Accolades Boutique Venue

Very beautiful place with awesome gardens and comfortable rooms, very friendly and helpful staff. On arrival, reception were very kind and made a plan to serve some dinner, although we didn't book for dinner, which we appreciated. We were the only ones for dinner though. We were very tired driving from the Cape province and hoping for a good night's sleep. What a disaster. It seemed the 2 ladies next door were there for a wedding the following day, and were busy the whole night, sounded like moving furniture around, walking very close right past our door, walking up and down screaming / talking loudly in their language the whole night going to other rooms. Didn't sleep a wink. The walls are paper thin. Ask the ladies during the night to be quiet as we are trying to sleep. One lady responded with a "sorry". The next morning at breakfast I talked to that dame lady and suddenly she can't understand me and she walked away. Reported it to reception also and they were apologetic and surprised by their behavior. Although it's a beautiful venue with kind and good staff, confirm there are no function the following day or the same night you sleep over.

My sister had her matric dance this past friday at the boutique. The venue was beautiful and I would highly recommend but the service we recieved was absolutely atrocious. When we arrived our photogropher was supposed to take pictures of my sisters entrance but was not allowed to by security guards that were continuesly pushing us off the lawn. There was even one security guard in particular that kept holding my other sister , and when she asked him politely to stop holding her he started swearing at her in his language and she eventually asked how she is supposed to get off the lawn when there are incoming cars, he began to say that we should go when the cars were still moving insinuating that we should "jump infront of the cars" . When we wanted to ask him to atleast apologise , he then walked away. I would recommend going to the Accolades Boutique venue but at your own risk.

Edit to respond to venue reply: there was brocoli, sweet potato and potato wedges - so 2 starches and 1 vegetable option. I had asked for a toasted cheese on white when I was told that I was supposed to eat the accompaniments only as there was no vegetarian option. As the venue, if you are told that there are 2 vegetarians, you should offer an alternative beyond leave out the meat please. We are human and want actual food. The organiser was kind yes, but the sandwich was going to be charged for which was fine but it was not what I asked for. All I asked for was a toasted cheese only, I didn't ask for tomato on it. Again, this is a gorgeous venue but please be more inclusive in terms of meals. Original review. Considering that it is 2025, the standard buffet should offer more than just the vegetable accompaniments and salad as the vegetarian option. Being vegetarian, doesn't mean that I want to starve or be given a strange looking congealed meal after waiting half an hour. How difficult is a simple macaroni and cheese? The venue itself is quite pretty so it is a shame that the food was so disappointing
