Denise was very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. A great host.

Stayed in July 2025

Denise was a wonderful host. It was a pleasure to chat with her about this and that and she was so helpful with my daily trips. The house is situated in Mellville in a safe area. It is a lovely house with a small garden. The rooms are decorated beautifully and the bed was very comfortable. I had booked breakfast and was served a nice and fresh breakfast every morning. If I ever come back to Johannesburg I‘ll definitely stay there again.

Actually, we had no complaints.

The B&B was within walking distance of downtown Melville, which featured several nice restaurants and shops. The host offered a fine breakfast, including granola, toast, fresh fruit, juice, coffee and tea. In addition she cooked eggs, bacon, and sausages. The beds had electric blankets, in case the nights were chilly, which were much appreciated.

Greeted warmly and professionally. Helpful recommendations. Delicious, plentiful breakfasts made to order.

The location on its own is a 10/10. Quiet and safe neighbourhood, far from the busy CBD and loud bars.

The only thing that could be better is the location, thinking of the whole city.

Denise's acommodation is really well prepared to receive any one who wants, as the title says, a cozy and warm place to be, specially if it's winter, like it was for me and my wife. The room has everything you need to not leave the room, if you wish - really really well equipped. The bath is really warm, it has a hitter at our disposal, and the bed even has it's own hitter, on both sides. The TV has netflix, the towels are good and fluffly, the sheets, the pillows, the banklets, everything of really good quality. On the outside of your room, you will find also a little table with two chairs and - for the smokers - an ashtray to call yours. As if all of this wasn't enough, you are allowed to use the kitchen and the common area (there is a fireplace in the living room) of the house, in which Denise leaves, on the top floor. Don't worry, though, you will have your privacy. To finalize, about the location: Melville is not that close to the center and Mandela Square, for example, but the house is really well located at Melville, being less than 5 minutes of walking distance from the neighbourhood's most cool restaurants and bars.

It was a lovely stay. My mum called it home away from home. It is just that. Nice and cozy, and homey.

Nothing.

This B&B exceeded my expectations. The host, Denise, is lovely. It is located in a quiet, safe, yet central neighbourhood. There's a beautiful garden. The matrasses are amazing and the rooms very clean. This place is suitable for a short trip, but could also work very well for a longer stay (few weeks, months) as you have your own fridge and could possibly use the kitchen. As a woman travelling alone I felt at safe and welcome here.

Nothing. The room was great!

I would highly recommend staying at this BnB. The host, Denise, is a very helpful and welcoming lady. The rooms are clean, quiet, in a central and safe neighbourhood of joburg. The matrasses are very nice - I had a great rest! The bnb has a wonderful garden and generally good vibes, with many returning customers. It is great value for money and next time I would definitely return.

The room is quiet and the cleanliness is impeccable. In the morning, Denise makes breakfast with great care and gives you all the information you need to know about Johannesburg. I loved the hotel.

We had a warm welcome and could safely park our car. Breakfast was delicious and the host gave us some good advice & tips for Johannesburg. It was a great start to our journey through South-Africa.

Lovely breakfast. Peaceful location.

The stairs was the only challenge as our one suitcase was quite heavy.

Friendly staff, breakfast was excellent. Bed comfortable. Room size was just right. We were lucky as we had a lovely balcony to sit on. There is a garage to park your car and a cute resident cat. The suburb is quite central and don't forget the cat charity shop close by.

Absolutely nothing honestly.

I liked how the property was so big, spacious, and had a lot of green spaces. I loved the dining room table and how it reminded me of a castle in a Disney movie. The overall setup of the property was top notch.

Not much, maybe the furnishings are a little dated but this makes the place nice and homely.

Excellent quiet location, spacious room, clean and very kind and friendly host.

The property is a home and Denise is a wonderful host. She offers a lovely, nutritional breakfast and all essential facilities for a super comfortable stay. The location was also great as I felt safe and I was surrounded by good restaurants and a big mall. It was perfect for me.
