City Lodge Hotel at OR Tambo International Airport

City Lodge Hotel at OR Tambo International Airport

8/10 Good
"We had a great stay. The highlight was the convenience of being attached to the airport. After a long travel day, it was so nice to never have to step outside to get to the hotel. Our room was very clean, the bed was comfortable, and we felt safe. We also had dinner at the hotel downstairs and it was excellent. The staff during dinner was kind, welcoming, and attentive. I probably wouldn’t stay here if I had an early morning flight and had to spend a full day at the hotel, but if your flight arrives late and you’re flying out early the following day, this hotel is the perfect place to stay."
