Reviews of City Lodge JNB

"We stayed at City Lodge specifically because we believed we could store a suitcase, during our safari, with them. We could not and according to them this was never done due to insurance reasons. They provided us with an alternative that also did not work for a two week period.

On positive side, the room was clean, people were generally helpful and the breakfast was very good." See all these reviews: 10n in Namibia; 3n in Botswana; 1n in South Africa

"The City Lodge was the perfect landing spot after our very long international flight. It is physically connected to the airport through a series of well-marked hallways (that also take local travelers to parking and car rentals.)" See all these reviews: 7n in Botswana; 1n in South Africa

"Sadly our flight was delayed (in Auckland) and the knock on effect meant we did not stay here.

It looked a great option for a quick stop in Windhoek while we decompressed and hoped for our trip though." See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia; 1n in South Africa

"It was OK for one night, and definitely convenient, but needs upgrading.

It fulfilled the purpose." See all these reviews: 9n in Namibia; 6n in Botswana; 3n in Zimbabwe; 1n in South Africa

"Lovely, comfortable, clean, quiet, and friendly. Wonderful meal in the lobby restaurant. A wonderful rest after a long flight. The staff were delightful, the lobby airy, the garden courtyard relaxing.

We did have a little trouble finding our room -- the signs in the halls are a bit vague. But the only serious problem is finding the lodge. Despite the very careful instructions EA included in our travel document, JNB is such a complex, extended airport with multiple routes and dead ends that we kept getting lost.

Happily, a nice policeman going off duty helped guide us all the way to their elevator -- a long mysterious trail that I wouldn't have found following directions or signage. The fact that EA gave us GPS coordinates for the hotel should have been a clue.

Perhaps a Google Maps location link (or something similar) would help." See all these reviews: 13n in Botswana; 2n in Namibia; 1n in South Africa

"Our flight schedule necessitated an overnight stay in Johannesburg and the City Lodge was recommended by Maruska.
It was convenient, reasonable, and comfortable. The breakfast which came with the room was satisfying and complete." See all these reviews: 8n in Zambia; 4n in Zimbabwe; 1n in South Africa

"Everything you'd expect from an airport hotel. Early and late checkout and breakfast from 4am.

Quite a hike from international arrivals and not easy to find." See all these reviews: 15n in Namibia; 7n in Zambia; 5n in Rwanda; 1n in South Africa
