    Lovely atmosphere, perfectly clean, in a very secure part of the area. This is a wonderful place for tourists to experience one of the many local cultures, and one of the very few opportunities to do so. It is also highly recommended for business persons because it is very well situated to moat of Johannesburg’s major business districts including Sandton, Randburg and the central business district jet it is in a save, quiet and beautiful area surrounded by small hills. The breakfast include an option between the usual that you get with all other good guest houses but also an option to choose from a variety of locally unique breakfast types including the best traditional local farm bread with farm fresh butter and a variety of traditional preserves, served in an authentic dining area, which is in its own a cuisine experience not to be missed. Friendly, professional and excellent service from wonderful people from a diversity of several local cultural backgrounds. Absolutely a must-include in the itinerary of any tourist.

    The bed creaked whenever someone moves.

    The location is in the perfect location, right by restaurants, but also quiet and has a great view. the staff are also delightful and friendly.

    Not that it's something the staff could help, but of course, the load shedding is at times rather impractical. Also, one evening, there wasn't any water. But that too is part of a more general problem in S-A, not something the staff at Agterplaas is to blame for.

    Large, beautiful and very affordable room, with a lovely garden to sit in as well. The breakfast was copious and the people were extremely friendly.

    Great welcome from all the staff. I have been overclassed. The room was quiet and comfortable with much charm. The best breakfast I have never eaten in SA. Short circuit to reach the Melville night life, very discrete and convenaient. Very secure and convenaient garage, free of charge 👍

    I think for a bed and breakfast establishment it was wonderful. everything was to my my satisfaction.

    The breakfast was good and had a variety to choose from. seating area was spacious and staff was wonderful. We were greeted warmly , We were shown all the food on display and then taken to our tables, where we were offered coffee or juice., also given a breakfast menu to select our breakfast. wonderful menu so much to choose from.

    The staff is absolutely wonderful! I felt so taken care of. I had a nice room with everything I needed. They have really thought about the details. Its also quiet, I slept very well. The breakfast is the best, so much to choose from and all delicious! Beautiful view and lots of space to sit and enjoy (or work) both inside and especially outside.
