Bedfordview Boutique Lodge  

Perched on a hill in Bedfordview, Germiston, this deluxe 4-star boutique lodge is seven minutes from OR Tambo International Airport and three minutes from Eastgate Shopping Centre. It sits close to Bedford Centre Shopping Mall and Glendower Golf Club — ideal for airport stops, shopping runs, or a quick round of golf.

Rooms mix thatch-roof upstairs suites with valley-facing views and classic downstairs rooms with pressed ceilings. En suites feature separate deep-soak tubs and rainfall showers, 47-inch LCD TVs and luxurious linen, plus personalized service. A six-sleeper self-catering unit with a fully equipped kitchen, living area and private bedrooms makes the place family-friendly and perfect for executive groups.

Relax in the open-plan lounge that spills into the garden, take a dip in the pool, fire up the on-site barbecue, or grab a drink at the bar/lounge. Complimentary wired and wireless internet, a terrace and secure free parking add easy convenience, while garden and valley views give mornings a calm, leafy vibe.

The property accommodates small meetings with a 70 sq ft meeting room and offers luggage storage, dry cleaning and private check-in/out. An area shuttle and roundtrip airport transfer are available for a surcharge, and complimentary newspapers are provided in the lobby.

Enjoy a complimentary Executive Breakfast for lodge guests; the on-site restaurant serves lunch and dinner by pre-booking and can cater special events and braais. Room service runs during limited hours and the bar/lounge stocks a selection of wines—staff will help source favourites when possible.
