I stayed at HomeBase Melville Hostel for over two weeks, and it quickly became my favourite spot in Johannesburg. The hostel is located within a secure compound, making it feel safe and welcoming—perfect for solo travelers or those looking to settle in for a while. The Wi-Fi is reliable, the hot showers work great, and having access to shared kitchens makes cooking your own meals easy and cost-effective. The staff are genuinely friendly and always ready to help—especially appreciated after I was mugged downtown. They went above and beyond to support me, which made a huge difference. The neighborhood itself is vibrant: 7th Street is packed with restaurants and bars, ideal for evening outings. Just a short walk away, you’ll find the Koppies Nature Reserve and Botanical Gardens—great spots for hiking, fresh air, and escaping city chaos. Supermarkets like Spar and Pick&Pay are conveniently close, so grocery runs are hassle-free. Getting into the city is simple too—public transport options include the Rea Vaya C4 and T3 bus lines, which are affordable and efficient. For more flexibility, Bolt and Uber taxis are reasonably priced outside peak hours. Overall, this hostel offers a fantastic balance of safety, comfort, convenience, and local charm. Highly recommended for anyone exploring Joburg on a budget.

Host Sonny went above and beyond with his warm hospitality—he shared local tips, made us feel welcome, and was always available when needed. We’d definitely stay here again if we ever return to this part of the city. One thing to note: the driveway is quite steep, so low-clearance vehicles should proceed with caution.

As American travelers in South Africa, we quickly learned that 'You are welcome' isn't just a polite response to 'thank you'—it's an open-hearted greeting. From the moment we arrived at Ten 2nd Avenue, we felt genuinely embraced. The hotel shuttle drivers were safe, friendly, and always ready with helpful tips. Every staff member we met was courteous, attentive, and thoughtful. They’d often call us on the hotel phone right when we realized we needed something—asking if we needed exactly that. Breakfast each morning was a delight, carefully prepared, and served with genuine care. The property itself was secure, spotless, cheerfully decorated, and beautifully landscaped. Our only regret? Not staying longer. We’re already planning our return visit!
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.

The hotel has such a unique, eclectic vibe with beautifully designed lounging areas on each floor—perfect for relaxing or unwinding after a long day. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, and the breakfast was fresh, delicious, and well-prepared. The only minor issue was that one of the balcony doors in our room lacked curtains or shades, but since we were on the third floor, it didn’t really affect privacy or comfort. Overall, this place exceeded our expectations. The ambiance, attention to detail, and warm hospitality made it unforgettable. I’d absolutely book again if I ever return to Johannesburg.
