data so I’ve forgotten some of the names but I recall Charlotte I think from the restaurant at breakfast. I enjoyed lovely conversations with her amidst great service. Another lady at reception, a manager I think was just amazing, we took some photos and videos as I left to go back home. It was such a memorable stay. Amazing people. Amazing property.
