3-Star Hotels in Gauteng, South Africa

The reception service was very good . however, the staff at the restaurant were unfriendly, almost like a canteen. The room i stayed in did not have a door for the bathroom. Also one of the cups already had a crack and it leaked. The water in the kettle was full when i arrived. The toilet was reasonably clean. The pick up and drop off service to airport was good. I must commend the drivers to be friendly , helpful and on time. The gardens were very pretty.

The location is secure, i felt safe, close to airport so i didnt spend much on uber when heading there, spacious, well lit. The corridor had some slight smell of cigarette but not inside the room. I wish they could provide drinking water instead of selling it. I am heading back there in 2 days, wonderful place

Checked in and had to wait for an hour for electricity no updates provided my room was near the power room so I could hear doors opening and closing and the electricity physically clicking and tripping. On and off on and off. When I settled into bed with light off, I received a knock at the door by guest asking me to open the gate for them as they did not receive a gate key. I a single female then had to get up put on clothes and go outside to let their guest out. I got over the lights shining into room and gaps in front door leading to courtyard with a blind that was blowing forward and basically showing me inside in any state. The electricity issue was happening consistently and could hear them walking in and out constantly. Wednesday I had a big presentation and got up at 05:30 to no electricity or update. I had to call them for information and was offered a flash light. I did my presentation with my hair undone due to not being able to use my hair machine. The owner found me in the smoking section and apologised worried he would be receiving a 1 star. I told him I wouldnt as I am in the service industry and him apologising is good enough. However I was further disappointed by more electricity issues and no update. I had to get ready with front door open and all blinds open to do my hair and makeup. Guests were walking past requesting updates, we had to reach out to them. No information provided. Shocking.

All was well, the place was good. Good service from the front desk. But as a traveler with limited luggage there are some things we need eg. shower caps, bottled water, hair dryer.

Review for OR Tambo Guest House I recently stayed at OR Tambo Guest House for three nights and had a great experience. Since my flight arrived very late at night, the staff kindly suggested a driver to pick me up, which was incredibly thoughtful and made my arrival stress-free. The guest house was impeccably clean (5/5), and the service was excellent (5/5) – the staff was friendly, accommodating, and attentive throughout my stay. The location was convenient (4/5), being close to the airport, though not much else is within walking distance. The amenities were decent (4/5), offering all the basics I needed for a comfortable stay. While the aesthetic wasn’t my favorite (3/5), it didn’t take away from the overall experience. Breakfast had limited options, but I wasn’t upset about it – it was enough to start the day. Overall, it’s an affordable place to stay, offering great value for the price. I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a clean and convenient spot near OR Tambo Airport.

We enjoyed our stay; the breakfast was scrumptious with plenty of options to choose from. Rooms were spotless and hotel staff were always ready to assist us

Its strategically located and the food was very good and we managed to have papu (sadza) which made us to feel at home. The kitchen staff was professional when we made our request for our dinner and also for our packed breakfast. The check in and out process was very smooth.

Overall a very good stay. Clean. Coffee,tea, sugar and creamer provided. Staff very friendly. There are delivery motorbikes parked inside the parking. They are very noisy and we're busy until around 24:00. Our matress had a wire sticking out on one side, but we slept well.

Amazing hospitality

This is definitely the best choice for a transit stay at Johannesburg Airport. It's less than a 10-minute walk from the terminal, located right on top of the parking garage, so you don't even have to go outside, which feels very safe.
