Johannesburg Hotels with Hot Tub

This B&B is run by a kind-hearted Chinese couple. It’s easy to communicate and the environment is very good. It’s very safe to go out in this area during the day. Taxi service is very fast. It is recommended to buy a phone card when you come to the airport here, or ask the landlord to help you buy it because it is available on Taobao in China. The ones I bought are basically useless. There is a supermarket nearby where you can walk to buy ingredients and cook in the kitchen. It is very suitable for Chinese people to stay in a hotel. 

The rooms were spacious. The staff was super friendly and the food was amazing and I enjoyed the buffet breakfast as there was a variety to pick from. The pap and vleis was my most favourite meal and Innocent the barman made our visit to the bar a memorable one.

It was very pleasant. The service was nice and friendly staff. Though the location is a bit dogdy if you don't know the place.

Booked at short notice due to no water supply in my home neighborhood. The Houghton hotel staff were very friendly and accommodating, helping me to extend my stay when water supply issues persisted at home and hotel was near capacity. I always had a great experience when coming here with my employer for conferences and strategy sessions, and the hotel maintains its high standards. Thank you yo the staff for making me as comfortable as possible in my makeshift temporary home!

The hotel allows a classy dive into Johannesburg’s vibe. The area worth a city trip - with the train station within a 8 minutes taxi drive, the Africa Museum and the Market Theater just next door, still counting with comfort and quietness. The room was very descent and clean. The stay and breakfast were rather plastic free!

I checked in yesterday to davinci my first experience at this luxury hotel. Check in was seamless and the 2 bed apartment is nothing short of amazing. However the luxe feel has somewhat been tarnished by a myriad of minor issues: 1. Breakfast is super basic there are options for Halal friendly and vegetarian but the buffet has barely anything on it. The ladies at stations making hot means were really overwhelmed and output was very poor. 2. The air conditioner was switched off when I got to my room and didn’t think anything of it but at 30 degrees I realised something was wrong and I had to endure a sniffly maintenance guy while he downloaded his app to figure out what the error message meant nevertheless they got it working. Usually the AC is on when you check in and you wouldn’t be able to then smell the plumbing smells that keep arising throughout the day and are most pungent in the morning. 3. I decided to put on the television for the first time in 2 days and lo and behold none of the three television in the apartment have any service, I wait my fate while I wait for maintenance to once again assist. 4. Nice kitchenette but not cloth in sight 5. Washing machine but nowhere to hang any wet clothes 6. Sliding door in second bathroom that doesn’t slide 7. Two pin plugs terribly positioned at the bottom of the side of the beds which wouldn’t have bothered me but since we are now in the mix of everything may as well mention it 8. Getting off on the 3rd floor straight into a barrage of cellphone merchants not quite the welcome to Sandton city i expected but not the hotels fault The staff are obliging and willing to help but a lot of small annoying things for a really beautifully located hotel with lots of potential. Overall let’s be honest for the price I expected better. I checked in yesterday and I am checking out on Friday 27/12 I hope it gets better.

This is my second time returning to the hotel after my first trip. They remembered my name as I arrived which shows great attention to detail with customer care. I upgraded to the suite for this particular visit and honestly it was a great decision. Look forward to visiting them again when I go back to South Africa in a year’s time.

We really appreciated the boutique and quirky ambience of the hotel. Clearly the hotel has grown organically and the layout is a little complex which is interesting to uncover. Each space is full of character and very comfortable. Staff are charming and friendly. Breakfast was excellent. We stayed in the Pool Villa one night which we loved, due to a leak we were moved to the Madiba Suite for our second night which has a huge private deck. Both suites were lovely, comfortable and well designed. Spa treatments were very good. We would happily stay again and recommend.
