Basic but friendly - value for money

Basic but perfectly comfortable accommodation as a business traveller. Staff friendly and helpful (we needed to do a data change on the spot for one in our party which was happily accommodated). Furnishings and fittings a little tired and in need of renewal (the 2-prong plug point was so worn out that my phone charge kept falling out). Hot shower with good water pressure was greatly appreciated.

GOOD VALUE IN GREAT LOCATION IN RANDBURG

Road lodge in Randburg offers good value in an excellent location with comfortable accommodation that serves one well if you just away for a night or two as space is small and room amenities limited. But it does what it promises - a clean place to have a decent nights sleep at a good rate - I will however say, that the bed was a little hard for me and pillows a little too soft and cleanliness was not as great as I know other Road lodges to be - a little dusty and I found a used water bottle from a previous guest behind couch - but these are minor issues. Overall staff were friendly and helpful

Upon arrival, I was treated as a priority seeing that I was a regular guest to the hotel. The staff (especially the training manager) was professional and friendly, willing to provide a room with a specific view I requested. The room was clean and (seemingly) spacious because of the renovations and designed with the smoking guest in mind. It was a comfortable stay and I enjoyed it as always. Please pass on these tips to Road Lodge Centurion as that branch is in need of a few upgrades and their pricing has gone through the roof with no added benefits. Thanks.

The staff are always friendly and helpful. However, I am writing this review at 4:30 A. M. because the AC kept switching from warm (not hot) to cold every 5 minutes. I had to turn it on and off the whole night just to stay warm. I could have asked for a technician to fix it but those guys never come so I didn't bother. I'm a regular. With winter approaching, please maintain your AC or conduct a tune-up on the units. It was freezing.

The ice cold water at reception was refreshing in the hot weather.

A toilet brush and one more movie channel on Dstv would be great. I'm not sure if your vending machine has alcohol, like the one in Centurion, but if it doesn't, you should go for a liquor license.

Road Lodge is a reliable accommodation. As a frequent guest, I can honestly say I like the changes made. They might be small but they're significant. Bedding and curtains look cleaner and brighter, the bathroom partition is a great addition as well as the coffee sachets. I love the staff here - friendly and professional. Thanks guys. Keep it up.

My children have been staying at the hotel for almost a month now but the way my children get treated by the staff there when am a few hrs late with the extension payment, it is very aporlling to say the least. They get locked out of the room and made around the hotel in school uniform, when they have been staying there for that long, i may pay late but i always pay them.

Very unhappy when i check out i will never go back again or recommend the hotel any body.

Unbelievably disgusting!!!!!!

In my 40 years of travelling, it was the most disgusting night in a hotel that I can ever remember having experienced. The room smelt like 20 people had been holed up in there for a week smoking 1000 cigarettes with the windows closed. On departing I brought the matter to the manager's attention and the only response I got from her was \"oh thank you, I'll have the cleaners put a deodorizer in there\". No apology from her of any sort whatsoever. Disgusting, disgusting absolutely disgusting. If it was not on the weekend, I would have called in the health department to deal with matter. Unfortunately I booked and paid online and when I got there on Friday evening I was told that the room I had been given was the only one available due to a church convention having booked up most of the rooms. Nobody asked me whether or not I wanted a smoking or non-smoking room.The stench was so pungent that I put all my clothes (clean or dirty) in my suitcase and to make sure that my clothes did not get contaminated I closed and locked it. It was so bad that in the middle of the night I actually sprayed some deodorant on my pillow so that I could get some uninterrupted sleep.

Classic hotel requires more care

Road Lodge is usually my go-to hotel for affordable, comfortable accommodation. And still is. However, their features and facilities such as air conditioning units and TV sets are starting to show signs of aging, both in appearance and function. I also wish the staff would be more involved in protecting the privacy and respect between customers. My sister and I were short of being harassed by customers in the passage, who had their room door open the entire day and called us lesbians as we passed. Another lady was cat-called several times as a persistent customer from the same group tried to hook her. The establishment itself will stand the test of time. However, its reputation will likely be destroyed by the lack of discipline or enforcement thereof among guests.

Nice hotel centrally located.

This was my third visit but first in five years. The general appearance seemed to have come down. Maybe needs bit of upgrade/upkeep. E.g carpeting looked worn out. I made a mistake of selecting smoking and it was awful, maybe can't blame hotel for that.

The hotel and receptionists were great. The poor wi-fi service was a problem. housekeeping seemed to lose direction and we had request that our towels that were removed be replaced - had no towels on one day and also had to request toilet paper. The security guard on the entrance gate was not effective as on a number of occasions we had to wait and try and find him to let us in. The night guards also posed a problem as they ended up each night on the bench outside our window and chatted throughout the night disturbing our sleep - suggest you have bench removed.

Decent hotel for passing guests

I often book into Road Lodge Randburg when in Johannesburg for business, and it is a great place to crash for the night. The rooms are decent and so is the staff. Not many facilities but I like that the prices are predictable. One thing that irks me is that the room service staff always come knocking and ask guests if they booked another night, which is offensive. they should check with desk staff first before accusing guests for staying too long. I would also appreciate a sitting area exclusively for guests.

The staff was very helpful and really outstanding - even though the water was currently of, they tried to accommodate us to another City Lodge. Water came on and we were booked in.

We where given a smoking room, though it was not an option on the hotels.com booking.
This is not a lack of information on the Lodge's side, but rather the online booking system via Hotels.com, and no other room was unfortunately available

We decided not to even stay over, as the cleanliness of the room was questionable due to the overpowering smell of smoke, and we drove back the same night.

Real value for money

Use road lodge hotels often due to their affordability for my wife and I. Facilities are comfortable and the aircon was super efficient. For our ten pin bowling tournaments road lodges always seem to be very well positioned to the venues we use.
The ice machine in the lobby works well the only drawback being nothing to put the ice in to carry to your room besides a plastic laundry packet.
