Travellers' Choice
Opened in 2006, Clico Boutique Hotel is perfectly situated in the leafy and upmarket suburb of Rosebank in Johannesburg – South Africa. Centrally located to the “Joburg” city centre, high end business hubs such as Melrose and Sandton and metres away from the Rosebank Clinic, Clico’s location is convenience at your fingertips. Just 900 metres away from the Rosebank Gautrain station, the OR Tambo International airport is now only 20 “stress free” minutes away. Clico was established by Jeanette Schwegman, who wanted to cater for the travel-weary and discerning guest looking for that intimate experience by paying attention to all the important details.

We enjoyed our stay. The staff were all so helpful. The restaurant is very elegant with exquisite service an an artistic menu. I do not have more to say and trip advisor should not force me to write 200 characters.

This hotel is conveniently located in Upscale Rosebank. It’s easy to Uber to Museums and walk to the Rosebank mall were there is an African arts and crafts marketplace. Breakfast is included and is a delicious choice of Buffet items and ordering off the menu or customizing your own. The breakfast is incredible! The front office staff are glad to help you navigate your way around for tourist attractions, museums and events. Charlotte & Peggy and full of helpful ideas! The rooms are very small- good for a solo traveler but too tiny for a couple. It’s a great value to have that fabulous breakfast and overall convenience and central location.

Dear Valued Guest Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback. We are so thrilled that you enjoyed your stay at Clico. Chef Dario de Angeli and his team are doing outstanding work in the kitchen starting with breakfast right through to dinner. The food is really special as you experienced first hand! The Clico staff take pride in creating special Clico memories and we are so pleased that this was true during your stay with us. Clico's location to the Rosebank hub is perfect in that one feels you're not in a city and yet it's accessible to so much of the arts and cultural offerings of Rosebank. We hope you will visit again soon! Regards The Clico Team

We loved our three night stay in this boutique hotel. Our room was very comfortable with a balcony overlooking the pool - perfect for afternoon gin and tonics - and the staff were very welcoming and super helpful. I mistakenly booked our flight from Cape Town into HLA - another Johannesburg airport much farther from town - and Dan met us there without even adding to our pick up cost. A major plus for this hotel is the outstanding restaurant. The breakfast buffet with an additional eggs+ menu was generous and delicious. The dinners were so good we ate there every night. The food was delicious and the service impeccable. I will probably not pass this way again but if I do, I will certainly return here.

The staff was very helpful and friendly. The amenities in the hotel were adequate. Our rooms were near the reception, which is not ideal if it gets busy. There was some noise during the last night of our stay. It takes less than 10 minutes to walk to Rosebank mall and other restaurants. Overall, our stay was good.

Great place if you want to stay in Rosebank area. Very nice staff. In particular at the front desk and very good room. As seen in other places the very nice bathroom, at l’est in some room, don’t have floor to ceiling doors which can be surprising at first. Excellent stay.

This is our second stay at the Clico and we were even more impressed this time. Our family had three rooms, and all were quite satisfactory. We found the glass door to the bathroom a bit odd. The grounds are lovely. The restaurant is nearly amazing, from breakfast to the wine list at dinner. Being walking distance from the Rosebanks mall enabled us to get out for some exercise after the long transoceanic flight.

We enjoyed staying at Clico Hotel in Johannesburg, exceeded all my expectations. It is an elegant boutique hotel, We loved by its vintage charm blending seamlessly with modern amenities .Incredible shower. It was spacious, had great water pressure, The attention to detail was evident throughout, and the comfortable mattress combined with the soft and luxurious sheets ensured a restful night's sleep. The restaurant at Clico Hotel was a true gem, especially on a winter night. It had a cozy and quiet ambiance, perfect for a relaxed evening. The elegant decor added a touch of sophistication, yet it remained comfortable and inviting. The menu offered many options, including several vegetarian dishes, catering to a variety of dietary preferences. I thoroughly enjoyed the food and service. Another advantage of staying at Clico Hotel is its convenient location. Situated near a large shopping center, I had easy access to a wide range of stores and amenities. Additionally, the Sunday marketplace was just a stone's throw away, providing a delightful opportunity to explore local crafts and produce. For those seeking alternative dining options, I discovered another fantastic restaurant, Marble just a block away from the hotel. While it was close enough to walk, I would recommend exercising caution when returning at night. Nevertheless, the short stroll was worth it, as the trendy restaurant offered exceptional cuisine and a vibrant atmosphere. I am already looking forward to returning to Johannesburg, and without a doubt, I will choose to stay at Clico Hotel again.…
