Guest Reviews
1 I enjoyed the time I spent at this hotel. Nice hotel, comfortable bed, unfortunately there is no air conditioner, so you feel
hot at night when it’s summer but it’s just a detail, you will enjoy your breakfast. Nice service...
2 Came here on a Saturday for drinks with a friend and to watch the Kaizer Chiefs vs Pirates game. The staff was very
friendly. And their wine selection was superb. Love the place...
3 The property is in the middle of the city center. It’s a walking distance to everything, banks ,restaurants ,shopping and
lots of beauty shops. The front seat was professional and helpful, breakfast was very good and the wait staffs cater to all
your needs! Free parking and internet too. Will be back again.
4 Travelling on business to Johannesburg , decided to settle at a hotel close to the cbd. The atmosphere was very good
reception staff friendly and always ready to help. The rooms were not bad at very good value for money. Beds big and
comfy.
5 I have known the Devonshire hotel in Johannesburg for quite some time, knowing of it’s rich history back
in the day. It’s a beautiful old hotel that is quaint and simplistic. The Bar upstairs with the baby grand
piano makes for a great ambiance.Book Now
