Le Quartier Français Reviews
“Really enjoyed out dinner at Le Quartier Francais. Of all the fine dining we did in South Africa, this set menu was the most “African” one when it comes to flavours and colours. Lovely staff. Would recommend it.”-emmturner
“A lovely stay for a couple of days. The weather was superb so we relaxed at the pool and ordered our light lunch to there. What a nice treat, in the afternoon a waitress came round the pool with a fresh fruit ice lolly which was infused with all sorts of herbs and ginger, delicious. “-Gibo47
“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at QF, our bedroom overlooked the pretty garden and pool area and was very spacious and quiet. The reception staff were very helpful and friendly and we loved the breakfast which was of a very high standard. We also ate in the tapas restaurant one Eve and the dishes were of a very high standard and delicious, we would definitely return!”-sweetpBham
