Condé Nast Traveller UK announced the Gold List for 2017 and we are proud to be assessed one of the 20 best hotels in the world. The editors’ picks for the top hotels in the world span 6 continents and 47 countries. With Babylonstoren listed as one of the favourites by the US editors in 2016, we now celebrate the UK Gold List for 2017.

By keeping things true to the earth, this 1692 Cape Dutch farm was brought to life. 

Above all, we’d like visitors to ground themselves again. To enjoy the mountains all around as much as we do, to pick their own healthy fruit and veg, play pétanque, swim in the farm dam, enjoy an hour in the spa, eat a simple fresh dish at one of the restaurants, walk up the conical Babylonstoren hill, relax in the garden of diversity, await sunset with a glass of wine in hand, and then slip in between sheets of crisp linen and drift away ... more or less,” says Karen Roos.
