Guest Reviews

- Michael (9/5): -
- Bruce (10/5): Will go back if we need to be in JHB. - The breakfast was great. Extremely conveniently located for our purposes
- Charlotte (10/5): Super séjour - Franchement, super expérience au Glendower View ! Le logement était vraiment top : une chambre confortable, avec une salle de bain immense (gros coup de cœur), et un petit-déjeuner hyper copieux et délicieux pour bien commencer la journée.
Le personnel était adorable, toujours disponible et très accueillant, ce qui rend le séjour encore plus agréable. On a aussi eu la chance d’organiser une demi-journée à Soweto avec Keith, et c’était clairement un moment fort du séjour. L’excursion est totalement flexible : on peut choisir ce qu’on veut voir avec lui, ce qui est un vrai plus. On a pu visiter Vilakazi Street, les tours de Soweto, et surtout en apprendre énormément sur l’histoire de l’Afrique du Sud, l’apartheid et Nelson Mandela. C’était passionnant et très enrichissant.
Autre point super pratique : Keith nous a même raccompagnés directement à l’aéroport, ce qui simplifie vraiment l’organisation.
Enfin, l’emplacement est idéal, avec plein de très bons restaurants accessibles à moins de 5 minutes à pied.
Seul regret : ne pas être resté plus longtemps qu’une nuit ! Une adresse que je recommande sans hésiter. RAS
- Mark (10/5): -
- Nikki (8/5): Comfortable, spacious room. Friendly staff! - I was warmly welcomed to a comfortable room. The shower was great! I tried getting a hold of the staff just after knock-off time (having been given a number to dial) with no luck. The following morning, I ordered my fried eggs medium and got them dissapointingly hard...
- Dean (10/5): Thanks, we would book again if we have meeting in that area again - Hi, everything was great, friendly staff and very clean, the most important. Location was also close to shops and main highways
- Jonathan (10/5): I have stayed here many times before, the rooms are comfortable and the staff are very friendly. -
- Chantal Lauren (10/5): Great option for companies needing conferencing and accomodation - Thank you so much for being so accommodating and looking after our Sales Team. The extra mile on extended Dinners and being so flexible really went a long way.
Wonderful staff. nothing happy with all

- Tshepo1984 (7/5): A wonderful stay in Edenvale. - The easy access to the property. It is not far away from the major routes. Also close to the shopping centres. You can walk to the shops. It is easy to access the guest house at all times with no hindrance. The staff were friendly throughout our stay. Unfortunately could not eat the breakfast but the food options are decent. Not much.
- Tobias (8/5): Zimmer waren sauber, Lage und Sicherheit gut, doch ansonsten wenig glanzvoll. - Da sich die Einrichtung in einem abgeschlossenen Areal befindet, hat man ein sehr sicheres Gefühl. Das Frühstück war sehr einfach und es gab sehr wenig Auswahl.
- victoria (10/5): Awesome - The room was spacious, clean and airy
The breakfast was delicious
- Furtado (10/5): City Green Lung - Attention to detail. It made it easy to tag on another night 🌙 🙌
- Susanne (7/5): - Für unseren zwischen stopp perfekt ! Mit dem Flieger angekommen , eingecheckt, Golf gespielt ( Royal Johannisburg,sehr schön)
Dort sehr gut zu Abend gegessen , morgens gutes Frühstück und dann N3 zu den Drakensbergen!
Daher Lage super! Und Besitzerin sehr freundlich !! Danke
- LukeSilviaCombo (10/5): Great quiet retreat in Johannesburg - Manager was very friendly and was on hand to greet me at check in. The night staff were very accommodating of my early morning check out as well as helping me order uber eats to their property. The property itself was comfortable and quiet and had a hot running shower. It is in a nice secure neighbourhood just behind a large golf course. I would stay here again.
- Motena (9/5): -
- Laurine (10/5): Superbe logement - L emplacement sécurisé, chambre très propre et bien équipée. Personnel très agréable. Petit déjeuner excellent Rien
- Daniel (9/5): Kurz und gut 😌 - Wir haben nur unseren letzten Tag der Reise in dieser Unterkunft verbracht und waren rundum zufrieden. Die Lage war für uns perfekt, um den Roadtrip entspannt ausklingen zu lassen und in Ruhe auf unseren Heimflug zu warten.
Besonders hervorheben möchten wir den sehr entgegenkommenden Late Check-out, der ohne Aufpreis möglich war – wir durften das Zimmer bis 17:00 Uhr nutzen, was bei unserem Nachtflug äußerst angenehm war.
In fußläufiger Entfernung befindet sich zudem ein Kaufhaus mit mehreren Restaurants, die wir sehr empfehlen können.
Ein kurzer, aber wirklich erholsamer Aufenthalt – wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen! -
- Roger Middleton (7/5): Served my purposes. - The property itself was fine and met my requirements for one night but the location was on a busy street and would not have suited me for longer. Service
- Dirk (10/5): -
- Chantel (10/5): -
- Eric (8/5): Well positioned and functional -
- Wilson (10/5): -
- Sherri Diane (9/5): Great and comfortable stay! Would book in again. - Very clean and the staff were terrific! A little pricey
- Jose (10/5): -
- Alan (9/5): - Lisa and her team were exceptional
- Ebrahim (10/5): Everything was perfect. Friendly and accommodating staff. - Good location, near eating places and easy enough for delivery drivers/ride hailing drivers to find. Fuel station as close as could possibly be. Easy access to highways. The manager reached out days before we were due to arrive with advice on how best to access the facility and with contact details for after hours staff should we need it. We would've liked more bathroom amenities (soap/shower gel) in the room. Since it was 2 of us in the room, the amount provided wasn't enough. When we asked, they gladly gave us more but 2 of each from the beginning would've been better :-)
- Siobhan (9/5): - Very convenient for an overnight stay from the airport. Comfortable, excellent communication and peaceful.
- Sharon (9/5): -
- Scott (10/5): -
- Herman (10/5): Lovely stay, very recomendable! - We had a lovely stay, everything was well organized.
- Christine (9/5): - Breakfast was adequate. I stayed over night awaiting international next day. I was delayed and staff graciously waited to check me in. Hot water, comfy bed and quiet. All I needed for a great night's rest. Room was a little dark for my preference but didn't affect my stay.
- Jackson (10/5): -
- Andrea (9/5): Pleased stay 😀 - Extreme good communication Nothing
- Irvine (9/5): Cute place, relaxing stay - Always a nice place to stay. Generally feels safe, can come and go whenever, staff is polite. Clean, nice rooms. My only complaint is the bathroom had a large window and the blinds did not seem to be fully opaque.

Location was near the office I needed to visit, staff way very friendly I didn't know how to get back into the guest house when returning late at night (around 10pm), but I am not from South Africa so the concept of the gates is foreign to me so maybe I should have figured it out
