A very pleasant small hotel. Our room was an ok size off the courtyard with a sparkling small swimming pools, immaculately clean, good WiFi, fridge, a/c, TV we didn't try and tea and coffee.
Breakfast was a choice of cooked or cold options with cereals, tea and coffee. Not the largest breakfast but ok to start your day. Dinner isn't offered and the nearest restaurant, a decent large family place serving all options, was 600 metres walk. Other places from 1.5km, too far without a car. Prices for airport drop off which most people will be here for was an efficient but pricey 250 rand.
A pity on our second separate night a few things went wrong. A message on the door to ring for admitting, from the UK thats 60 rand a minute. And the taxi to the airport the follwoing day was not arranged, we had to make last minute calls.

Good place, but bad reception, and lack of life

I reached around 7pm and there was nobody in the property, so I had to wait more than 20min for someone to come and open the door for me

Peaceful and practical

At a reasonable distance from OR Tambo, in a safe and calm neighbourhood, President Lodge offered a refreshing change for 3 nights between 2 international flights.

Breakfast was pleasant with a wide choice. There's a nice conference room (used and appreciated) and a small swimming pool (untested). There was no issue about cleanliness and the room was fine although I found the decoration to be somewhat drab but that's a personal opinion as I love colours. On the other hand, Internet was fast and the air-conditioner worked well during the heatwave. The owner was helpful and so were her employees.

rolling power outages-ask ahead

stay fri-sun and was picked up by the owners for 300RAND the uber was only 99rand but he was patient and helpful. The room was spacious and clean. the facility I loved. The layout was great. My only complaints were the Power outages. There is a schedule. This needs to be in the description. WARN the guests. I had food in the fridge. our heater shut off. I had business to conduct and I NEEDED wifi. Also, because there was no electricity, they could not offer the full breakfast. but they still had a fair option. Also, after the power restored the internet was still down for an hour or so. Please have a back up data service if you need internet. I wish it was warmer. I wanted to swim. I wish I had more time for the tub. The water pressure was GrEaT. the pillows were also really nice. If the electricity/wifi didn't cut out this would have been a 9.9 review.

It was like staying with loving family. They went beyond making us feel at home. Even taking us to a Doctor when my husband was sick.

Special comfortable place, with very special people running the President Lodge.

Lovely outdoor area

This hotel was great our one day layover in Joberg. Ideal if you have a car, however there was a good family restaurant within walking distance. The included breakfast at the hotel was excellent. And the outdoor area was really nice. The owner allowed us to stay by the pool and veranda all day after checkout since our flight didn’t take off until the following evening.

Close to the airport

We used this as a transit stay over in Joburg. Chilled atmosphere the managers smile couldnt be bigger when we arrived and immediately put us at ease. Great family vibe and value for money 100 percent. Pick ups very reasonable from the airport and a must given the issues there. As a place to rest and prepare for your onwards trip couldnt recommend it enough

WONDERFUL WONDERFUL HOST !!!

From beginning to end the host at this property (Jannette, Elaine, and Deon) were absolutely AMAZING. The arrival greeting was very welcoming. The host go out of their way to ensure you have an enjoyable stay. Whether its recommending daily activities or restaurants to try. The rooms were exactly as described and pictured on the website, very clean and comfy. The food prepared fresh daily was DELICIOUS !!! I felt very safe at this property and would definitely stay here again and recommend it to my friends and family traveling to Johannesburg.

Friendly, helpful & comfortable

We enjoyed our stay at President Lodge. The room was comfortable and breakfast was delicious. The owners and staff were very friendly and helpful, suggesting places that would be specifically of interest to us (wildlife viewing, restaurants). We highly recommend this hotel and only wish we could have stayed longer.

Great place, AMAZING hosts!

We were greeted with warmth and offered two rooms instead of one at the same cost as we were a travelling couple and single person. We had booked a family room and instead they offered us to separate rooms. The breakfast was wonderful and fresh, fast, and delicious. Hey made a great recommendation for dinner at a nearby restaurant. Elaine was more than helpful when I had to go to the clinic for an unexpected eye infection--she drove me there and was a lifesaver for that! President Lodge felt very safe and secure without feeling too much like you had to be barred in. Janette and Elaine were wonderful hosts and very accomodating. The son was also super friendly and helpful. Definietly a great stay at a wonderful place.

Wow service at President Lodge

We stayed 2 nights on our way from Botswana to USA. The room was perfect, dinner was perfect and so was breakfast for all the 2 days. This is women owned business , they are phenomenal! Check out is 10 am and my flight was 11:19pm so the owners agreed for my evening check out without any extra charges . They go an extra mile to accommodate their customers. I reccomend anyone to try this lodge out, it's worth it.

Es un hotel familiar muy agradable, con piscina y habitaciones de buen tamaño.
Sobre todo destacaría lo bien que nos han tratado. El desayuno y la cena que encargamos eran muy buenos.
El último día teniamos un vuelo tarde y nos dejaron quedarnos con las habitaciones (eran 3 habitaciones) hasta las 18h, que es la hora a la que partimos para el aeropuerto.
Recomiendo totalmente este hotel!!!
