    Hidden Gem! The property was located in a quiet and secure neighborhood . The guest house is ideally located and close to restaurants, malls and all major roads which makes travelling a breeze. Peter , the owner was an exceptional host . He made sure that his guests are comfortable and taken care of the entire stay. There was water and fresh fruit in the room everyday. The rooms are beautifully and tastefully decorated and the gardens well kept. I would highly definitely recommend this guest house and definitely will be back!

    Great location, exceptional services. Clean facilities & regular room services. Quiet & definitely the place to go if you want a calm, isolated environment for personal privacy or work. Spacious room with perfect lighting & even better rooms offered should the one you have booked not meet your expectations. You want something handled; everyone & anyone on sight knows what to do & how to do it (no delays in query resolution). The property has a no noise tolerance. Host(s) (brilliant services).

    The great price for what you get. Well-equipped cottage with everything you need. Smart tv with YouTube. Really comfortable bed. Friendly and helpful hosts. Great location. Quiet suburb. Central to town and walking distance from supermarket. Lots of parking. Private entrance. 24-hour access by using own remote. Friendly dogs (although behind a gate). Was great to have the TV on when there was loadshedding. Wi-fi was reliable.

    Real nice to have a hotel with own private/secure parking in the city center. It was conveniently close to several shopping malls. The room was sufficent but not very big, especially not if you bring a few big suitcases, we had to place them on the bed to open them. The beds were good and the room was quiet, we slept well ! The restaurant (and staff) was good, meal of the day was a real nice curry ! Nice we could choose for the cheaper continental breakfast only (no warm foods).

    We had the best time in Agterplaas guesthouse. The host did everything to make feel at home : they even upgraded our room for free once we arrived. Besides, they made sure we got everything we needed for our 10 months old baby. The room are very spacious and comfortable, located in a very safe aera in Johannesburg (we could easily go out, have drinks and lunch by foot). And the breakfast, which is included, is excellent. Fresh baked bread, fresh fruits, very good muffins… Thank you for everything !
