Sleepy Gecko Guest House  

In Melville, Johannesburg — a lively, café-lined neighborhood with a relaxed guest‑house vibe. Sleepy Gecko sits about 5 km from the city centre and roughly a 15‑minute drive to Melrose Arch and Gold Reef City; University of Johannesburg, Johannesburg Zoo and the Johannesburg Botanical Garden are all close by, and O.R. Tambo Intl. Airport is about 33 km away.

A small guest house with just nine air‑conditioned rooms that feel like a home away from home. Rooms come with flat‑screen/LCD TVs and satellite channels, safes, desks and phones, plus in‑room touches such as bathrobes and hair dryers.

Take a dip in the outdoor (seasonal) pool or the indoor pool, belt out tunes at karaoke, or fire up the barbecue area. Complimentary Wi‑Fi, a library corner and a shuttle service (surcharge) make staying easy, and free self‑parking is available onsite.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi keeps you connected; the guest house also offers laundry/dry‑cleaning, luggage storage and multilingual staff to help with arrangements.

An on‑site restaurant serves guests and the bar/lounge is perfect for evening drinks. A complimentary buffet breakfast is served daily from 7:30 AM to 10:00 AM.
