All the staff are super friendly, the food is excellent and has a personal touch from the chef's. Rooms are very comfortable and sitting in the garden in front of the wood fire after dinner was so relaxing. The spa treatments are highly recommended. All in all a perfect place to stay. Will be back when we are back in the area. Thank you for a great stay. ##### George Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eryn May 29, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Stayed for one night on a layover for flights at Tambo.

Breakfasts were not very good. ##### Edward ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Dec 4, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Airport-Nähe, dabei ruhig und Afrika-Feeling Das Hotel liegt in einem durch Wachen, Zaun, und Gate gesicherten Wohngebiet (residential area). Im abgesicherten Bereich fühlte ich mich sicher (viel sicherer die umliegende Gegend). Abholung vom Flughafen (kostenlos) und Aufenthalt war sehr angenehm. Wenige Zimmer: d.h. wenige Gäste und in meinem Fall ruhig. Kleiner Nachteil: Alle Zimmer sind ebenerdig (wenn ich richtig gesehen habe) und man kann von außen reinschauen, wenn der Vorhang offen ist. Nicht jedermanns Sache. Einrichtung ist in einem modernen Afrika-Stil. Ein bisschen Ferienstimmung kommt auf. Das Personal war sehr freundlich. Für mich war das Hotel perfekt, weil ich einen Aufenthalt in Johannesburg vor dem Weiterflug hatte und in der Nähe des Flughafens bleiben wollte, aber nicht in das Spieler-"Paradies", wo viele der übrigen flughafennahen Hotels angesiedelt sind (schlechte Erfahrung). Ich würde es wieder buchen, um mich vor der Weiterreise vom Flug zu erholen. Die Hotelküche ist gut aber für südafrikanische Verhältnisse nicht billig (3 Gänge, 2 Gläser Wein: ca 500 R). Eine Küche für so wenig Personen ist aber auch aufwendig und das war dann ok. Ich war froh über das Angebot, daher kein Punktabzug. ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Aug 23, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent stay!!! I love African Rocks Hotel! I trusted the other reviews and they were right. The driver Kelvin who met us and the airport was wonderful, friendly and professional, the cook Christine was so welcoming and the food was excellent; it was like having a private chef! The hotel itself is lovely, serene, clean modern, and the perfect stop after a long transatlantic flight. Highly recommended. ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Colleen P, gold coast, Australia Jun 7, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Africian Rock Stayed the evening before departing S.A. Found Africian Rock Hotel to be in a secure area; owners introduced themselves and welcomed us; all staff were obliging, helpful and friendly; great pickup/ drop off service for airport; Christine, the chef prepared an absolutely delicious 5 course meal. Would recommend. ##### Colleen P ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller May 26, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice boutique hotel with good security Our stay at the hotel for 2 nights was very pleasant. The staff was helpful and offered to shuttle us to a couple of different places. Unfortunately, we were under the impression that the shuttle service was complimentary because there was no mention of a cost associated with the service. It was a surprise to see some very expensive charges for the shuttle services. Other than that, our experiences were all positive. ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Oded, Israel Apr 23, 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Perfect place We visited Johannesburg twice, and to be honest, there is not much to do there. Therefore, in our second visit, we decided, to be far from the center and relatively close to the airport. We chose ARH, which was just perfect - the room was huge and comfortable, the shower was great, the view and the pool area were amazing, and the food was perfect. If I'll come again to Johanesburg I will not think twice on which hotel to choose. ##### Oded ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Las Vegas](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Hotels.d178276.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Cheap Hotels in Rochester](https://www.expedia.ca/Rochester-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d602966-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Heritage Inn Hotel & Convention Centre Saskatoon](https://www.expedia.ca/Saskatoon-Hotels-Heritage-Inn-Hotel-Convention-Centre-Saskatoon.h84277.Hotel-Information) > > [Springhill Suites Buffalo Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels-Springhill-Suites-Buffalo-Airport.h11567601.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Tournament Capital Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Tournament-Capital-Centre-Hotels.0-l6230354-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Protea Hotel by Marriott Cape Town Waterfront Breakwater Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Town-Hotels-Protea-Hotel-By-Marriott-Cape-Town-Waterfront-Breakwater-Lodge.h663635.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Frankfurt (FRA) to Lipjan (PRN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/fra/prn/frankfurt-to-pristina) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Mumbai (BOM)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/bom/calgary-to-mumbai) > > [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to San Francisco (SFO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/sfo/winnipeg-to-san-francisco) > > [Flights from Ottawa](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/178296/flights-from-ottawa) > > [Flights from Liberia (LIR) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/lir/yyz/liberia-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Chek Lap Kok (HKG) to Bangkok (BKK)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/hkg/bkk/hong-kong-to-bangkok) > > [Flights from Kitchener (YKF) to Goffs (YHZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ykf/yhz/kitchener-to-halifax) > > [Air Canada Toronto (YYZ) to London (LHR) flights](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flight-routes/air-canada-from-pearson-intl-to-heathrow/ac/yyz/lhr) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to San José del Cabo (SJD)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/sjd/vancouver-to-san-jose-del-cabo) > > [WestJet Edmonton (YEG) to Phoenix (PHX) flights](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flight-routes/westjet-from-edmonton-intl-to-sky-harbor-intl/ws/yeg/phx) ### Cars > [Car rentals in British Columbia](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-British-Columbia.d11117.Car-Rental-Destinations) > > [Car rentals in Marystown](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Marystown.d602123.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Cruise > [Cruises to Alaska](https://www.expedia.ca/Cruises-to-Alaska.d203.Travel-Guide-Cruise) > > [Cruises from New York](https://www.expedia.ca/Cruises-from-New-York.d178293.Cruise-Departure-Port) ### Activities > [Things to do in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Toronto.d178314.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Penticton](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Penticton.d4135.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Provincetown](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Provincetown.d2909.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Mount Zion](https://www.expedia.ca/Mount-Zion-Jerusalem.d6261653.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Transylvania Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Transylvania.d6057287.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [all inclusive vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations) > > [Playland Amusement Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Playland-Amusement-Park-East-Vancouver.d6089615.Vacation-Attraction)
