For an overnight stay when flying in/out of JNB international airport, this hotel is exceptionally conveniently located (2 minutes on foot to the terminals, car rental, etc and easy with a baggage trolley). It is comfortable with quiet, spacious rooms (no airport noise), a good if somewhat expensive restaurant, and efficient service. more

I recommend the hotel for all travellers to Johannesburg either for short stay when connecting... more

For starters you just wheel your trolley across the road from the airport, and after we'd been in the wilderness or... more

The room quality is outstanding for an airport hotel, including really comfy beds, plush towels, and stylish furnishings. Although the hotel is literally right next door to a busy airport,... more

We stayed here as part of our honeymoon in June 2009 for an overnight stopover. We’ve stayed at a lot of airport hotels and this has to be one of the nicest.

The hotel is a one minute walk from the international terminal of Tambo airport. Due to the very high crime rate in Johannesburg it is not worth the effort to... more
