After two weeks of exploring Africa, this was our final stop in Johannesburg—and we couldn’t have asked for a better ending. Natasha, our host, was absolutely wonderful.

Staying at Agterplaas Guesthouse was such a unique experience — the property itself has so much character and charm, like stepping into a beautifully curated home with history.

The property is beautifully maintained and has a unique, historic charm—perfect for travelers looking for something different. We arrived during a chilly evening and morning, which was expected since the building doesn’t have central heating, but that only added to its authentic character. Prisca, the host, was incredibly welcoming and attentive—her warmth truly made us feel at home. It was an ideal start to our South African adventure, combining comfort with local flair. Despite the cooler temperatures, we appreciated the thoughtful touches throughout the stay. A standout choice for anyone seeking a memorable and personalized experience in Johannesburg.

I regret booking this place and wouldn't recommend it to anyone, not even my closest friends or family. My stay turned unpleasant after reading the receipt details—especially as a solo female traveler, I felt uneasy knowing the terms and conditions offered no protection or accountability for personal risks. The wording clearly states that everyone entering the facility does so entirely at their own risk, which made me question the safety and professionalism of the property. If I had seen this disclaimer earlier, I wouldn’t have bothered booking in the first place. The overall experience fell short of expectations, with poor communication, lack of guest support, and a sense of neglect. For travelers seeking comfort and security, this is definitely not the right choice.

Park Hyatt Johannesburg truly exceeded my expectations. The location is perfect—just a short walk from the city center and close to great restaurants and shopping spots.

I especially appreciated the welcome gift upon check-in—it felt personal and thoughtful. Breakfast was a highlight: a wide variety of fresh, delicious options, from local flavors to classic Western dishes. Every detail felt intentional. This hotel delivers luxury without pretense, and the value is outstanding. I’d definitely come back and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Johannesburg.

I stayed at Central Lodge in the Houghton area of Johannesburg, which was recommended by the friendly manager of Monarchy Guest House where I initially booked. Though I can't find the listing on TripAdvisor anymore, here’s my honest take on the place. While Johannesburg isn’t typically considered a tourist hotspot—unlike Cape Town, which I visited next—I was pleasantly surprised by how comfortable and secure my stay was. The property sits within a spacious, gated compound, tucked away in a quiet, low-key neighborhood that feels safe and peaceful. My room had several nice touches: a surprisingly spacious bed, a flat-screen TV with decent channels, and a clean, private bathroom. No meals are served on-site, but just a short walk around back leads to Burger King and a Sasol gas station with a solid selection of breakfast options in the morning. For sightseeing, Constitution Hill—the city’s premier landmark—is just a 10- to 15-minute taxi ride away. This historic site once housed Nelson Mandela and Mahatma Gandhi, and offers an impressive rampart for panoramic views of the city. Nearby is Park Station, the main transport hub, where I caught the Gautrain to Pretoria for a day trip and later boarded a bus bound for Cape Town. All in all, despite the city’s reputation, this location offered great convenience, comfort, and peace of mind. It’s definitely a smart choice if you’re visiting Johannesburg and want a quiet, well-connected base.
