Hyde Park Guest House
My fiancé and I flew in from Los Angeles to attend my mother’s funeral, and during that deeply emotional time, Hyde Park Guest House became our sanctuary. From the moment we booked through to our arrival and throughout our stay, the warmth, kindness, and genuine care we received—from the staff to the little touches around the property—made us feel truly at home. This five-star guest house in Hyde Park is more than just a place to stay; it’s a heartfelt experience rooted in Ubuntu—the spirit of community, compassion, and humanity. The hospitality was beyond exceptional, and every detail reflected thoughtfulness and respect. It felt like coming home, even when we were far away. We’re already planning our return. Thank you for such a meaningful, healing stay. Ndiyabonga. You’ve touched our hearts. 🫶🏽💐🥰
House on York
Staying at House on York was an absolute delight from start to finish. The location is perfect—just a short walk from the city center, with easy access to public transport and all the local buzz. As soon as you step into the courtyard, you're greeted by a peaceful, thoughtfully designed space that sets the tone for a relaxing stay. The room itself was cozy, well-appointed, and warmly decorated—feels like home away from home. What truly surprised me was finding a small fitness corner tucked in the garden; it’s such a thoughtful touch for guests who want to stay active without leaving the property. The staff went above and beyond—everyone, from front desk team to the manager and even the owner, was incredibly friendly and welcoming. On one evening, the area lost power, and instead of leaving us in the dark, the manager personally brought over two LED lanterns. It was such a considerate gesture that made a big difference. Special shoutout to Tino—he was consistently helpful, professional, and genuinely kind. This place isn’t just a hotel; it’s a true home base with heart. I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Johannesburg, and I’ll definitely be back.

Staying at this hotel was an absolute pleasure. The location is unbeatable—right next to the red hop-on hop-off bus stop, making it super easy to explore Johannesburg’s top attractions. The hotel has a direct elevator access to the shopping mall, so dining and shopping are just steps away. The neighborhood feels safe and quiet, which gave me peace of mind even during evening walks. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, going the extra mile to ensure everything was perfect. Breakfast was excellent—fresh, diverse, and full of local flavors, especially the sausages and fresh fruit platters. For any traveler visiting Johannesburg, this hotel offers the ideal mix of comfort, convenience, and value. Highly recommended!

Muco Guest House
This was the fifth time during my trip that my flight was delayed on departure. Upon arrival, as usual, two men approached me asking if I needed a taxi. I explained I already had a pre-arranged ride, and they called the driver who confirmed he was on his way. Surprisingly, they then asked for payment for 'helping' me—quite unusual, but it happened. The guesthouse is located a bit outside the airport, within a gated complex. It was quite chilly this time of year, so Felix (the driver) kindly took me to a clothing store to pick up a flannel shirt—huge place, great selection. The property itself is impressive: spacious kitchen, large living area, and a well-sized bathroom. There are two pools and a communal meeting space at the office. Breakfast was homemade—fresh bread, cereal, and beverages—all very satisfying. Felix also arranged my tours, which I could charge directly to my room, making everything super convenient. If you head out from the main road, turn right onto the next major street, then left, go up two roads—you’ll find a gas station, restaurants, and shops nearby, so all essentials are close by. The safari tour I went on was about two hours away, but absolutely worth it—great experience! The heater only reached 30°C, and the fan wasn’t very strong, so the room warmed up slowly, but overall, it didn’t detract from the stay. Great location, friendly staff, and excellent value—highly recommend!
Thatchfoord Lodge
My stay at Thatchfoord Lodge was absolutely fantastic! The host went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect—from the moment I arrived, they were warm, welcoming, and attentive to every detail. Every need was addressed promptly, and their genuine hospitality made me feel right at home. The location is ideal—close to everything but tucked away in a peaceful, green setting. The room was clean, well-appointed, and beautifully decorated with thoughtful touches. I especially loved waking up to the sound of birds and the view of the garden from the window. It’s rare to find such a charming, personal touch in a place like this. I’d highly recommend Thatchfoord Lodge to anyone visiting Johannesburg—it’s not just a great value, it’s an unforgettable experience.
City Lodge Hotel Eastgate
Good morning! I'm currently staying in Room 4 and accidentally left my Apple Bluetooth earphone on the floor of my room today. Could someone please help me locate it? I’d really appreciate a quick update if found. Thanks so much!
Dynasty Forest Sandown Self Catering Hotel
Located right in the heart of Johannesburg, this hotel is absolutely stunning—modern design, immaculate cleanliness, and a peaceful atmosphere despite being in a busy area. It feels safe and secure, which is always a plus. I was pleasantly surprised to see so many Chinese guests here, and the owner is also Chinese—communication is effortless, no language barriers at all. The standout feature? Every room comes with a fully equipped kitchen, perfect for cooking your own meals—great for saving money and enjoying home-style food. Even during power outages, the backup generator kicks in seamlessly, so life goes on without interruption. The Wi-Fi is lightning fast, ideal for streaming or working remotely. Honestly, staying here felt more like being at home than in a typical hotel. Comfortable, convenient, and welcoming—I’d definitely come back again.
Elizabeth Manor Guest House
Check-in was super smooth—our host, a lovely white lady, was incredibly welcoming and helped with everything from the start. She even gave us great tips on local spots and how to get around by train to downtown Johannesburg. Safety is top-notch; there’s 24/7 security at the front desk, so we felt completely at ease throughout our stay. The room had all the essentials: strong AC, reliable hot water, and fast Wi-Fi—no missing gadgets here. Cleanliness stood out too—everything was spotless, from the linens to the bathroom, no musty smells or grime. What really impressed us was the quiet atmosphere. Despite being close to the city center, the property is peaceful and well-insulated from street noise, making it perfect for a restful night's sleep. The staff went above and beyond—attentive, friendly, and always ready to help. This place offers incredible value for money, and I’d definitely book again if ever back in Johannesburg.
Ten Stirling B&B
I couldn't be happier with my stay at 10 Stirling B&B! The location is perfect—just a short walk from Melrose Arch, where I spent relaxing afternoons in the spacious garden, swimming, and even playing a quick game of tennis. What truly stood out was how well they accommodated my specific breakfast request, which I submitted during booking. They not only remembered it but delivered exactly what I needed—truly thoughtful and attentive service. From the welcoming atmosphere to the little details, this place feels like a home away from home. Highly recommend for anyone looking for comfort, convenience, and genuine hospitality in Johannesburg.
