“Beautiful place, great staff , poorly managed”

Reviewed April 4, 2013

Place is outstandingly beautiful, nice outlook beautiful bathroom and nice sized rooms. That being said- little peturbed as a solo female to have strangers come into my bedroom after sleeping off jetlag. (see Helen review below). They had a key to my room- as their stuff had been moved from it before I came. A bit surprising. That being said,... More

Problem with this review?

We thank you for your feedback and apologize for any inconvenience we might have caused, when we gave you a room for which another guest still had keys. Luckily, as it turned out, the other guests, who had the key to your room, were your friends. What you have interpreted as rudeness was only a reflection of my disappointment at... More

“Lovely Place, Terrible Management”

Reviewed March 26, 2013

The house itself is lovely, very picturesque and in a quiet and safe area which was important as we were travelling as two girls. The staff were also amazingly friendly and polite, couldn't fault them. However mid way through our stay we returned to our room to find out that a stranger was asleep in our bed and that all...

This was done with the best of intentions, as we realized, too late, that you had initially been shown into the wrong room, by the housekeeping staff. You had the opportunity to tell us,... More

“All's well that ends well......”

Reviewed March 25, 2013

We were assigned Room 7 when we arrived at Ikhaya. Our hostess raved that it was her favorite room and that the views were terrific. She was right the views were terrific. However, after lugging our cases up all of those stairs to the top level and seeing the size of the bed (we are big people) we were less... More

I had the opportunity to stay again on my recent trip and I must say, this is the best! I had spent a few night in a major hotel for a conference and like most large hotels, it is loud, noisy and the same as any other. I had the good fortune to switch once the conference ended and it... More

Thank you for your review. It was indeed an unfortunate situation which your party had deal with, from the moment you arrived and were told that we had booked you in on the wrong dates. From then on it was just downhill, as everything seemed to have gone wrong. For us it was the worst experience we have ever had,... More

This was my first time staying at the Ikhaya Guest House in Randburg and I must say, it will not be the last. I spend a lot of time on the road and in hotels of all sorts. This is no hotel and I am glad. It is a B&B that takes pride in providing high levels of service to... More
