I was pleasantly surprised by Rivonia. It is a quiet guesthouse nestled away in a beautiful corner of Sandton. I had never been to Jo-Burg before but knew that I didn’t want to stay in a more commercial hotel; I wanted a feel for the real Johannesburg. Right away the staff made me feel at home. My room was located... More

I brought a group of 9 people to South Africa. Rivonia B&B was the ideal place to start our journey.
