the hotel Amenities are.good but there is no tooth paste...so we have to buy it outside...the foods are good however I only eat some kinds of breads and fruits with.omellet...because I am worry if there are pog on the sausage and others...
Pleasantly surprised. Very convenient for a next day flight, and a good restaurant and buffet. I saw comments about not having water in the rooms, but there were water stations everywhere, so just a smart way to minimize waste (or costs, duh). It was well signposted all the way from the arrivals hall, and you don’t need to leave the airport at all.

Well, it was adequate, the location is convenient to some extend.
Unfortunately, the facilities are aged, and there are some things that ”time”, simply erased, splendor, elegance, and stylish, perhaps fifteen to twenty years ago.
However, this is 2025, and the competition is fierce, at the risk of exaggerating, I simply can not believe that this hotel is worth the price.
The cost to value ratio, is simply not acceptable.
I'm sure that this was the ”place to be”, many years ago, but unfortunately, it's not the case now.
Perhaps, if the facilities could be renovated, it could return to it's initial state, whitout, it's simply just way past it's sellby date.
On a more positive note, the service receiving from all the staff, was excellent, and on standard.
Breakfast, was on international standard, and excellent, to say the least.
And as mentioned, the location is prime, and the complementary shuttle, is an excellent ”value added” service.
This hotel, remains a landmark in S.A. it's my sincere hope, that they would renovate the facilities and conduct routine maintenance.
The hotel was good. My room was clean, which is always important, and the location was a big plus. So many places to eat and shop just steps away. pic from internet
For the price of the hotel, we cannot demand too much.
It's a good balance for price/value ratio.
We had some problems at check in, but the duty manager solved the issue in a very good and patient manner.
Thank you.
I enjoyed the whole experience, the hotel is located in a quiet and safe area so i felt safe the whole time. loved the facilities as for the food was always eating out at nearby restaurants. I will definitely visit again because I enjoyed and had a wonderful time at the hotel.
What a pleasant surprise. Inwas picked up from the airport by someone who offers the service for the hotel, he also dropped me off at the airport again, the next morning. Check-in was quick and hassle free and someone also assisted me with my luggage. The room isnspacious and clean, although a bit dated, but the bednis comfortable, the bathroom big and spacious. A separate lounge and well fitted kitchen, I can see myself settling in easy for extended stays too. And for the price... Unbeatable and a definite thumbs up from me!
I thought the place was nice, but to be honest the blankets on the bed and in the cupboard annoyed me with static electricity. The shower water came out way too fast. But everything else was great and the people are very nice.
The team at this hotel genuinely cares about their guests. From the warm welcome to the helpful advice, they go above and beyond to ensure a memorable stay.”

I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the exceptional service we received at this hotel. My elderly mother traveled all the way from China to Johannesburg and then to Windhoek, and the hotel staff truly went above and beyond to ensure her comfort and safety. They arranged a seamless pickup upon her arrival and a timely drop-off the following day, which made her feel incredibly supported throughout her journey. She raved about the excellent service, and I was impressed by the cleanliness and comfort of the rooms. The breakfast was delightful, offering a great start to the day. Overall, we had a fantastic experience, and I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a warm and accommodating place to stay!

