Cleanliness — we couldn't help but notice the ugly grey mould growth around the caulking and in the corners of the tub area. Not very appealing I gotta tell you, not very appealing at all!

And staying with the cleanliness theme, the carpet mats in the room area have likely been there for quite some time. I can only imagine how many pairs of sweaty feet have traipsed over them. Time for a refresh, or even better yet, get rid of them completely and stick with only the tiled floor.

Sleep Quality -- you have to do better! My partner and I have stayed at B&Bs the world over and in our opinion at least the mattresses your establishment provided rank as some of the poorest we have come access. You’re in the BED business after all where guests are looking for a luxurious BED experience. The mattresses you provide should be plush and COMFORTABLE to sleep in. An “oh my God these beds are beautiful” experience is what we were expecting. The thin, firm and well-worn product provided by Rivonia is certainly not worthy of the rate they charge to rent the room.

We also ordered a dinner one evening at their restaurant. For the most part the meal served was satisfactory, but the lead time could be shortened. I appreciate that their food is prepared fresh to order but waiting some 45 minutes for a burger to show up is a little excessive in my view. Breakfast however was of superior quality and the staff in attendance for the breakfast service were excellent.

We booked Rivonia B & B due to our air travel being in the evening. We found this to be far more comfortable than staying at a hotel. We could not have been happier with our accommodation and the staff provided excellent service. A driver was also available should the clients wish to take advantage of this service. We would thoroughly recommend this attractive well maintained facility to travellers desiring pleasant and comfortable short term accommodation.

The accommodation is superb and set in beautiful gardens. Breakfast is always excellent and the setting provides the opportunity to watch the birds feeding at the same time. The wi-if is also good.

A hassle to enter/exit

We spent one night at Rivonia B&B in mid September and had a comfortable stay. We had a standard room, close to the pool and dining room, with a nice outdoor sitting area. The bed was comfortable and the room was clean but not very spacious. The shower requires attention - the tiled floor continues into the shower area and the flow of water down the shower drain is not sufficient to stop the water backing up and flowing across the floor. Staff were friendly and helpful, and breakfast was plentiful and tasty. There is a restaurant precinct within a short drive. The venue is secure within a gated community, but difficult to locate and exit with many dead-end streets nearby.

Sleep at Rivonia BB if you're in Joburg

I stayed 4 nights at Rivonia B&B and all I have to say is that it absolutely deserves all of its good reviews. My room was nice, clean, and comfortable. Breakfast was great. Staff was friendly and welcoming. The location is nice and safe (upscale neighborhood in the northern suburbs of the city). WiFi was working well, which was not at all the case at other hotels during my trip. Overall great value for money! I recommend!!

We were warmly greeted by the receptionist who graciously explained all the facilities, and the need to knows of the B&B and were escourted to our room by cheerful gentlemen. The room was warm and eloquently presented, later we discovered that there was underground heating(absolutely lovely and great for those gold Joburg nights). The room was modernly decorated with a lavish king-sized bed,and an amazing view. It really was an amazing get away

Rivonia B&B

I have stayed at this hotel before and returned finding the same excellence as my previous experience. The staff and service is of a very high quality. They are very accommodating and allowed us to get into our room early. The owner offers personal service and you can see that their staff are hard working and always ready to please. My overall experience once again was fantastic and I would recommend Rivonia B & B to anyone looking at staying in Johannesburg.
