Sandown Guest House

Breakfast is filling!

The property is very clean and the stuff is friendly. I really enjoyed my stay and I would definitely book again.❤️

The WiFi was a bit slow

Staff - Ms Ruu was superb - attentive and friendly. Good location

Single bed mattress a bit soft for our liking.

Nice rooms & beds

The staff was very helpful and friendly. The property is in a quiet cul-de-sac.

Location is great! 5/10mins away from main hub. Staff is super friendly and accommodating. If you’re also looking for a quiet place this is great! Garden is beautiful and peaceful to sit and read.

The pictures of the room didn’t match the pictures on the site so it was a bit of a let down. The pool was not cleaned so no swimming - but guessing that’s because it’s winter. Also if you have a lot of luggage be mindful some rooms are 2 flights of stairs up.

The staff were amazing , the place is beautiful. The garden is so tranquil and calm

Nothing everything was amazing

Tudo é excelente

Staff were amazing

Love that everything is communicated to me i don't have to struggle. I knew when morning breakfast was and they also try to meet your need about time. So i could eat my morning breakfast without haste and arrive on time at my destination.

There was nothing that i disliked

The guest house was very clean and modern and quite equipped with everything we needed.

Everything was really great. It would be nice if the televisions in the rooms at least the rooms we were in were smart TVs.

The Staff was very welcoming and great communication. The breakfast was fantastic and if you have not included it in your booking, please do so, as you will be missing out! The location was ideal for all my meetings as this was at the center of my north to south travels. I would recommend staying here.

Night activities were too far for a lone traveller, but I did catch up on all my emails. :)

A spacious guesthouse in close proximity to Sandton CBD, the highway, and all amenities. It is set in a peaceful neighborhood, close to the terminus of a cul-de-sac. The house is attached to a tranquil garden with a pool. Rugare and Phindile, who manage the house, are incredibly helpful and cook a delicious breakfast. They really go out of their way to make one feel comfortable. You are treated like family. I would visit again, especially for the treatment from the lovely ladies.

The home shows age-related wear and tear, which could benefit from some TLC. The faucet in the bathroom and the glass vanity shelf inside the shower need fixation. The shower floor and extractor fan in the toilet could do with a deep clean. The towels may need to be replaced soon. Due to the size and layout of the house, sound from the common areas travels freely, which can be disruptive even from inside a closed room. The room is dimly lit, which is exacerbated by the dark wood furniture. It is unclear if this is part of the aesthetic or if it requires maintenance.

Very nice house close to the center. Incredibly friendly staff!! Rooms, impeccable. Breakfast amazing cooked with love. Beautiful garden, room with balcony. Beds, very nice. Do not miss this place, wonderful!

Loved everything!

Friendly staff and comfort.

Locatie en rustig

Niets

Son emplacement dans un quartier secure et calme en bout de rue, très facile à trouver. Communication aisée avec personnel à l’écoute. Belle demeure et jolie chambre spacieuse.

Las habitaciones cómodas. El trato del personal

La habitación fuera del edificio y las escaleras

Rugare und ihre Kollegin waren tolle Gastgeberinnen. Die Zimmer sind groß und haben alles, was man braucht. Sichere und ruhige Gegend.

Mein Zimmer hatte eine Glastür, die nur durch einen Vorhang verdeckt werden konnte. Allerdings war der Vorhang aussen und nicht im Zimmer. Das fand ich sehr unangenehm.

O café da manhã é muito bom, reservei 3 quartos no hotel, e apenas um quarto foi de fato no hotel que reservei, esse quarto era muito bom, nada a reclamar.

Os outros dois quartos que reservei nos colocaram em outra acomodação que ficava a uns 8 minutos caminhando, essa acomodação era inferior, os quartos não tinham ar condicionado, fora que estávamos com malas e não estávamos de carro. Isso sim foi surreal, as funcionárias não queriam nem mostrar aonde era essa outra acomodação, tive que pedir para o gerente que o mínimo que tinham que fazer era pedirem um Uber para transportar meus outros amigos com as malas para a outra acomodação.

Location in Sandton was perfect. Very accessible and close to amenities. Staff were attentive & excellent. It had everything. Cappuccino machine was a lovely extra.

Nothing.

Dispiace dover dare una valutazione bassa ma siamo arrivati in un momento in cui vi era un blackout della luce a livello della città che, di fatto, non ci ha permesso di utilizzare la camera dato che anche l'acqua si serviva dell'impianto. Siamo stati costretti a dirigerci altrove e non siamo stati rimborsati

sounded like the pool pump on and off every 5 minutes. could not sleep well because of this.

The staff, Phindile and Rui were super exceptional. I wouldn't mind coming back.

The guest house is in a safe area and it offers parking inside the yard which is great. The bed is ok and the host is very friendly. The WiFi works great.

The room we were given was extremely noisy given that it’s right next to the kitchen, so if someone decides to cook at 6am,which happened during our first day, you will wake up. Also the door bell is extremely loud. Everything seems to be a bit outdated, but if you are not planning to spend a lot of time inside, it shouldn’t be an issue.

Clean spacious HOST PHINDI WAS A GEM

Guests with dogs barking

Breakfast was great! My room was upgraded, which was a plus for me.

