The Alpine Inn Hotel’s main building is a traditional old Cape Dutch style house, nestled in the tranquil Garden Route area of South Africa.
The Alpine Inn Hotel is designed on a German theme and is characterized by the traditional meaning of the German word “Stube”, which describes a cosy, family orientated environment with a traditional German atmosphere and delicious German cuisine. We offer friendly German hospitality to all our guests.
Our beautiful Hotel Village comprises cottages, suites and apartments and also features a Tea Garden, a cosy bar and a German Restaurant. Other facilities include a Conference Centre and an exclusive Beauty Salon.
The Alpine Inn Hotel is located directly opposite the entrance of the renowned Fancourt Golf Estate and is a comfortable sojourn catering for both the business traveller and the holidaymaker. We have private suites for Newlyweds and also family friendly accommodation.
The Alpine Inn Hotel is only seven kilometers from both the George Airport and the historic town of George. It is also within easy reach of the many attractive tourist destinations on the Garden Route and the Outeniqua Country Hop (which winds up from the delightful Herold’s Bay on the R404, through scenic farmlands to explore strawberry and herb farms, cheese stalls and candlemaking – where adults and children alike can enjoy the great outdoors, strawberry picking, horse riding and a bird sanctuary).
The area consists of a remarkable blend of mountains, rivers and forests (both indigenous and cultivated). Colourful shrubs and wildflowers abound and the beaches are glorious! No wonder the Hottentots, who inhabited the district, named the area Outeniqua which means “man laden with honey”.
Garden Route
This area, a rival to the ancient garden of Eden, gets its name from the tranquil lakes, unspoilt estuaries and lagoons and dramatic mountains including the Wilderness Area, Tsitsikama National Park, Storm\'s River Gorge, Knysna and its lagoon as well as the long stretches of beach in the beautiful Plettenberg Bay. Just behind the coastal belt with its miles of golden beaches and rugged cliffs plunging almost vertically down to rock strewen beaches lie well-watered coastal plains with indigenous forests and fynbos covered mountain slopes. In the eastern section lies Baviaanskloof, a rugged mountain wilderness, the Amatola Mountain range, with its magnificent indigenous forest and beautiful waterfalls, The Zuurberg Mountain range and Addo Elephant Park, named after the magnificent animals that are its main but not only attraction. The park is also home to the black rhino and flightless dung beetle. It is the start of the mountain range that forms the backbone of the country, namely the mighty Drakensberg. Activities in this area include hiking, scuba diving, and other adventure sports to just lazing in luxury on the golden beaches and in 5 star forest hide-always.
Climate: The Garden Route region enjoys a moderate climate all year round. Lowest rainfall occurs during winter with a yearly average of 770mm. The average temperature in January is 26C and during the winter months (June – August) falls to about 18C – still ideal conditions for outdoor activities.
We look forward to welcoming you to nature’s beauty and the tranquil environment of the Garden Route…..and the Alpine Inn Hotel.
