Look, if all you're looking for is a free shuttle to and from the airport and a basic but clean room in close proximity to Johannesburg airport then you probably won't go far wrong with this venue. The service is very basic and you should avoid eating here at all costs unless you are starving. The shuttle driver was reserved... more

We spent 2 nights at this hotel-- or shall we say dungeon-- one night on the way to our safari and one night after the safari. We all felt more dirty after our showers than before, plus we almost froze ourselves into icicles! There was one measly "wall heater" that didn't even WORK so even after adding 3 extra blankets... more

The guesthouse is located in a suburb of Johannesburg called Kempton Park with close access both to JNB and the area's major highways. Reception was helpful... more

Close to J'berg airport; great price; clean room; free airport pick up and drop. No frills but very solid and very nice. more

My partner and I arrived in Jo'burg late afternoon and stayed one night at the Emerald Guest House in Kempton Park. We were met at the airport by a driver and ten minutes later we arrived at a lovely guest house complex with many rooms, swimming pool, small bar and restaurant. Owner Nico and his wife were most friendly and... more
