We stayed in hotel for one night because our apartment was being painted. Amazing value, great rooms, comfort, quirky and friendly.

We stayed a Friday night. 8am on saturday we had coffee at Doubleshot (best... More

There is live music at the bar on some evenings. The hotel is in the student part of town, so lots of cool coffee shops, and... More

The Braamfontein area in the heart of Johannesburg is a great place to be and we were amazed at the trendy shops and galleries dotted along the area. At the bar we ordered drinks and lunch we enjoyed the atmosphere. Unfortunately the food took a very... More

Lamunu is a Design hotel, with carefully planned and implemented design in rooms, furniture etc. This is probably one of the coolest hotels in South Africa. Rooms are small and you may disagree with some of the design solutions, but everything works. WiFi is good, shuttle service is reliable and the hotel is withing walking distance from the Wits University.... More
