Having arrived very early morning from a overnight flight hoping for a bed but much before check-in time, the staff did their best to find me a solution and in fact allowed me to check in early! Thank you! Very comfortable beds, yummy food and amazing service.

I had the absolute pleasure of staying at The Bryanston Boutique for two weeks and I genuinely didn’t want to leave. From the moment I arrived, I felt completely at home. The location is perfect, peaceful, safe and conveniently situated in Johannesburg’s Bryanston area. The guest house itself is spotless, with a beautiful garden that adds a sense of calm and charm to the whole experience. My room was incredibly spacious and the bed, honestly one of the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in! What truly makes this place special, though, is the people. The staff are friendly and attentive and together with the host, go above and beyond to make sure every guest feels welcome and cared for. It’s clear that a lot of love and thought goes into every detail. This place offered me comfort, security and that “home away from home” feeling. I can’t recommend The Bryanston Boutique enough. I’ll definitely be back!

My stay at Fishbird Art Deco Villa was absolutely lovely. Percy and Xavier are fantastic hosts who truly looked after us—we always felt safe and cared for. Every morning, Percy prepared the most delicious breakfasts with special touches and great attention to detail. He is an excellent chef, and we thoroughly enjoyed our breakfasts on the terrace. As for the villa itself, it is exquisitely decorated, with beautiful wooden floors, stunning period light switches, and elegant lighting. It feels like a true piece of Johannesburg’s architectural history. The house has a warm, sunny atmosphere, beautiful vast views to the north, and a lovely big swimming pool. When I visit that side of town again, I would absolutely book Fishbird Villa without hesitation. Thank you, Xavier & Percy, for such a special experience!

The facilities at this hotel were a pleasant surprise. Though budget, there were toiletries provided, breakfast at an additional charge of ZAR 110 and there is a full lunch and dinner menu too. The bar is fairly stocked and there is a pool as well. We watched the Rugby World Cup in the dining area (TV is faulty as it kept blacking out). Location is close to Sandton City. The hotel is gleaming and the rooms are spotless - kudos to the cleaning staff.
