New owners for Le Quartier Français

Franschhoek - Le Quartier Français in Franschhoek will enter a new era when Analjit Singh of Leeu Collection and his family take ownership of this well known boutique hotel in the Cape Winelands.

Ownership will pass from Susan Huxter and her family on September 1.  

“With Analjit’s introduction of new offerings and exciting luxury lifestyle contributions to Franschhoek, I feel confident and happy that he and his family are the right people to take Le Quartier Français to the next level," said Huxter. She has offered to work closely with the new owners to achieve a smooth transfer.

Award winning executive chef Margot Janse will stay on.

Singh's latest acquisition forms part of Leeu Collection, which comprises in the first phase, Leeu Estates, a 21 room, five-star luxurious boutique hotel and winery in the Franschhoek valley, and Leeu House, an exclusive and private five-star 12-room boutique hotel in the heart of Franschhoek, set for a phased opening from the last quarter of 2015.

The Le Quartier Français brand will be kept as is and for now only changes such as soft refurbishments and landscaping developments will take place. Further additions and alterations will be considered in 2016.

“I am passionate about South Africa, its energy and sense of place,” said Singh. “This latest acquisition makes me excited because I love to be part of creating something special."
