    Really quaint hotel with a lovely restaurant. Good close walking distance (daytime only) to Rosebank shopping centre which had some great restaurants. Very secure hotel & nice pool area to relax by.

    We loved this little boutique hotel - it way exceeded our expectations. Fantastic value - situated in what seems to be a fairly upmarket and safe (during the day) area - we walked to the large shopping mall nearby. Gardens and pool area were well maintained and very relaxing. Staff were lovely and very helpful (especially the security guard I'm sorry I don't know his name ! ). Breakfast was a simple buffet of fruit, yoghurt, cereal, some pasties & muffins, cheese etc then hot food cooked to order. We ate at the restaurant both nights and enjoyed all our meals there. Highly recommend this hotel.

    It would be a thoughtful touch to offer complimentary water throughout guests’ stay—it adds comfort and reflects genuine hospitality.

    This is our go to place for whenever we visit JHB. Perfect location, comfortable rooms and wonderful staff.

    I am so fussy there is always something I don’t like but for the first time in years of travelling there is nothing I didn’t like about this property!

    This is probably the most outstanding Boutique property I have stayed at anywhere in the world! It is super clean. The staff are amazing. The food and breakfast are 10 star and it’s in a great walkable safer neighbourhood. I’m in Africa for two weeks and to be honest I would’ve been happy to spend my whole time tucked away in this oasis.

    Great restaurant for dinner and breakfast; at breakfast we had green shakshuka and delicious hummus toastie -- way better than your average eggs & bacon. We arrived later in the evening and the gate attendant greeted our uber with our name -- he was expecting us! The staff were very accommodating of our schedule.

    I've used Clico several times and like almost everything about it. There are a few minor points I've mentioned over the years that have not been addressed but not enough to NOT come back. Location, security, staff, grounds, restaurant are amazing. Room 1 & Room ?? (ground floor on right) need attention: Safes need to be attached to the wall for tru security. The latter room was very damp and it's a bit odd not having a bathroom door. Staff are well trained and charming. Security for parking is good. Food outstanding. Pool wasn't crystal clear or scooped but it was the rainy season.

    Noisy area, very close to a busy road. Functions downstairs can be heard from the rooms. There was a loud one whilst we were there one afternoon.

    Location is perfect for Rosebank and Sandton visits. Restaurant is excellent. Staff very friendly and helpful

    Some parts look a bit old / out-dated and could do with some TLC, but that’s if I’m being picky!

    The staff was extremely welcoming. The room was lovely, well decorated. The pool is very nice, yet it was a bit cold (March) but that’s okay. The restaurant serves delicious food for lunch and dinner and the breakfast was nice.

    Overall, I enjoyed my stay and I will definitely stay there again on my next JHB business trip!

    I stayed in room 2 and it was not ideal that it is was so close to Reception, it was very loud at once point, but Peggy was vert kind and helpful and made sure that the inter leading door was closed and that there was no more noise for me. The guesthouse feels a bit outdated and I think could use some fixing up of some exterior / interior parts like the window panes, sliding door etc. It also looked a bit messy close to the shed in the garden and this could be neatened up for more of an aesthetic look.

    The bed was comfortable and there were nice pillow options. I often struggle to find a nice size pillow when I travel and this met my needs.
