Unhappy

Had to leave early the morning for the airport and there was no hot water in the shower. The bed also did not have a fresh smell to it.

The hotel is opposite the airport and therefore very practical if you arrive late or have a super early flight. Though the rooms are very small, they are clean and enough for a one night stay. The staff were so friendly to hand us a baby cot for our little one even though it could not be added as option on the Expedia website.

We stayed there 12 years ago when it was very basic- this time it was very much improved. If you are looking for a convenient, good value and clean place to stay before an early morning flight you can’t go wrong😀

OK Place to Stay for early flights

The rooms are very small - and the fans are very noisy - but ok overall for an airport hotel. Our only complaint concerns the initial offer of a room at the end of the hallway on the ground floor with the noisiest fan in the building with a view of the hotel's plant. It really seemed like the worst possible room in the hotel - and one always remains puzzled by the assignment of the worst first. The second room was one floor up and reasonably quiet with a view of the garden - why would this be second?

I did not enquire about the shuttle service

We booked an overnight stay to coincide with our arrival from Johannesburg Lanseria airport and our departure to London Gatwick. What looked like a short walk from the airport to the hotel turned out to necessitate a taxi. Lack of planning on my part. I should have investigated the availability of a shuttle service provided by the hotel. I was made aware of the shuttle service on arrival at the hotel but I had already booked my return journey to the airport. I am not sure if the shuttle was complementary or not but I would recommend asking about the shuttle as airport taxi providers hold all the cards if you have not pre-booked.

Convenient airport stay

Very convenient location - easy walk to the airport. Basic room was clean and comfortable for overnight stay. Good buffet breakfast available. Gated access to property with 24 hour security - felt very safe. Would stay again if needed airport hotel.

An ideal pre-departure stay, with only an 8 minute walk to the terminal. Staff are friendly, rooms basic but spotless, with all the basics you’d need.

Proximity to the airport was great. Room was clean and all basic necessary items were readily available in the room. Can be noisy whenever someone's walking in the hallway though. And we couldn't get service to carry our luggage to the second floor.

The aircon was leaking onto the carpet, shower drainage wasn't working and no access to vending machine or decent drinking water. Will never stay at Road Lodge again.

Convenient budget hotel

A convenient budget hotel within walking distance of the airport. A good breakfast. Rooms are small and in need of an upgrade. The Aircon in our room didn't work but the staff were happy to move us.
