“Margaret's Place is the perfect place to stay during your visit to Jozi”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 3, 2013

Margaret feels like a friend from the minute you meet her. She is very hospitable and treats you like a personal guest. The rooms are very well kept and extremely comfortable. Tea, coffee, milk, towels, toiletries were all in full supply, and it felt like home for all the ten days we stayed there. Thank you Margaret!

Room Tip: We stayed in Khanyi which was very comfortable for three and the walk in dressing room was enviable!

“A home away from home”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 24, 2013

For some reason I alwyas forget to write about Margarte`s Place. I stay there everytime I travel to Africa, sometimes at the beginning of the trip, others at the end. Its always so nice to come back there, Margaret always makes you feel welcome. Every time I know I can count on a friendly smiling face waiting for me at the airport.
The rooms (little flats really) have everything you might possibly need to be comfortable, excellent showers, great beds, everything spotless clean. And if you happen to need anything elese, Margaret is always ready to help.
Beautiful pool in case you feel like taking a swim.
The location is very quiet and close to Eastgate shopping mall. Also many restaurants nearby, petrol station, antiques shop, liquor store, etc.
Its is a perfect small and cozy stop over in a very big city.
Until next time Margaret!

“Great stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 18, 2013

Margaret's Place offers a great setup for the traveller - being able to feel at home. Especially as she offers self-catering units, instead of just a bedroom.
I enjoyed my stay and would definitely stay there again!

“great, small, cozy places to be in South Africa”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 14, 2013

this is one of the best cozy places anyone can be in S.A. considering the very fair pricing and also the proximity from town, you can spend more days there. very nice hospitality and very neat as well.