GGuest UserFriends booked five rooms together, but one trash can was not emptied. The exterior windows of the two stores were being repaired from 2 to 5 p.m., and workers kept kicking and kicking the windows, making clinking sounds. I complained to the front desk manager, but there was no formal reply. In fact, repairs to individual rooms can be completely avoided. After traveling continuously for several days, it is impossible to take a high-quality nap.
SSlindelo Joseph MlangeniHere is a draft hotel review for Road Lodge Carnival City Hotel based on the details you provided:
Road Lodge Carnival City Hotel Review
Location: Conveniently located near Carnival City entertainment complex in Johannesburg, South Africa.
Room: The rooms at Road Lodge Carnival City are on the smaller side, but well-laid out to accommodate a family of 3 comfortably. Despite the compact space, everything you need is right at hand. The beds were clean and comfortable.
Cleanliness: This property gets a 5-star rating for cleanliness. The hotel staff clearly takes pride in keeping all public areas and rooms spotlessly clean. Our room was thoroughly cleaned each day with fresh towels provided.
Amenities: In-room amenities were basic but sufficient. Free wifi access allowed us to stay connected. The daily refreshment of ice from the vending machine in the hallway was a nice touch.
Breakfast: While we did not partake in any meals here, breakfast is buffet and by the standard of most hotels, was ample and well-prepared.
Service: Front desk and housekeeping staff were polite, helpful and attentive to any needs during our stay. Check-in and check-out were smooth and efficient.
Value: For the affordable room rate at Road Lodge Carnival City, we felt it offered excellent value. The proximity to entertainment and clean, comfortable accommodations made it a hassle-free base despite the modest size.
Overall: While the rooms are on the small side, this hotel gets high marks for cleanliness, location and service. It provides clean, comfortable lodging for an affordable rate that is perfect for a family trip to Carnival City. I would definitely stay here again.
AAnonymous UserIt's a very fancy hotel. The staff are super friendly and helpful. It's super clean. The room is spacious and has an air-conditioner. It's got food and drink available even late in the night via room service.
GGuest UserEverything was Good. Pick up from the airport in a free shuttle every 30 minutes. Very helpful and friendly staff. Room small but neat, Good for just 1 night. For longer I would have choosen a larger room with a fridge. Nice facilities on the premises for eating out and shopping. Interesting exhibition on the history of democracy in SA.
CCarter07Located along Katherine St, really beautiful with delicious breakfast and dinner. The rooms are exceptionally clean, although a little bit small( we had so many bags). Mimi from the reception was really helpful and kind. Her services was top notch. Would definitely recommend this
LLisinkaMy experience wasn’t the best.
First, I’ve booked a queen size room. I checked in I went to the room and someone else was staying in that exact same room I got a new card for a new room that key card didn’t work. I went back to reception they said there’s a problem and maintenance is trying to fix it. They said there’s no rooms available. I can only get twin beds so I told him I paid for a queen size room. They need to make a plan.. eventually after while they came back to me gave me a room card went to the room and they literally just pushed the two beds together took out bedside table and we had to sleep like that. there was no kettle to make coffee and the room was smelly.
RRyun KiatI recently stayed for a couple of nights, and overall, it was an average experience. The check-in process was smooth, and the staff was friendly, which I appreciated. However, the room itself could have been a bit more updated. While it was clean, the furnishings seemed a little worn, and the bathroom, although functional, had some minor issues like a leaky faucet.
The bed was comfortable enough, but I did find it a bit harder than I prefer. The hotel amenities were standard—there was a gym and a small pool, though I didn't have time to use either. The Wi-Fi worked fine, and I didn't encounter any issues with the air conditioning or heating during my stay.
One thing that stood out was the location. It was pretty convenient for my needs, close to a few restaurants and shops, though not overly special. I was hoping for a bit more from the hotel's restaurant, as the menu was somewhat limited and the food was just okay.
In short, it wasn’t a bad stay, but it didn’t blow me away either. If you’re just looking for a place to sleep without expecting anything extraordinary, this hotel will do the job.
GGuest UserIt's giving more 3 than 4 stars? Customer service poor.
Holiday Inn was full so this was a close alternative.
Had amenities but their outlets were in the kitchen far from the bed? Not very business traveller or relaxing traveller friendly.
I booked a queen studio which had a kitchenette which was great for warming food etc. Decor a bit tired so could do with some love. But apart from a very dirty bottle left on the balcony it was clean.
Location is excellent for Rosebank Mall even if you have to play chicken to cross the road 😆
Customer service was severely lacking. I thought Radisson Red staff were slow but at least they were always there. You can't call frontdesk . It's all QR codes and WhatsApp. Late check out would be the cost of another night R1980. Staff had a, I dunno attitude and werent very helpful. 1 security guard and 1 young lady in the lounge are the only exceptions. Outlets in the lounge and office were local only and I had to really ask to get where I could buy adapters / converters.
Next time I'll go elsewhere. They're not customer focused enough for me.
