Peace and quiet The food could use some updating - soups were fabulous, chicken too overcooked, salmon delivered perfectly!!

Wonderful staff, gorgeous property. Best meal of our 5 week trip in South Africa and Namibia - try the ostrich steak here!

best massage treatment I have ever had in my life - the rooms are incredible and the place is just magical - we will stay there every time we are in Jo-berg

The staff was super friendly. The place was lovely and had that modern touch with abit of old school. The breakfast was excellent. The room was out of this world maybe one of the best stay Ive ever experienced.

Absolutely stunning property. Our room had a sauna which really elevated the experience. Intermittent supply of hot water really took away from what would have been a perfect stay.

This is one of the most underrated stays in Johannesburg. Saying the facilities are beautiful is an understatement. The staff are friendly and kind. I wish I stayed longer, I would come back just for an extended stay here.

Fantastic, welcoming and comfortable property - old world charm with modern amenities. Staff were very engaging and we felt very relaxed. Unfortunately we were only there one night - but we enjoyed everything from airport pick-up, check in, delicious dinner and great breakfast selection to the transfer back to the airport. A special mention for the fire pit - a lovely place to sit and relax. Also beautiful big tub in the bathroom, and super comfy beds. Thanks to The Residence for a great experience, definitely keen to come back for a longer stay. Nil

Very stylish, suite very large and a wonderful outside jacuzzi in a large and lush garden. Luxury for sure. Waiting staff and food comes up short. Temperature wrong, repeatedly sending food back. Insanely and unnecessarily expensive (even when spending in USD). Boma round fire at night is a nice touch.

Food was bad. I like the design and layout. Private with various communal sections to enjoy as guests.

This is an utterly gorgeous hotel with superb service, excellent food and an exciting wine list.

The staff was AMAZING, i will most definitely be there again soon! Rooms are absolutely breathtaking, the food was to die for and the staff was the best that i’ve seen in SA. I’d also highly recommend their SPA.
