Tucked away in a quiet corner of historic Parktown just off the M1 highway, this hotel is conveniently located for anyone needing easy access to the inner-city as well as the main business hubs of northern Johannesburg.
The Wits University campus is just up the hill as is the huge Johannesburg Hospital. The hotel occupies an historic Victorian mansion that was once the home of Lord Alfred Milner who lived here while acting as administrator of the two Boer states following the British victory in the South African War (1899-1902).
The large terrace surrounded by lush green gardens is a nice place for a morning coffee, and the old-fashioned Pound & Penny Pub has plenty of good beer options and a menu filled with classic pub food.
