Situated in the suburb of Melville in Johannesburg, Lucky Bean Guesthouse features a lush garden and an outdoor pool. The guest house is 1 km from the Country Club.

Stylishly decorated, the bright and spacious rooms offer a patio with garden views, satellite TV and tea-and-coffee making facilities. Free WiFi is available. Everything I could have wanted and more. Conway and Tatiana were exceptional hosts who helped make everything I wanted happen, from arranging transport from the airport to recommending places to eat and visit, to setting up dinner reservations, there was nothing they were not able to do for us. I cannot say we enough good things about them and the rest of the staff. Excellent stay.

The Parkwood is a Luxury Guest Lodge and is 1 km from Killarney Golf Club, while Sandton City Mall is 6 km away. Zoo Lake is a 5-minute drive away and O.R Tambo International Airport can be reached within 30 minutes by car. Beautifully appointed and welcoming lobby. The room was equally lovely. Enjoyed immensely the private patio and outdoor shower. Unanticipated luxury at reasonable rates. Exceptionally comfortable bed and plush sheets and towels. Staff went above and beyond to please and assist.

Located in Houghton, The Residence is a boutique hotel that offers spacious suites with a spa bath, and a balcony overlooking the garden, the fire pit or the outdoor pool.

Each of the air-conditioned suites is elegantly decorated with antique French crystal chandeliers, dramatic velvet drapes and Persian rugs. All the suites have king size beds with pillows of soft goose down and fine Egyptian cottons. Loved every bit of our stay at The Residence. It is on our list to revisit. Exceptional staff, food was amazing. Elegant decor and garden to top it off... an absolute gem!

This boutique hotel Bryanston is a 10-minute drive from Sandton. It has an exotic garden, an outdoor pool with a sun deck and rooms with a flat-screen TV.

The air-conditioned rooms at The Wesley Boutique Hotel & Spa are bright and airy and have tiled flooring. They include a tea/coffee maker and a private bathroom. Some rooms have a private balcony. Everything was so perfect and well thought! The staff is very knowledgeable, kind and helpful. I think words can’t express just how much we enjoyed the experience. Shout out to Giselle, incredibly nice and helpful, she really knows how to make guests feel comfortable and welcomed!

Opulent design and personalized service await guests at Fairlawns Boutique Hotel & Spa. Start the day with breakfast at a time that suits you best. Afterwards, you can enjoy a massage at the spa, where you can also treat yourself to a cleansing facial or traditional South East Asian treatment. Breakfast menu as expected, nothing new about it but the experience, the environment was very nice
