Very convenient to get to from the airport. Check-in was fast and professional, even at 5am! Our porter was sociable and engaging (again - 5am) and helped us figure out our air conditioner. This is the perfect spot for a layover before an ongoing flight. This is my 3rd stay and it won’t be my last.

Not a good nights sleep

Al was reasonably acceptable, except there was frequent loud banging, metallic sound day and worse throughout the night. Thought I could sleep through it, but was awakened frequently. Room 4115. I have previously stayed in the hotel in a room higher up and had no issues.

One night stay at City Lodge Hotel

This hotel has a walkway from Johannesberg airport. One does not need a shuttle. Turn left when you come out of the airport walk way. You can walk there on your own or there are plenty of airport porters that will be glad to walk you to the elevator to go up to the hotel check in desk. Yes they expect to be tipped. It was easy to check in and out at the desk. Rooms were comfy and the food at their restaurant was like a buffet and it was very tasty.
