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.
