Reviews of Saffron Guest House

Jane
The spacious cottages at Saffron Guest House were beautifully decorated and felt cozy. I loved how the bedroom was separated from the living room by a glass sliding door, giving it a bright and airy feel. As someone who loves being in touch with nature, this set-up made me feel closer to the outdoors.
Personally, I found that the glass sliding door separating the bedroom from the living room let in a bit too much light in the morning, which disturbed my sleep. However, I can see how others might enjoy the natural light streaming in.

We had an amazing stay here! The hotel is located in a great vibey area with awesome restaurants around. It's in a perfect area that feels safe and quiet. The staff, including the very able and pleasant manager, provided excellent service car hire, dry cleaning, housekeeping. The room was spacious and had all the amenities we needed, including ironing facilities, heating, air conditioning, and tea and coffee facilities. We also enjoyed the sitting area and terrace. The hotel had great facilities like a garden area and entertainment. We were impressed with the free toiletries and the electric blankets on the comfortable beds. The television and am/fm alarm clock were nice touches. this place offers a luxurious and comfortable stay with great services and amenities.
The staff didn't show great hospitality. Despite this, we would highly recommend this venue to families.

Incredibly beautiful hotel, the staff were all very, very nice and absolutely kind and the location was perfect away from most attractions. The breakfast was good and excellent at cream de la cream, with lots of food. Location: the property was not far from great restaurants and shops and coffee shops around the corner. It was next to Bambanani, where you can have lunch.

Excellent value for money. The comfortable stay at Saffron Guest House was worth every penny. The breakfast was absolutely delicious. We also had the pleasure of being guided around the city by the wonderful Matthew, who was not only a great tour guide but also a genuinely nice person. The location of the guest house was ideal, with plenty of bars and restaurants within walking distance. I highly recommend this hotel for its affordability and quality.

The hotel is situated right in the heart of Melville, on the vibrant 7th Street. This location offers guests a wide variety of awesome restaurants to choose from, ensuring a culinary adventure right on their doorstep. Additionally, the rooms are equipped with comfortable self-serving kitchens, making it convenient for guests to prepare their own meals. The breakfast at the cream de la cream cafe down the street is a delightful treat, starting the day with a delicious and satisfying meal.
The ventilation in the rooms could be improved.

I recently stayed at Saffron Guest House for a few days while in Johannesburg. The location was excellent, with everything we needed close by. The room was spacious, modern, and impeccably clean, with a beautiful interior. The bathroom was neat and tidy, and I particularly loved the double shower. The staff, especially Emiley at the reception, were extremely friendly and caring, making our stay pleasant and safe. I would highly recommend this hotel to my friends and colleagues as it offers great value for money.
Couldn't recommend this hotel more.

Great Room, Convenient Location, Attentive Staff
The guest house had a great room with all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. The location was also very convenient, with shops and restaurants nearby. However, the highlight of the stay was the attentive staff who went out of their way to make us feel welcomed and comfortable throughout our city break.
Although the guest house was situated in a convenient location, the surroundings were quite noisy, which made it difficult to get good rest at times. the breakfast options were a bit limited and could have been better.

Walking distance to shops, delicious breakfast across the street, and friendly staff made my stay enjoyable and convenient. The hotel's decor was tasteful and comfortable, just like in the pictures on their website.
Couldn't find any faults at all.
