4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 November 2011

We had 36 hours between planes in Johannesburg on the way to a safari. Airport hotels seemed sterile and expensive, downtown hotels bordered on questionable neighborhoods, and the Cradle of Humankind seemed like a suitable activity to work off jet lag. Google Maps showed the location of lodging choices and Trip Advisor provided excellent ratings information. We selected Amber Rose... More

We returned to Amber Rose and found that it was still the great place we had experienced previously. The rooms have every convenience and are extremely comfortable. Breakfast was superb as usual and stood us in good stead for the day. We will certainly return on our next trip to Johannesburg.

This place looks like a blast from the past (in a good way) with beautiful grounds (the pictures don't do it justice), a reading room/library, formal-looking breakfast room, etc. But it nonetheless feels very comfortable and welcoming and not at all pretentious. Even though we stayed there during the busy World Cup period, the hosts were nothing but charming and... More

We had booked a night's accommodation at the start of our World Cup Holiday. Understandingly, prices were jacked right up, & they were requesting full payment upfront. I had booked and paid for everything a few weeks before we arrived. As we were landing quite late, I had been in touch with them to find out a bit more about... More

I cannot believe the lack of integrity and poor communication of this place. After confirming that they have a self catering apartment for me, and me saying I'd like to go ahead and confirm the booking, I get an email that they can no longer give me the apartment, but two rooms instead. I then request a description of the... More

Amazing place 5 minutes away from Montecasino Hotel and Casino, very nice, roomy and clean place with great staff and very friendly owners. Beautiful terrace to have tea or breakfast with a view of the gardens. Good location, with local attractions near by: Lesedi village, Lion Park, Cheeta research center, Hot air ballooning ... etc. The rooms are air conditioned... More

We had the privilege of staying at Amber Rose Country Estate for the second time in three years and enjoyed our second stay as much as the first. From our arrival to our departure (early on Sunday morning) we felt truly at home. Mackenzie assisted with our check in and Brave drew the short stick and had to serve us... More
