The Peech is a 16-room eco-boutique hotel in the chic suburb of Melrose. The rooms are spread across the one acre gardens & the hotel features a bistro and champagne bar.

The Peech is committed to operating a sustainable hotel & wants a stay at The Peech to have as small an impact as possible on the environment. By renovating an existing structure and introducing eco-friendly solutions like solar water heating, and grey water recycling, The Peech hopes to set an example for other hotels and industries in South Africa.
