Best hotels in Johannesburg

Nestled in the leafy, jacaranda-lined neighbourhood of Houghton in Johannesburg, The Residence Hotel is true delight to behold. Each and every piece was personally chosen by the owners, from richly-patterned rugs to chandeliers and gilded portraits. Outside, the gardens are filled with greenery, creating a tranquil retreat from bustling Joburg – especially if you're in a suite with a hot tub. If you do choose to venture out, there are plenty of pursuits to enjoy nearby and the hotel team simply cannot be faulted in their service and recommendations.
