This is the finest hotel I have ever stayed at. The Presidential Suite was extremely reasonable in price compared to a comparable hotel in the US. The staff is absolutely fantastic. The Nova Bistro restaurant in the hotel serves fantastic food and huge portions at a reasonable price. The cocktail prices are extremely fair. I highly recommend The Houghton Hotel for your next stay in Johannesburg.

Our stay at the hotel was truly exceptional from start to finish. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with such warmth and genuine friendliness that immediately set the tone for the rest of our visit.
A special thank you to Zama from Guest Relations, who went above and beyond to make our experience memorable. Her attention to detail, professionalism, and kindness truly stood out — she is an absolute asset to the hotel.
We were also incredibly grateful that the hotel accommodated our early check-in request, which made our travel day so much smoother and more comfortable. It’s these thoughtful touches that really elevate a stay from good to unforgettable.
Overall, the service was outstanding, the atmosphere was inviting, and the team made us feel genuinely cared for. We would absolutely return and highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a warm, welcoming, and seamless experience.

Our presidential suite was absolutely superb with a great view over the golf course. Everything in the room we could have wished for, plenty of space and huge dressing room. The staff in check in were friendly and informative. They presented my 4yo with a teddy and rose which made her day. We ate lunch, breakfast and dinner in Nova. Food was big portions and very flavourful would highly recommend. I had a massage at the spa which was relaxing, a really pleasant area. All facilities were spotless.

World Class Experience

I stayed at The Houghton during an epic, solo birthday trip that took me to Paris, Cartagena, Cape Town, and Johannesburg. The Houghton was by far, without question, THE BEST place I stayed during my trip. Wonderful & attentive staff, great food, top tier cleanliness, a heated indoor pool, and more. I cannot complain. I look forward to returning again and again!

Hotel and staff are 5 star but pools were not clean enough to use it, sauna was not usable (very low temperature) no changing room there and nowhere near 5 star level. Indoor pool also was dirty. That is a shame considering that the rest of the hotel is good and everybody very friendly and helpful.

This is such a beautiful property. Everything about The Houghton Hotel gives 5 Star. From the rooms to the setvice. EXCELLENT.

The food at such a high class expensive hotel is quit bad. Also the access to the golf course should be streamlined. I stayed at the hotel so I could golf but had to request for a drive and when getting back and to phone the hotel ahead to b picked up. As a guest one should have easy access using the room key to go through the gates.

Home away from home

As usual only the best service and accommodation provided by the staff and establishment. Forever welcoming and only the best provided for their guests. Truly always a remarkable stay at the hotel with spacious clean modern rooms, warm smiles all round, facilities that are top notch that you can easily forget that this is not actually your real home, and is truly your home away from home, if not more. Keep up the amazing standards and we will be sure to keep making your hotel the only hotel we choose when we travel to Johannesburg. For work or leisure it’s simply the best. Pics won’t do justice, so come and experience it for yourself.

The staff were very welcoming and helpful. The facilities were very beautiful and the dining was top notch. The room and bed were also very comfortable. We were very disappointed that the Steam Room was not functioning properly, the Sauna was closed for renovations and the Jacuzzi was simply unavailable. We chose the result largely for those facilities that were not available so very disappointing.

Definitely worth the stay!

If I could rate this hotel ten stars I would. Luxury and top notch service from check in to check out.
Staff are insanely excellent.
Do yourself a favour and stay here.
We'll be back.
Thank you!

The room was huge. I didn’t expect the penthouse to be so big. It looked like an apartment. I just loved it!

Upon our second day at the Houghton Hotel, we realized that we had never stayed at a 5-star hotel that broadcasts its 5-star rating so blatantly and often. It seemed more to affirm a vision and goal rather than just being one, as most 5-star hotels are. If only an “A” for effort is what makes a 5-star hotel, but alas it is not. Effective efficient execution is what makes the difference and the Houghton remains a work in progress in that regard starting with the front desk and guest services. They seemed confused and lost as shown by their need to confer via committee to resolve issues.

However, there were notable bright spots. The hotel and grounds are beautiful (less the secondary unsanitary pool) and the VIP Coordinator & shuttle service sets the standard for what the rest of the hotel service needs to achieve regarding customer service. Another bright spot was the Nova Bistro, especially the breakfast staff. Kudos to the Porters as well.

Although 2 pools were in excellent condition, the secondary pool was in very poor condition and the hotel just kept dumping chemicals daily when the pool obviously needed to be drained and cleaned. Not only would this not occur at an average 5-star hotel, a fine dining, reservations only, restaurant would not allow for reservation booking outside of the operating hours; not to mention putting the onus the hotel guests to know operating hours.

The property was really nice the only horrible thing about the property is that the lights kept a going out our entire stay. Literally like 10 times a day although not long but the fact that it kept doing it at peak momenets in the trip like at dinner and breakfast and plenty times when we were in the room

Houghton Hotel Amazing, A Must Stay!

My family’s stay at Houghton Hotel was absolutely amazing. We will definitely stay here again during our next visit to Jo’burg. Our room was immaculate, the service and hospitality were exceptional. The staff were so kind, so helpful and so very thoughtful. They attended to our every need and always made sure we were comfortable and happy. We are a family of 4 (husband, wife and 2 young children) and we are well traveled. It can be difficult to find a place that all 4 of us enjoy, but this was definitely one of them! We very much consider this one of the top hotels we’ve ever been too!

Spent my honeymoon at the Houghton Hotel and from being greeted with a rose and complimentary glass of wine, we knew it would be a pleasant experience. From the front desk staff to the restaurant we were well taken good care of! Our room was beautiful and spacious. Delicious food and most friendly staff, we loved Sisa!

Will absolutely come again and recommend!

I haven’t been to all parts of South Africa but, I think this is the most beautiful hotel in this country. Everything was perfect. Oh, and I got upgraded from executive suite to the Penthouse. Everything about this hotel is wonderful. The staff, the breakfast, the drinks. Everything was amazing. This would be my hotel anytime I am in Johannesburg. I hope there are more branches in every city.

HOTEL IS A JOKE....PATHETIC

The hotel was a joke. My wife got stick in the lift for 5 minutes because in load shedding the generator doesn't work for at least 5 minutes!!!
My wife was screaming for help because with no power no lights and lift....and guess what the alarm in the lift didnt work either.
We will never stay there agin!!!

I really loved the look and feel of the hotel however there were two things that put me off in the room. One was - there was a cracked wall in top ceiling of bathroom which looked spa- like. This shld not have been missed as when you looked up you could see it. Then was the stain by the toilet that looked like smeared poop 💩 that wasn’t properly cleaned off. Other than these two items it was a pleasant stay.

The Houghten Hotel is incredible and if at any time we need to travel to Johannesburg again we will stay here. We stayed one night in a unit that was spread among the top two floors that was immaculate.
