Lovely manicured grounds, nice sized rooms, it has that ubiquitous boutique hotel chic. It is a welcome sight for weary travelers and it feels like it's all there. except in the details things don't hold up. greasy breakfasts (and i was reminded although breakfast was included, the tip wasn't so...), i will second a previous post mentioning that the salmon... more

Although we only had one night at The Peech Hotel, the service, accomodations, and attention to detail amazed us. Free room service for dinner was a nice added touch, in addition to heated towel racks! Scattered rose petals and tea lights were a nice surprise for our honeymoon! Thank you! more

My wife and I stayed at the Peech for three independent nights in September. While we were in and out of the hotel on three separate occasions over the course of two weeks, the excellent level of service never changed. Highly recommended for anyone staying in Joburg for the first time. There are a couple of great restaurants nearby and... more

Thanks for your feedback. I am off to the airport tomorrow and will check our directions to and back from the airport! To be honest we wrote them a while back and I know that there has been some road work at the "Gillolies" inter-section where you found it confusing. I will pass on your compliments to the staff.

We stayed here for one night in one of the suites. The room was excellent, restaurant was nice and overall styling of the hotel was great. Location also good - within easy reach of various shops and services. My only gripe was that there was no hot water when we arrived (early evening) and it hadn't even heated up in... more

Management response from
CooperP, Owner

I sincerely apologise for the lack of hot water - and realise that is was not what you expected in a boutique hotel (especially after a long journey). We do run solar geysers with electrical backups but a staff error had turned off the electrical backup. I am sorry that this tainted your experience with us. We have since re-done...

I haven't been so pleasantly surprised and impressed by a hotel in years! The staff's welcome, the beautifully appointed room and attention to detail were all superb - down to the electric blanket for a chilly winter's night.! The hotel's open layout, pool, herb garden, lawn and huge trees give it charm and privacy - yet it's just minutes from... more

I booked the Peech for two nights in Johannesburg, and was very happy with it. I would have no hesitation in recommending it to my friends. It is not a typical hotel, as the rooms are separate from the main building, set in the leafy garden, and this makes it a very pleasant experience. I enjoyed seeing the squirrels and... more

We stayed at the Peech on 2 occasions in February 2009. The hotel is a well presented boutique hotel in a secure residential neighbourhood. Quite close to the Wanderers Stadium and the commercial district of Melrose Arch (with a range of excellent restaurants) - both about 500 metres away. It is about 30 minutes to the airport (off peak) -... more
