Riboville Boutique Hotel and Restaurant

I have been to the hotel a few times lately and have had good service and good food. My best experience though was on a warm spring Sunday afternoon when there is jazz music outside. I did find that the staff was a bit overwhelmed with big numbers though, with the service getting much slower.

The restaurant was awful. Had to look for a waiter to take our order. The order took ages to arrive and was then incorrect. What arrived was not what was offered on the menu. Requested no dressing. Dressing was on the rice. Chilli mayonnaise on sushi….Expensive to boot.

Set in the beautiful waterfall equestrian estate, a five-star destination, Riboville boutique hotel, flaunting a picturesque castellan barn architecture, overlooking the greenest polo field, makes for a scenic spot to enjoy a sundowner just before delighting your palate with a delicious meal prepared by their uber talented chef. I opted for the springbok carpaccio roses as a starter and the duck as a main, and the flavours and textures were perfection. Mike ordered the sushi, which was so fresh and delicious, it melted in your mouth. Dessert, was too good to turn down, every calorie Riboville goes beyond being just a restaurant and boutique hotel, as they provide a glimpse into the quintessential lifestyle, boasting an exclusive range of premium local and international wine collections, and leaving you in the very capable hands of Brian, their sommelier, who is there to guide you when looking for the perfect wine to pair with your meal. And if you have a keen eye for art, the Riboville Art Gallery exhibits works from the continents emerging contemporary artists and designers. All in all our experience at Riboville was elegant and relaxing, and we were well taken care of by their very efficient staff.

Amazing hotel, 45mins away from the airport just outside of joberg centre. Rooms, service, food all excellent and will look to stay here again when on business! Taxi service provided by hotel was safe, reliable and reasonably priced to take me to the office. Thank you!
