City Lodge Hotel at OR Tambo International Airport Johannesburg

We arrived and used google to find the hotel; it only offered the City Lodge that was a few km away so we took an Uber there. The staff kindly shifted our booking from the one at the airport and sent us back by shuttle in the morning for our early flight. The room was clean and bathroom where we stayed was huge. AC was a huge plus. Comfortable beds.

We stayed here for one night between a long layover. The hotel was super easy to get to - just follow the signs right from the arrivals hall. Our room was clean and a good size. All the staff were super kind and friendly. The restaurant had decent options for good value. If I ever have a long layover in Jburg again, I will definitely stay here.

We stayed here inbound, as well as outbound on our wonderful vacation in South Africa. What a difference to have a nice place to clean up & rest when you have an 11 hour layover. The staff was very friendly & helpful.

Should be more flexible with airline schedules in regards to check in and check out times.i.e. dont like being slugged late check out fees when I check in at 6 pm and want to check out following day at 3 pm due to flight connections

Hotel is located across the street from the airport. We stayed there for one night before heading out to our safari in Limpopo area. The room was very clean and the staff was very accommodating. We ate at the restaurant which offered simple but decent food. We also walked over to the airport to do some shopping at Woolworth for our trip. I would definitely recommend it.

To take an early flight this is perfect as you can walk to the terminals. Their restaurant is good and better then some of the options in the airport it self, the hotel is just that, a hotel with little unique atmosphere but that is not why you sleep at an airport hotel right...

There were some small things that really can be approved based on the price you pay. Shower head was broken and i had to re screw it on as it sprays on the ceiling then drips on you afterwards. Bottom of shower also not sealed so you flood the bathroom floor with water. The plastic utensils they provided me was broken. Otherwise it was a very comfortable bed and facilities was clean and had a good nights rest but its the small things that matter!

The hotel is very conveniently located for meetings near to the airport. The rooms are comfortable and clean. The staff are friendly and helpful. The restaurant is OK, and offers a limited dinner menu.

The overall stay was good. The room wasn't big, but it was enough for two people with not many luggages. However, the toilet was relatively large. There were all kinds of amenities, the view from the window was also great too. The location was absolutely perfect as the hotel was located near to the JNB airport, which required only ~10mins to walk. One possible disadvantage is that the hotel only has three levels occupying a large area, so each level accomodates many rooms. It took me ~3mins to walk from the lift to my own room, so if your room is located at the end of the ail, it may take you ~7mins. And you cannot see the surrounding environment from a high height. But it in fact is not a big problem. There are two reasons why i gave a lower rating to staff. First of all, the staff wasn't too polite when i checked in. She kind of yelled at me for my passport with a rude tone. What had pissed me off more was the staff in the hotel restaurant. 45mins after we ordered, the food still had not yet arrived. We noticed that the staff who served us was in the resting room, and other staff was chit-chatting. At last, we got our food after an hour, with the staff not admitting that we had waited for an hour that much. This might be understandable, but i don't think these should be the services provided. Anyway, i will recommend to hotel to others, but you may just need to eat outside.

I could've found a cheaper hotel in Johannesburg, but then I'd have needed to pay for a cab out to Oliver Tambo. Excellent to be able to walk to the check-in desk without having to wait for a shuttle or without having to try to forecast traffic jams. Also liked the fact that I could do last minute gift and snack shopping in the airport mall. I didn't use the hotel restaurant (breakfast in the Mugg and Bean with a view in the Transit lounge instead). The one thing the room lacked was a fridge., but the reception desk girls put my stuff in the kitchen fridge.

Great for passengers passing through OR Tambo airport or if you have a long drive home after a long flight. Our third stay there and it is always what we expect.

It’s a bit of a walk from the terminal building but it least it’s still at the airport

Don’t need to walk autside (direct access from airport terminal)

It is an excellent hotel, clean, good food, friendly staff-they even gave me free coffeee sachets as we were there on National Coffee day, I would most definately stay again and recommend other friends and family to stay.

Everything was fine. Staff good & helpful even with the luggage. All room accessories were there. Just rooms needs to be vacuumed at times. It's not nice to take off your shoes & get your feet pricked.

In respect of price, this was our best option at the OR Tambo International Airport. Adding the splendid service by their staff, overall quality and cleanliness of the facilities and the value for money, this hotel deserves a full score.

Before travel, was a little worried about safety and directions as a solo female traveler and new to the area. Upon arrival at the airport, direction (signboard) was easy and the walk to the hotel felt safe and easy within the enclosed walkway (despite arriving at the wee hours of morning). Clean, great staffs, room was basic but sufficient.

Very convenient to OR Tambo airport. Clean, comfortable and quiet.

We stayed in room 3116. Overall a great experience for me and my partner. The room looked run down though. The desk chair was damaged, miner damage to the desk. the food was great, staff was really friendly, helpful. I ordered two hamburgers...I do recommend the food..really nice and tasty.

For some unknown reason I always avoided this hotel but eventually decided to give it a try. I was pleasantly surprised. This was one of the better hotels I ever stayed in. There was a nice atmosphere and the room was clean and comfortable. The only thing I think they could add is complementary water in the rooms..I will definitely stay here again.
