Find the Cheap Isando Hotels

This hotel is located just outside O.R. Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg. While you will need a taxi, rental car, or shuttle to reach the hotel, the journey is well worth it. There are no nearby dining facilities within walking distance, but the hotel boasts an on-site Irish pub that serves excellent food. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and the breakfast is outstanding. The hotel is fully gated with security measures in place, providing peace of mind during your stay in Johannesburg.

OK, so let's start with the 'not-so-nice stuff'. Look, it is what it is. It's a 3-star (at best), hotel that was converted from apartments into a 'suite' experience hotel. It's cheap as chips, so with that in mind you're obviously not going to expect anything flash. The towels, while clean, could certainly do with being replaced. Overall, a fresh coat of paint would not hurt and the kettle was abysmal - we actually ordered our own kettle from 60/60 - the one in the room had not been descaled in...well, ever. It's very basic accommodation, the telephone in the room didn't work and the extractor above the stove was diabolical. Now, for the good stuff. The staff are AMAZING. So friendly and super helpful, check-in was breezy and even though we arrived a full 2 hours early, we hardly had to wait for our room to be ready. Aside from what I already mentioned, the room itself was SPOTLESS and that made up for the 'niggly' bits. The location is great, just a few minutes from the airport and close to the areas we had business in. Honestly, for what one pays for this place, there are no complaints. You can order from 60/60/ Uber Eats/Mr Delivery and there is a restaurant on site - although we didn't order from them, we left early and came back fairly late so it was just simpler to order in - and they delivered to the room. So all in, if you're not in Jozi for a holiday, then this place is kind of ideal. Internet was fast enough and complimentary and as we literally only used it as a base for our dealings in the big city, it was more than adequate.

Is a nice decent cheap bed and breakfast. Plus the service was superb

Next to the hotel is the casino. The location is very close to the airport. There is a free shuttle bus between the international airports, but it is out of service after 11pm. It takes about 5 minutes to get a taxi.

Ideal location if traveling elsewhere as it is really close to the airport. Professional staff, clean and comfortable rooms with all the amenities. I will definitely stay here again.

I stayed overnight prior to a flight. The room was fine, clean, well equipped, TV had English stations and bed comfy. Breakfast was varied (and very busy!) My issue is the ducted air system. Despite having the AC, fan etc off, the system still blows out air and I found it difficult to sleep as a result as very drying. In the morning, my throat, eyes, mouth and skin were very dry which is unhealthy and unacceptable. My throat and eyes are still uncomfortable and dry a day later despite drinking lots of water and buying saline eye drops.

My stay at the lodge was very pleasant. After many hours of flying, the amenities are sufficient to relax and have a rest before connecting flights or before your next move. Staff at reception were lovely, friendly and helpful. Andrew who is part of staff in charge of pick-up and drop-off, waited quite a while for me the collect baggage and was extremely patient and understanding. I’d highly recommend staying there.

The staff were efficient and cheerful. What more could you ask for? We got the shuttle booked when we checked in, the driver was 15 minutes early. The restaurant servers were helpful and quick. The dinner menu options were a good variety, and the hot breakfast was the best.

Mendior at emperors palace L’hotel è situato a qualche km dall’aeroporto (circa 15 min di navetta o taxi) e fa parte di una struttura con 4 diversi hotel. Struttura datata, reception e in generale servizi non molto efficienti e disponibili, pulizia così così , Wi-Fi poco efficiente, camere con letto comodo, ma ho dovuto far cambiare più volte le chiavi perché non aprivano. ascensore lento, colazione abbastanza valida bei prodotti, servizio un po’ lento . La navetta gratuita verso l’aeroporto parte ogni 30 min. Una valida soluzione per una notte di passaggio a Johannesburg pur se non rispetta a mio parere le 4* di categoria.

Celeste and Peter were the most kindest and unbelievably accommodating hosts I have met to date. From the moment i arrived to the day I left, they showed so much care as to my well being. The Breakfast they served was fit for a King and Queen. I just loved their love and care they shoed. The room I stayed in was spectacularly comfortable and had everything in it to make life so very much relaxing, especially after a hard days work. Even the Shower and bathroom had more than the usual soap that a hotel would normally provide. There was a bathing scrunchy, Shampoo, fragrant bathing and shower gel and just so much more. Every morning, Peter or Celeste would get up early and make sure that the Coffee (specially brewed by them) was ready for me. Seriously, I have never experienced this type of hospitality in all of my travel, whether in South Africa, China, America, Central Africa, and every other place I have been to. Do you know that they even waited up for me when I arrived at 01h00am the one morning because I had been in meetings right into the night - Wow, that was altogether amazing. A very Special thank you to Celeste and Peter from the bottom of my heart. Shane C Bryant
