PepperTree is a fantastic guest house. I was in the Zebra room which is a very spacious high quality facility. The fitout is top quality, the bed linen is high quality cotton and the whole place is super clean. The breakfast delivered in a hamper style basket each morning at your chosen time is fantastic. And it gets better. Angie the host is simply the best, so helpful, so accommodating and she is supported by the lovely Gloria. Rosebank Mall only 10 mins walk away is huge and with good quality shops and restaurants in the surrounding area PepperTree will definitely be my choice when next visiting Johannesburg.

Rivonia Guest House has more rooms than what we thought. Spacious. Kitchen asnyou come in with microwave, fridge, kettle and Smart TV and Internet Wifi. Comfortable bed which is high, with soft linen. Cleaning was done each day by two passionate ladies who insisted that they want to do so, each day, not only on our departure. There was both a coffee table and chair, and a work-desk and chair, as well. The Manager, Vasco, made us feel welcome and at home from the first moment of meeting each other at the gate. He showed us to the rooms and assured us that henis easily reached at all times althougu we didn't needn to. On departure, we said our goodbye"s and again, it felt like leaving home, as we felt comfortable and could easily communicate and got along well. It was all we needed and more. Oh, and there was an iron and iron board and hairdryer as well, hangers in the cupboard and charging plugs at the bedside tables. No carpets, but tiles, just loose small carpets. Which is ideal. The water was hot, and there was soap, shampoo and hand wash, and enough toilet paper and coffee, tea, etc. sachets. You can even let them know if you need more coffee or milk sachets. We were very comfortable and will stay there again. Thank you Vasco and Team!

As much as we got the late, the sun was long gone, I could tell the place is beautiful.. it was so nice and quiet. The room was really clean from inside out. Clean sheets, fluffy pillows... was received by Mark. Nice guy.. and Sharon was such a sweetheart. The breakfast was awesome. Inthira also, with the massage services, as someone who got a massage from a professional for the 1st time, it really felt good. I'm truly happy. I'll definitely be making a return. 🥰🥰
