    The friendly staff made my stay so comfortable 😊 I was visiting a friend at Zazen hospital, so it was convenient and right there. Close to shops as well 😀

    We didn't dislike it, but the parking is a little tight in the back, however, there was enough parking for guests and deliveries. They could use a couple more pool loungers that can be moved around, but there was enough seating at the pool.

    It's a lovely, quiet, secure location, beautiful, well kept rooms, and lush beautiful gardens, excellent staff, delicious meals. Lovely breakfast area, with a delicious full breakfast. The staff were very professional and polite. They provided an excellent daily room cleaning service, and quickly provided any extra items needed. My brother has stayed there many times and recommended we stay there as well - we weren't disappointed!

    No complaints.

    We have stayed at Sunninghill Guest Lodges several times and are never disappointed. Our room was clean and comfortable and well appointed. We enjoyed an excellent breakfast under a tree next to the swimming pool. The gardens are beautifully maintained with abundant bird life and the staff are friendly. There is always sufficient parking.

    Only thing was that remote controls for TV, netflix and aircon take a bit of time to get used to. Need to press buttons fairly hard. But front desk staff can help

    The facilities were great. Staff are accommodating and very friendly and always a smile. Super clean rooms an surrounds. Quiet.

    Nothing ! As mentioned, I stay over once a month for a few days and I am so incredibly happy when I am planning my next trip.

    I travel every month for 3 - 4 days a month and have stayed at Sunninghill for I'm sure over a year now. It is fantastic as I feel at home when I come back with beautiful accommodation, expectational staff and the locality is perfect. I feel like I'm staying in the Oyster Box which I have stayed in many times. I look forward to my monthly trips as know I won't have problems with electricity, water or a beautiful clean room and everything that I do need is always not only met but exceeded.

    There was one specific instance when the young guy at the front office brought us pool towels as we had brought the towels in the bathrooms and the matter of fact tone he took in telling us we should know not use the bathroom towels for the pool I did not appreciate.

    Front office assistance, specifically oldish guy with moustache our rooms, the pool, convenience of location and the general chilled vibe about the place. It has been my preferred place to stay when visiting Joburg.
