2 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 June 2013 NEW

Depressing lighting in the rooms. The conditions were dirty. Paint was peeling off of the walls. Upholstery was worn. Stains on carpets, walls, furniture. Front desk people were cold. The bed was uneven. The entry to the room was dark and under a stairwell. Truly claustrophobic.

We stayed two nights at this boutique hotel after our tiring but enjoyable safari trip. Our first good impression was the manucred garden and the home like layout of the 12 units. The staff were friendly and the food in the bistros is delicious and reasonably priced. The hotel is located at Melrose and about 20 minutes walk away from... More

Thank you for taking the time to review us. I have noted the points you made regarding our WiFi and new staff and will endeavour to fix both in the coming week. I will also review our transfer prices with our supplier. It helps us alot to get a guests viewpoint as sometime we get too close to our product!... More

Stayed here in April and then in May while traveling in Africa. Wonderful, warm, friendly staff right down to the resident cat "Peaches". Small 16 unit boutique hotel with uncompromised attention to detail. I say this because when I returned for a second stay I was upgraded to the suite. The reason? They remembered that I enjoyed all the blooming... More

Just returned from a business trip to Jo'burg and stayed 2 nights at The Peech. Loved the location, the small size of the hotel, so trendy. We had a room in the main house (number 1). Lovely views onto the garden. Drinks on the outside patio, followed by tete-a-tete dinner in the intimate-sized restaurant - great food! Lovely breakfasts, attentive... More

This boutique hotel had the best bed I have ever slept on. The bathroom was very spacious and i was pleasantly surprised at the size of the room. The staff were polite and room service was a delightful dish... Would love to stay here again.
