River Meadow Manor  

Tucked away in Irene, Centurion—between Pretoria and Johannesburg—River Meadow Manor sits in a leafy historical district. About 20 minutes from OR Tambo International Airport and a short drive from Smuts House Museum, Irene Village Mall and Rietvlei Nature Reserve, this upscale guesthouse makes a calm base for exploring the region. Family-friendly and easy to reach from both city centres.

Country-style sophistication meets modern comfort amid lush pastures and old oak trees. The property offers 28 air-conditioned rooms with minibars, safes and coffee/tea makers; some rooms include LCD/plasma TVs. Expect elegant, relaxed décor, daily housekeeping and accessible facilities like elevators and disabled-guest provisions.

Dive into an indoor pool or soak up sun at the outdoor pool. There’s a fitness center, garden, games room, picnic and barbecue areas, plus a bar and restaurant on site. Free self-parking, concierge, laundry/dry cleaning, airport and train transfers (surcharges may apply), and a shuttle within 10 km keep stays effortless. Wake up to green-pasture mornings and unwind in peaceful grounds.

A fully equipped conference venue and flexible function rooms make this a strong choice for meetings and weddings. Business center, meeting rooms, complimentary wired and wireless internet (high-speed) and limited free train station pick-up help keep events and workdays running smoothly.

Enjoy fine dining at the on-site restaurant, grab a drink at the bar/lounge, or order room service. Cooked-to-order breakfasts are served daily from 7:00–9:00 AM for a fee, and the kitchen focuses on exquisite, well-crafted meals to round out each day.
