This was my first time staying in central Johannesburg and I was a little apprehensive having heard about crime etc (my partner however is a former Johannesburg resident so much more blasé than me!). We stayed for three nights at the end of our trip to South Africa and thoroughly enjoyed our time at Cotswold Gardens. It is very central... More

We were very fortunate to have discovered Cotswold Gardens for our first visit to Johannesburg and South Africa.

Janine and Michael were wonderful hosts and made us feel very welcome, comfortable, and safe; what a wonderful introduction to the Johannesburg area! Janine suggested... More

Started our safari trip by spending a couple of days in Johannesburg. We could not have asked for anything nicer or more welcoming than Cotswold Gardens.

Janine organized shuttles to and from the airport, tours of the city, restaurants,... More

They connected us to an art... More

By far the nicest breakfasts that I've had while travelling. I highly recommend staying here, ample off-street parking, lovely environment, great location and by far the greatest thing about it, the... More

I loved my stay in Cotswold Gardens. Everything I could've wished for and more. Spotlessly clean, comfortable, and tasteful decor. Set in beautiful gardens, this is a peaceful and picturesque haven in the middle of a busy city. Janine and her husband went out of their way to be friendly and helpful, even to the extent of giving over the... More
