Positives: - good value - the hotel is about 10-15 minute drive away from the international airport. - there is a free shuttle bus to/from airport but it only runs once per hour. - breakfast/food is quite good (try 'hand luggage' on the menu) and reasonably priced. - free internet but there are only two computer terminals. - staff are...

The hotel is a 10-15min shuttle ride from the airport if there is no traffic, one of our trips took 25mins. The interior is dated, with the bathrooms in need of an update. Beware of the planes! The hotel is positioned in line with the runway & since there is no curfew at OR Tambo you could have planes flying... More

The Airport Grand was a comfortable hotel to stay in for business in Johannesburg. Just 15 minutes from the airport terminals with shuttle service, it is convenient. The rooms were spacious, and the hotel is upgrading rooms to flat screen TV's, though mine was still the bigger monster. Wi-Fi is available and worked sufficiently for my efforts to do worp... More

this hotel is average, maybe 3 stars and kind of outdated. the pictures are misleading, especially for the entrance. the breakfast on the other hand is fantastic. the noise is dreadful from planes flying over and quite scary. close to airport and cheap i guess, but not extremely clean, and kind of nasty bathrooms. very close to shopping mall.

The hotel is a bit old, but rooms and bathrooms are large, comfortable and clean. It is a short drive (10 minutes) to the airport and thus you can hear the airplanes. Beware that transfers are expensive and there is not much around the hotel. It cost us (family of 4 with luggage) R200 from the airport. The early transfer... More

I have stayed at this hotel several times as it was convenient for the airport as there was a regular shuttle running. This time however I was kept waiting for nearly an hour as the hotel has changed its policy on the shuttles and these only run every hour. I called the hotel about the long delay from the airport...

Sometimes ordinary hotels are just what you need...cheap and cheerful and fit for purpose. This is the Airport Grand. If you don't expect a lot you won't be disappointed but if your standards are a little bit higher or you're used to something a bit higher up the scale then this is not the hotel for you. It is not... More

We were booked into this hotel as a group booking. We arrived at 3pm only to find that some of the rooms weren't ready. We sat in reception to wait and as it was freezing cold and raining we ordered hot chocolate to drink (x4) and an Irish Coffee. After over 30 minutes one of the ladies in our party... More

Stayed here as we were in route from Zanzibar to Victoria Falls. The airport shuttle from and back was punctual. The staff was friendly during check-in and check-out. The room was a bit small, but fine for just a night layover. We ordered room service for dinner and the food wasn't anything to brag about, BUT the included breakfast surely... More

An acceptable hotel, but not very grand and not very near the airport (and with only an hourly shuttle bus to the airport). More
