The Cliffside Boutique Getaway
If I could give more than 10 stars, I would have absolutely done it here—this place was truly exceptional! Nestled in a luxurious neighborhood, the area feels safe and peaceful, while the villa itself is beautifully appointed with tasteful decor and stunning artwork throughout. It’s the perfect retreat if you’re looking for tranquility, security, discreet hospitality, indulgent experiences, great food, and just a little movement—all without being far from attractions, thanks to affordable Uber rides. We had the best breakfasts of our entire three-week trip across South Africa (and 11 different stays!), plus memorable lunches and dinners featuring creative, standout dishes and surprisingly affordable wines. On our final day, we treated ourselves to a duo relaxation massage—perfectly arranged and utterly blissful. We stayed in the Cliffside room: spacious, elegant, with a gorgeous bathroom, private terrace, and garden overlooking the cliff. We even climbed up to the top for breathtaking panoramic views—absolutely unforgettable. The main pool area, with its incredibly comfortable loungers, wrapped up the experience perfectly. The staff are incredibly kind and professional, striking the ideal balance between boutique hotel charm and private villa freedom—so you can unwind without feeling isolated or confined. If we ever return to Johannesburg, this will be our first choice without hesitation.
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.
Liz at Lancaster Guesthouse
This is our second visit to Liz at Lancaster Guesthouse, and we were thrilled to stay in the same room as before—everything felt familiar and welcoming. Nestled in the bustling northern suburbs of Johannesburg, this place offers a peaceful retreat from the city’s fast pace. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home. Our room was immaculately clean throughout our stay, with cozy bedding and thoughtful touches that made all the difference. It’s a great spot for travelers who want a quiet, comfortable base while still being close to everything the city has to offer. We’d definitely come back again—highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxed, well-run guesthouse in a convenient location.
Moonflower Cottages
This place is truly a hidden gem. The location is perfect—quiet and peaceful, yet still within easy walking distance of restaurants, bars, and local shops. I even walked to the Johannesburg Botanical Garden without any hassle. Grocery stores and pharmacies are just a short stroll away, making daily essentials super convenient. Jamie, who runs the property, is incredibly friendly, responsive, and genuinely helpful—always ready to assist with tips or recommendations. I stayed here twice, each time in a different cottage, and both were clean, well-maintained, and full of charm. On my second visit, I was upgraded to Cottage 4—the one I affectionately called my 'Princess Tower'—and it was absolutely stunning. Spacious, cozy, and beautifully decorated, it felt like a little retreat all its own. The driver Chris, recommended by Jamie, was also fantastic—he’s reliable, professional, and went out of his way to help me on multiple occasions. From start to finish, the experience was seamless and memorable. This isn’t just a stay—it’s a home-away-from-home with heart.
Pablo House
This place is absolutely my favorite hotel in Johannesburg! The ambiance is simply perfect—calm, stylish, and full of character. I loved the view from the room, which made every moment feel special. The staff went above and beyond with their kindness and attention to detail—truly unforgettable. The meals were exceptional, especially breakfast, which was fresh, delicious, and thoughtfully prepared. It’s clear that passion goes into every aspect of the experience. I can’t wait to come back again—it’s already on my list for next trip!
Leighwood Lodge
After a long overnight flight, Leighwood Lodge was exactly what we needed — a peaceful retreat in a quiet and safe neighborhood just about 30 minutes from the airport. It’s walkable to several great restaurants, and Rosebank is only a short distance away, making it super convenient for dining and exploring. The rooms are spacious, very quiet, and thoughtfully equipped with everything you’d want for a comfortable stay — even a microwave! Breakfast was excellent, and if you ask ahead, they’ll prepare a delicious homemade dinner for you. The owners and staff are incredibly warm and helpful, going out of their way to make sure we felt welcome before and during our visit. We left feeling refreshed and truly relaxed. Without hesitation, we’ll be coming back next time we’re in Johannesburg.
B&B on Buckingham
From the moment I arrived, Gavin and Loui greeted me with genuine warmth—Gavin even helped carry my luggage, which made a great first impression. The room was immaculately clean and thoughtfully prepared, with a beautifully written welcome note that included all the essential info right where I could see it. Everything I needed was already in the room—no need to call for anything. The location is quiet and safe, just a short drive from several excellent restaurants. It’s also super convenient for getting around town, with easy access to public transit. I felt completely at ease throughout my stay. A truly welcoming and well-managed place—highly recommend for anyone visiting Johannesburg.
Saffron Guest House
Staying at Saffron Guest House in Melville, Johannesburg was an absolute delight. Nestled at the end of a vibrant and trendy street, it's perfectly positioned—close enough to enjoy the buzz of local restaurants, cafes, and bars, yet far enough to unwind in peace and quiet. The rooms are beautifully decorated with a thoughtful blend of style and comfort, making every moment feel special. I especially loved the lush gardens that create a serene, homey atmosphere. It’s great to see new dining spots popping up around the area since my last visit—adds even more charm to this already fantastic neighborhood. This place truly offers a unique balance of urban energy and peaceful retreat. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a memorable stay.
84 on Fourth Guest House
The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Our family room came with a fully equipped kitchen, which was perfect for enjoying a relaxed breakfast in the comfort of our accommodation before heading out to explore the city. The place was well-maintained, cozy, and spotlessly clean—exactly what you want when traveling. While we didn’t get to use the shared indoor and outdoor areas much due to being out most of the time and the weather not being ideal, it’s great to know they’re available if needed. It’s clear the hosts care about guest comfort and experience. This stay exceeded expectations, and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a warm, convenient, and well-kept base in Johannesburg.
Arum Place Guest House
Words truly can't do justice to how amazing Arum Place Guest House is. From the moment we arrived, Chichi and her sister Neo made us feel like family—warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive as international guests. The entire stay was exceptional: spotless rooms, thoughtful touches, and top-tier service throughout. Everything from the cozy atmosphere to the local charm felt authentic and well-cared for. It's not just a place to stay—it feels like home. With excellent location, easy access to public transit, and a friendly, personal touch, this is one of those rare finds you won’t forget. I’ll be coming back, and I’ll definitely recommend it to friends and colleagues. A truly unforgettable experience.
Melville Gap Guesthouse
This guesthouse is perfectly located just a stone's throw from 7th Street, where you'll find a fantastic variety of restaurants right at your doorstep. The property itself is incredibly peaceful and beautifully decorated, with everything you need to enjoy meals in-house. Whether you're looking to relax after a long day or simply want to savor a quiet dinner in a cozy setting, this place delivers. It’s clean, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed—every detail feels intentional. I highly recommend it for travelers who value comfort, convenience, and a serene atmosphere.
Maison Jacaranda
The Maison Jacaranda is absolutely beautiful, with a stunning room and exceptional service. However, keep in mind there's no 24-hour front desk—access is secured via a gate code. We booked with breakfast included, but the so-called breakfast was just yogurt and fruit in the room fridge, plus coffee, tea, honey, and granola in the cabinet. Honestly, it wasn’t a real breakfast, which came as a surprise. The neighborhood is quiet and entirely residential—definitely not walkable at night. It’s dark, isolated, and empty after sunset, so relying on rideshare apps like Uber or Bolt is essential. I highly recommend Bolt: it’s fast, half the price of Uber, reliable, and the app works flawlessly. Getting to and from the property was never an issue using Bolt. Overall, if you’re okay with no actual breakfast and need to depend on rideshares for transport, this place offers great value and charm. Highly recommend with full awareness of these details.
