Reviews of City Lodge JNB

"This hotel was perfect for a one night stopover.

After picking up our checked luggage it was 10pm by the time we left arrivals. It was then about 5 minutes walk to the hotel along a safe walkway within the airport complex.

The room was airconditioned and well appointed, and the bed very comfortable. Breakfast was buffet style, with lots of choice and an egg station.

Great location, good value with friendly and helpful staff" See all these reviews: 10n in Botswana; 1n in South Africa

"Very happy with the City Lodge. We just needed a place to spend our stop over so this hotel provided us with what we needed. The breakfast was very good with a large selection of options from hot to cold.
On our return stop over we had dinner in the restaurant which was also very good. Our flight was not till the evening so we needed somewhere to spend our waiting hours. The weather was nice so we were able to sit by the pool and relax before our journey home"" See all these reviews: 7n in Botswana; 2n in South Africa

"Couldn't checkin when we arrived, and was told to come back at 2, but another guest said to go back every 20 minutes and we quickly got allocated a room.

Had to change rooms as first one stank of smoke.

Overall room was comfortable and quiet. Food and beverages excellent and very reasonably priced.

Breakfast very good." See all these reviews: 11n in Botswana; 6n in South Africa; 2n in Namibia; 2n in Zambia

"We rate City Lodge as average in comparison to all other accomodation we stayed in during our trip in Southern Africa.

Objective of staying there was indeed merely convenience: stop overnight during transfers from Botswana to Namibia.

The hotel is a standard, very good quality, airport hotel - therefore lacking personality and "soul".

It is very conveniently located, within Jo'burg airport. It offers decent, clean and quiet bedrooms; as well as good standard food with many options (we tested dinner and breakfast), served at very convenient times, from 04.00am until late at night - so you are sure to get food if you arrive late or leave early. Staff is courteous. Only negative point is that we had asked for a wake-up call at 4.00am, to leave at 4.30am, and the hotel prsonnel did not show up - they came to our room when we were ready to depart at 04.20am. So recommendation to put your alarm clock on as a back-up!" See all these reviews: 5n in Namibia; 3n in Botswana; 2n in Zimbabwe; 1n in South Africa
