B&B on 8th Avenue
Staying at B&B on 8th Avenue was an absolute highlight of our trip to Johannesburg. Denise, the host, is incredibly warm and attentive—always ready to help with recommendations or just a friendly chat. The location in Melville is perfect: quiet yet walkable to all the local gems. We loved strolling along Melville’s main avenue, where there are so many great cafes, restaurants, and bars. Plus, it’s just a short walk to the botanical garden—ideal for a peaceful morning escape. This B&B offers a genuine sense of home away from home, with a cozy atmosphere and top-notch hospitality. If you're looking for a charming, central spot in JNB, this is the place to stay.

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. It’s conveniently located just a short distance from downtown Johannesburg, making it easy to explore the city by public transit or on foot.

I was genuinely impressed by Grand View B&B during my stay in Johannesburg. The rooms were spotless and impeccably maintained—every detail showed care and attention. The security is top-tier, and the staff went above and beyond to make guests feel welcome and safe. They’re kind, attentive, and always ready to help with any request.

Miraton Guest Lodge
Staying at Miraton Guest Lodge was an absolute highlight of my trip to Johannesburg! The hospitality truly went above and beyond—warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive. From the moment I arrived, the hosts were there to greet me, help with luggage, and even gave personalized tips on local spots, including a hidden gem of a BBQ place that turned out to be one of the best meals I’ve had in South Africa. The room was immaculate, comfortable, and quiet—the bed was perfect for a good night’s sleep, and the AC worked flawlessly without any noise. It’s located just steps away from the subway, making downtown access super easy. What stood out most was how personal and thoughtful the experience felt, like staying with friends rather than a hotel. If you’re visiting Johannesburg, this is hands-down my top recommendation. A true gem!
Central Lodge Hotels
The Central Lodge Hotels in Johannesburg is incredibly clean—every corner of the room felt fresh and well-maintained. From the crisp linens to the spotless bathroom, it’s clear they take pride in hygiene and upkeep. The location is convenient for getting around town via public transit, and there are plenty of local eateries nearby. It’s a great value for the quality, and I’d definitely stay here again. Highly recommend for travelers looking for a clean, comfortable base in Johannesburg.
Houghton Guest House
We stayed for four nights at Houghton Guest House, and overall, it was a peaceful and quiet experience—perfect if you're looking to escape the hustle and bustle. The bed was comfortable and cozy, though the bottom sheet had a small hole (nothing major). Room size was just right, with a compact but functional mini-fridge that's a bit old-school, plus tea and coffee-making facilities. WiFi worked well, and MNet connectivity was reliable. The decor felt a little dated, and some items needed attention—like the shower door and bathroom light—but nothing too disruptive. There’s plenty of closet space and a mini safe for valuables. The shower itself is spacious and delivers strong hot water, which is always a win. The property is gated with an electric fence, and night-time security is on duty. All doors are secured with key cards—great for peace of mind. Located in a central spot, it’s convenient for exploring Johannesburg, and we were the only guests during our stay, so privacy was excellent. Breakfast is prepared by Semi, the owner, who charges R100 per person (£5). It includes scrambled eggs, bacon, frankfurters, toast, and unlimited tea or coffee. She cooks on a stove that’s clearly not up to standard—evidence that maintenance isn’t a priority—but her dedication shines through. Semi handles everything: front desk, cleaning, laundry, gate duties, even helping guests with their clothes. She’s shy, humble, and incredibly honest. She’ll happily do your laundry too—just be generous with your tip, as she earns very little. We paid R2000 for four nights, which feels fair given the personal touch and quiet atmosphere. There’s also a shared lounge area with tables and chairs where you can enjoy breakfast or relax. A big thank you to Semi for all your hard work, kindness, and genuine hospitality—it truly makes this guest house special.
Park Hyatt Johannesburg
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. The room was spacious, beautifully designed, and incredibly comfortable, with a plush bed that made for a restful night's sleep. The bathroom had a smart wet/dry separation and high-quality toiletries—small touches that make a big difference. Staff were friendly and attentive, offering genuine hospitality throughout my stay. 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.
Home Suite Hotels Rosebank
This was an absolutely fantastic stay! The hotel is conveniently located just a short walk from Rosebank Mall and the Gautrain station, making it super easy to explore the city. The room was clean, well-maintained, and tastefully decorated—perfect for a relaxing getaway. The staff went above and beyond with their friendly and helpful service, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Everything about this place felt thoughtfully put together. I’d happily book here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Johannesburg.
Houghton Place
Staying at Houghton Place was an absolute highlight of my trip to Johannesburg! The location is perfect—just a short walk from Rosebank, making it easy to explore the area without needing a car. The property itself is beautifully designed, quiet, secure, and feels like a cozy home away from home. The host was incredibly welcoming and friendly, always ready to help with recommendations or just a chat. Breakfast was exceptional—fresh, delicious, and thoughtfully prepared. The staff, especially the housekeeper, were attentive and kind throughout our stay. Hot water pressure was excellent, and the rooms were clean and well-maintained. I truly felt safe and comfortable the entire time. With such great value and a warm atmosphere, I’d definitely come back. Highly recommend this gem if you're visiting Johannesburg!
Monarchy Guest House
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.
