“Amakoekoe”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 18, 2013

Excellent boutique hotel with a professional staff and family rooms. The hotel was close to many Jo-burg attractions and 30 minutes from O.R Tambo. Of note, the chef came in at 5:30 AM to make sure we had a hot breakfast before we left for the airport. We told him that it wasn't necessary, but he wouldn't hear of it. Amazing service.

“Friendly service, clean and great for what we needed”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 8, 2010

We went to Johannesburg for the first time to watch a concert at the Coco Cola Dome, so the location of the guest house was perfect for us and the staff were very welcoming and helpful when we needed help with directions and ordering a taxi. They were also very professional when I was booking. The rooms were very clean, we had everything we needed and they added some welcoming touch's with chocolates on the bed and a jar of biscuits and rusks with the coffee and tea. Breakfast was also great in the morning before our long drive home. The only small problem I had was low water pressure in the bathroom. The area you have to drive through and the entrance also made me a bit nervous but I was pleasantly surprised.
