Premier Hotel OR Tambo
We just used the room for a few hours during a layover and it was comfortable and very convenient. Courtesy bus is a bit had to find as with most things in JNB the signage is atrocious! Would definitely use again

Southern Sun O.R Tambo
Clean room. Quiet. Asked if we would like a bag breakfast as we were leaving very early to airport. Changed our room because we had trouble on the web page finding what worked best. Polite staff. Timely shuttle-no waiting.

Nice, friendly staff, beautiful surroundings good food, and wonderful cocktails by the pool in the afternoon. Right next to the airport, you can actually see the planes. Would come back again.
