Rooms are well priced, very good breakfast and within walking distance to the Gautrain and Nelson Mandela Square. A bar is located right on the premises. Leave your laptop at home and use their computer.

Oh dear. As a seasoned world traveler I made a rookie mistake. I really wanted to kick myself. I sent my flight details to Worldmate and they then suggest hotels to you. Instead of booking into a City Lodge as I normally do I made the mistake of selecting this hotel from the list suggested by Worldmate. In an effort... More

Hi, My boss and I were booked into the The Westford Hotel on the 11 March and the 12 March by the owner of this page. Linda Ellis. However much to our dismay we only spent a total of one hour before leaving without even requesting a refund and booking into the Garden Court Morningside which was a welcome relief.... More

We had three days in Jo'burg at the end of our vacation in South Africa. This hotel is very well priced for the location. The room was big and clean, the bathroom huge. The breakfast is really poor, but then, one can beat the price of the room! Staff was friendly, the girl at breakfast gave me the impression she... More

Had two connecting rooms for my family of five, wife, 2 teenage daughters and 12 y.o. son. Very close to Sandton City Mall. For the price it was great and a fraction of the price of other hotels nearby. Friendly staff and a fantastic breakfast which is included in the room rate. I've seen other reviews criticising the absence of... More

Clean, tidy rooms. Spacious and homely. Great value for money with buffet breakfast included. Breakfast basic but substantial. Staff at reception were amazingly friendly even though there was a hiccup with booking. Gentleman that showed us to the room was also friendly and very accommodating.

To put it simply - avoid this hotel. It is not for people wishing to visit Johannesburg and stay at a decent budget hotel. Even though the hotel is located in Sandton, a good neighbourhood and safe by Joburg standards, the Waterford is literally on the wrong side of the tracks. You absolutely shouldn't walk to and from the hotel... More
