Ingrid et Graham étaient serviables, disponibles et attentifs aux besoins particuliers de bébé. Leur générosité et sociabilité nous donne l'impression d'être en famille avec eux.

I was surprised my request for early access (to bag drop) was responded to - immediately.
On arrival I felt welcome and immediately comfortable. The suite I was shown to; spacious, modern, uncluttered. Later I learned there is another cottage that is equivalent (I am staying in it on my 2nd trip and it is equally well catered for).
Despite being in a residential area there are excellent nearby restaurants that catered well for me as a solo traveller. Access to the city centre is simple and direct. For anyone with security concerns the surrounding area has active (security) patrols and their efficiency is evident in the number of solo joggers and walkers I have seen in the early morning runs I took around Zoo Lake.
I can say with confidence this is where I'll be asking for accommodation on future trips to Joburg. Having stayed in other similar accommodation; hotels and lodges, on a value scale there is no comparison. In terms of comfort and generally feeling welcome I am delighted to have discovered Forest Haven. It is what I have sought for my business travels.

Absolutely nothing.

Everything. The accommodation is extremely comfortable with everything one needs. Modern and exceptionally clean. Ingrid, the host is continually upgrading equipment, etc. For example, with all the loadshedding she purchased a gas plate and stove top kettle for the unit. Ingrid is friendly, helpful and interested in her guests. One feels like family, rather than a guest.
Absolutely nothing.

A real gem, hidden in the urban jungle. So glad I found this place on bookings.com.
The pictures don't do justice to the rooms. Wish I could have stayed longer.
Place was immaculate and the owners were extremely friendly and helpful. If ever I'm in Jhb again, this will be my preferred accommodation
