This is a very nice hotel. Our travel itinerary had us flying into the Johannesburg airport late afternoon and flying out the next day, so we booked this because it looked close to the airport. It is actually attached to the airport, above the parking lot, with a fully enclosed walkway from baggage claim to the hotel. (Grab a luggage cart, it is a long walk.) The hotel is surprisingly nice! Large room. Big shower. Queen bed. Good A/C. Nice restaurant. (Had big salad and pizza, things we didn't have on Safari.). Serves breakfast starting at 4:30am for people who have early flights. Would definitely stay here again.

City Lodge not as comfortable as in the past
A bit of a queue to check in, but not too bad of a wait. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Internet wasn't working until after I was asleep. I couldn't call reception at all following the card instructions on how to call and when I went to reception, they said to contact via what app, but not possible with no internet. They said there was an internet problem, but couldn't say when it would be fixed. But the most disappointing is the renovated bathrooms. Bad enough that the baths were removed, but the showers are not fully enclosed so you are always cold in the shower and there used to be so much more shelf space for toiletries, but now bathroom very small and limited space available.

The hotel was a quick overnight stay for me, however i was able to see much of the space and have dinner at the restaurant. They have two options, a la carte or buffet. I was very comfortable during my stay and would visit again.
