Everything was simply perfect.
The manager Racuni was so accommodating. The place was sparkling clean and so quiet and peaceful. Would definitely recommend this as it is great value for money and central location

We came late on Saturday and left before light the following morning. Although we found no one there, after a phone call we were quickly helped. It was only a sleepover therefore did not see much of the facility. Our room was sufficient and had a beautiful modern bathroom, the best I had the whole trip. The bathroom door however has a glass riffle door and it is see through. I suggest a light curtain on the outside of the bathroom door.
The room had enough space for the 4 adults and luggage and we had a comfortable sleep.

Ideal place for anyone doing a few days business in the Joburg area. Centrally situated with good secure parking. Staff are always friendly and helpful. Rooms are all well kitted out with fridge, microwave, kettle, TV. Always a good hearty breakfast to be had before you start your day.

Stayed here with a school sports tour.
I was dubious at first by appearance of the rooms but soon began to appreciate the quaint rooms and the attention to detail by the owner and staff. Breakfast was substantial and a laundry service was available. The accommodation also had a swimming pool and for 25 rand a day, you could buy wifi access.
Overall, would recommend Ferndale lodge and is handily placed for Randburg and ideal for sports tours.

The pillows are extremely hard, the swimming pool has turned green, a lot of noise can be heard from the reception are, not from guests rather from employees, the toilet on the second room doesn't work....

Great place and people. Quiet place. Friendly staff. Lunch was special each day and the kitchen staff was attentive and friendly.

"There are 4 mini chalets set under beautiful evergreen trees near the top of the property with your own private table and chairs literally 2 steps from your door. Perfect for those long evening sundowners while the different species of birds settle into their nests above."Read full review
