"City Lodge OR Tambo review"
It's very conveniently located on the airport premises, although a somewhat long walk through the parking garage, and not very well sign posted. Breakfast was included, with plenty of food choices. Room was clean, wi-fi worked, TV worked, all was fine. It's good value for a convenient airport hotel.
This hotel was an excellent suggestion by Expert Africa/Maruska." See all these reviews: 8n in Namibia; 8n in Botswana; 1n in South Africa
"City Lodge OR Tambo review"
The room was very clean and functional. Although we only stayed one evening we would have been very comfortable remaining longer.
The staff who we interfaced were excellent - welcoming, accommodating, and attentive. The breakfast buffet was sumptuous, with sufficient variety to accommodate most any dietary need." See all these reviews: 9n in Botswana; 2n in Zambia; 1n in South Africa
"Transfer Hotel"
"short stay at airport hotel"
Some 5-10 minutes later, the reservation was miraculously found... after talking to the manager! Its an ok place to spend a night if your in transit and need to spend a night at the airport.
Staff at the breakfast not very helpful." See all these reviews: 8n in Botswana; 2n in South Africa; 2n in Zimbabwe

"City Lodge OR Tambo review"
"Convenient for overnighting at Jo'burg"
It is a big airport and a longish walk but we had clear instructions how to find the hotel. You leave your baggage trolly at a lift which takes you to the reception of the hotel. The rooms, breakfast, etc. were up to the standard to be expected in an international airport hotel.
Makes a transit through Jo'burg airport relatively painless." See all these reviews: 19n in Namibia; 10n in Rwanda; 1n in Kenya; 1n in South Africa
