REPORT: Emerald Guest House

[jeff]

Hello, has anyone stayed at the Emerald Guest House in Johannesburg, it is not far from the airport?

Jeff, I have only had clients stay there once, they were happy with the service they got there, it's about a 10 minute drive from the airport. They 3 star rated.

I looked at staying in this place once. I chose not to.
The ratings are across the map.

If you're willing to stay at a B&B away from the airport, you can't go wrong with Africa Sky. I just returned from there, and cannot say enough good things about the cleanliness of the grounds and rooms, the friendly staff, and the fantastic food. A+++ all the way.

Stayed at the African Sky guest house recently. Felt like we were well taken care of. Rooms were clean as well as nice. Help was friendly. Food was excellent. Had the beef fillet and it was quite tender. Bruce

Looking over the reviews, most were good. Sounds good enough for me, I like trying something new so I going to give them a try.

Exactly, if you don't mind the adventure you should be fine.

I know some of the reviews can be from pretty picky people. I was just not prepared to give it a go last time.

When you are in the mood for adventure it may work just fine.

Tell us how it goes. Maybe they will be the next Afton or African Sky.

Jeff,

Just curious as to what the rates are?

I'm staying at city lodge again tomorrow as the rates seem reasonable to me and the convenience os great, for me.

The rates vary by what kind of room and time of year, although they were very low any time. They have a web site that explains rates and pickup times.
