Accommodation in Johannesburg
Johannesburg is a huge, sprawling city with a friendliness and vibrancy all its own. There are numerous types of accommodation available, from suburban bed & breakfast guesthouses to lavish 5-star suites in the various city hubs like near OR Tambo International Airport, Sandton, Rosebank, Randburg and Midrand.
As with most big cities, location is everything. Let us know what you're planning to do in the city and we'll gladly advise you on the accommodation we have personally visited. We are independent operators and are able to give you our honest, unbiased opinion. If you're only in the city overnight before going on safari, it's more suitable to stay at one of the airport lodges and hotels.
However, if you're planning on staying and exploring the city for a few days, taking in the culture, history, sights and shopping offered by this fascinating city, it's better to stay closer to one of the hubs like Sandton, Rosebank and Midrand, all of which are easily accessible by the rapid Gautrain.
