A decent place to stay

Posted 10 Feb 2019 on Hotels
This is a decent hotel, but not overwhelming. It ticks all the right boxes, making it an average experience: Friendly staff, quiet area, spacious rooms, good WiFi, a pool, even a basic gym. They provide basic services, like laundry. However, unless you have transport, you will find it difficult to get around. It is located in a suburb of Pretoria, Pretoria-North, and the closest shopping centre, with shops and restaurants, is about 3 km away, not easy to walk to (also not advisable, as you have to cross some major roads). Even if you have a car, you have to plan very carefully. It once took met about 90 minutes to get from the CBD to the hotel, 6km trip, because of the traffic. All in all, a decent place to stay, but make sure you have reliable transport.

Very friendly staff that made us feel welcome, from the time we arrived until our departure. Brilliant breakfast with an awesome caring host.

A pleasant stay

It was a very pleasant and lovely stay. Were even upgraded without any additional fees. Very pleasant and friendly people and a great breakfast. Will always recommend it. A very quiet and tranquil atmosphere.

Like home away from home!

This family owned guesthouse was totally lovely, comfortable, quiet, and safe. I loved my room with the high ceiling, super cozy bed, spacious desk for working, and fast wifi. Breakfast was great too, and the owner, Elise and her son were really great, making sure we had everything we needed, giving us rides, and suggestions on things to see and places to eat nearby. I'll certainly be staying at Bohemian Rhapsody from now on when I need to come back to this area for work.

Behind the barbed wire in the middle of nowhere.

Very small, somewhat disorganized, operation. But you do get a good bit of personal attention, and the hostess did her very best to help us. The place has a lot of charm and potential. Location is a problem -- there's nothing of note nearby, and the barbed-wire fences on the premises (and all of the surrounding premises) give the appearance of a sketchy neighborhood. I would consider this as a budget alternative, not as a luxury alternative. The breakfast room and garden are very pleasant.

A good experience overall

Posted 7 Jul 2010
The bed and breakfast provided shuttle service to and from the airport as well as rides around the area. Although the services come at a price, we appreciated having the convenience especially during the World Cup - when we went. The service was friendly and staff helpful. Only stayed for one night but appreciated the help and welcome.
