Melrose Place Guest Lodge - Accommodation
in Melrose, Johannesburg, Gauteng
Once ensconced behind the electric gates at Melrose Place Guest Lodge
near Johannesburg in the Gauteng Province you have
entered an Eden-in-the-city. The verandah overlooks a large flower
garden and enormous swimming pool, all shaded by trees. Eight new
rooms don’t crowd it at all. It is such a pleasant environment
that you may find yourself shelving projected tasks for a day’s
lounging about. The high levels of
luxury in all the rooms are not reflected in the rates. Sue is the
sweetest of hostesses, quick to smiles and reacting sensitively to
the mood and wishes of each guest.

On
the night you stay perhaps you
have a braai with an amazing array of meat dishes and salads
which appeared from nowhere, and Sue’s team will cook dinner for
anyone who wants it every evening. Her aim is to maximise the number
of happy campers staying. This is her home after all, complete with
kids, dachshund and a parrot in its 40s. While guest contentment is
running at 100 per cent, it’s difficult to see what else she can do.
Melrose
Place offers luxurious en-suite accommodation, centrally situated
between Rosebank and Sandton. The wonderful garden, shaded by many
trees, adds to the charming setting, and sets off the swimming pool
where guests can take time out to relax from the pace of their
travels.
Melrose Place is situated a convenient 30
minutes drive from Johannesburg International Airport, and once
settled you are minutes away from Rosebank, Sandton City, Gold Reef
City, the Wanderers Cricket Grounds, and numerous restaurants,
galleries, museums and other places of interest. Sun City is only 2
hours drive or a short flight away. It is are also
very close to the Rosebank Clinic and other first class medical
facilities.