The basin bathroom tap needs to be fixed. This was also an area of concern from one of the guests that visited a while ago. Not sure if the owner is aware of this.

Rooms are so spacious

Staff were great

Cant think of anything

Great location-feel like home.

I had a pet and would prefer a ground unit -please can you assure rooms on internet to be booked for this.

Lovely Place

Staff were a little unhelpful

Staff was friendly and the location was perfect for me.

It was just little things where it fell short. The TV wasn't working, I told the staff member, and she told me to restart it. I said I had, and she just reiterated that I need to restart it, then went to bed. I didn't want to bug her, because it was already just after 21h00, I think. The coffee wasn't full, so I used the last of it on the first morning, and it wasn't refilled. Luckily, I had a feeling that would be the case, and I bought my own coffee for my last morning there. No shower cap, no hairdryer. Also, I didn't realise I had to arrange with staff to leave early on my last day. I felt really bad that they then had to wake up to let me out, as someone has to physically open and close the gate, and there is no security box or anything, so you can let yourself out and leave the keys. I don't really understand how it has such a good rating. It wasn't terrible, but it definitely fell short of expectations based on the good reviews.

The location is central

I asked for and was sold a King size bed (not x2 beds). I didn’t know there were places which still had these, how uncomfortable and how tacky. I was also told my room would be overlooking a terrace. Mine was facing the parking bay.

The place is very beautiful and quite.

Nothing

Location is great.

Facilities need upgrading - I could not get the old aircon to work. The overall building needs a facelift. The housekeeper told me I was meant to inform them about dietary requirements - however I was unaware of that prior to my stay. When I said I was lactose intolerant, they said that they already did the shopping for the time and couldn’t accommodate me. One of the milk pods in the room had gone off as well. The tea container had a mix of normal black tea and rooibos loose tea bags so they flavours mixed. The coffee container in the room was clearly not fresh because it was dried out solid. The kettle had ants in it.

Friendly and accommodating staff. The room and the house was beautiful

Lovely guest house. Nice breakfast & friendly staff. Room was big with a balcony overlooking the well kept garden. Easy to access amenities in Sandford via Uber.

Nothing

Amazing Guest House. Very nice, neat and clean.

No fridge & microwave in the room😞

Location, comfort and great service

The house was amazing and accommodated my friends and just as expected.The staff was great and very helpful.

Nothing at all

It was very clean. The beds were comfortable

Could not find the room light switch. Not critical though

Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was pleasant. Location was good. Breakfast was delicious. Had a good choice in the honesty bar.

I enjoyed the beautiful garden and pool. The guest house is situated in a quiet neighborhood. Bedrooms are spacious and with their fast wifi, makes a great space to get work done.

Beautiful views.

There were little bugs that were in the room but not enough for me to worry. Hot water is off from evening till morning so you cannot take a shower after 6:00 or 7:00pm

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay this week at Sandown Guesthouse. The property exceeded our expectations, and the ladies working there took great care of us. The guesthouse is also in a great location only a few minutes from Nelson Mandela Square. Would highly recommend!

The room had everything we needed, the shower was good and the bed was comfortable, the breakfast was excellent, the ladies that worked there were friendly and very accommodating. We would definitely stay there again, I highly recommend Sandown Guest House

Everything , the location, safety, the rooms were excellent bed comfortable, breakfast was nice

Nothing, everything was excellent

The aesthetic and outside was beautiful We liked that our pet was allowed to be there with us🥰

Nothing

The property was clean and offered more like bedside lights on waiting for you in the evenings, plunger coffee in the rooms, and really kid friendly and helpful staff.

Location, kindness, cleanliness, attention to details

The guest house makes you feel home.

There was nothing to complain about.

Location

The bed was old and making noise all night when you turn. Also the breakfast was not Ayoba, it was just Okey. They should consider buying a new bed in the outside room.

Property was as explained and very neat

The place is in a safe and quiet area. Cleaning is done regularly and the front lady made my visit pleasurable.

Pet friendly separate garden

No decaff coffee 🥺😞

The rooms were beautiful

The towels outside had pet fur on them

We've stayed at this property several times. It's in a great, safe location close to many great shops and restaurants. The neighborhood is quiet. The staff are very friendly and go out of their way to make us feel at home. And, most importantly, it's pet friendly!

I know this sounds like a line, but I can't think of anything. There's a reason we keep returning to this property - because it meets our needs so perfectly!

Beautiful, comfortable, spacious room with a lovely view of the garden and swimming pool. Clean and spacious bathroom. Lovely outside area to sit and relax in. Delicious vegan breakfast (as per my request), cooked by the friendly and welcoming staff member, Rugare. The host was also extremely helpful with advice and directions when I got lost on the way to the property from the airport!

Nothing - I was happy with everything.

Value for money. Staff were friendly, the accommodation was great and it was super that we could take our pet with. Breakfast was good too.

Just a few things needed fixing in the room.

Beautiful grounds and garden. The balcony was lovely and I really enjoyed sitting out there and hearing the birds in the morning. Also thanks to Rugare for being a great host.

The air conditioner was making a bit of a strange noise.
