DESCRIPTION:

On your arrival at Craighall House, the garden will envelop you, in summer the bursts of colour, the wisteria and carefully tended roses, in winter, the evergreens, warm Johannesburg days and cosy evenings by the fire. A small, personally run guesthouse, close to Sandton, Rosebank and Melrose Arch and a short drive to the Johannesburg CBD. You will find the staff treat you with exceptional courtesy and the regularly re-furbished individual rooms are comfortable and charmingly decorated with an eye to detail.

Rooms
In your room, your bed will be the central feature, comfortable and well made with crisp, clean, white linen. All the bedrooms are en-suite with well appointed bath or shower rooms. A fridge will provide you with fresh milk every day so you can make yourself tea or coffee. And your challenge is to spot the additional special features in the room that you’re unlikely to find in a big international hotel.

The view on to the garden and pool from your own patio, the spacious living / dining accommodation and fully equipped kitchen with microwave and hob oven will ensure your exceptional comfort for an overnighter to a long-term stay.
