Location
Located in the heart of Johannesburg, The Residence hotel sits in a historic district district and offers the piano bar. There is a car park on site and Wi-Fi throughout the property.
Johannesburg Zoo is about a 25-minute walk from this guest house, and The Wilds Municipal Nature Reserve is situated about a 5-minute drive away. Sports fans can also visit Bidvest Wanderers Stadium, at a distance of 3.1 km from the 5-star hotel, and take their families to Hashtag Escape Amusement Center, which is nearly 10 minutes away by car. About a 25-minute walk from Acrobranch Melrose is a perk for guests staying at the accommodation. For those travelling from afar, Rand airport is 22 minutes' drive away.

Review by hotel critic
My recent stay at the Residence exceeded every expectation I had, leaving me utterly impressed with its unparalleled quality and attention to detail. The spacious private garden suite was a sanctuary of comfort, featuring a delightful sitting area and a charming patio that allowed us to immerse ourselves in the serene gardens right outside our door. I particularly appreciated the luxury of the electric kettle and tea facilities—perfect for enjoying a quiet morning brew while soaking in the tranquil surroundings. The dining experience was exceptional, with breakfast served beside an open fire, creating a cozy atmosphere that invited relaxation. Lastly, the warmth and professionalism of the staff truly elevated our stay; their willingness to ensure our comfort was evident in every interaction, including the late checkout that allowed us to savor our last moments in this remarkable hotel. The Residence is undoubtedly a haven of luxury and comfort, and I look forward to returning on my next visit to Johannesburg.
