The property was beautiful. The rooms were comfortable and big and tastefully decorated. We also loved the sitting area outside our room where we could sit peacefully, look at the garden and drink tea/coffee. The breakfast was great. Natasha and Conway were great hosts. The staff were nice and friendly.

Nothing, it was a wonderful, if short stay.

Lovely place to stay for work or leisure, I will be back! It was great that Lucky Bean has an inverter so loadshedding was not an issue. Very friendly owners and staff!

We loved every bit of our stay, no complaints.

The guesthouse was very spacious, the 4 of us fit very well in one house/room, well separated. Conway, our very helpful host briefed us what to do in the area. The house with its beautiful garden is a safe little island, and nearby there are many restaurants and bars where you can go to (by taxi only). During the electricity cut off the generators (or maybe solar energy reserves?) at the house were working, so wifi, lights and USB plugs were working (only the water pipe system wasn't, but that goes for the whole Johannesburg). Breakfast was excellent. Conway also helped us arrange airport transfers. Beautiful, clean, comfy, thank you again for the great experience!

in the room we got there was no separate room for the bathroom, so if you are with friends you might want a different privacy.

everything was amazing! clean, relaxing, cozy, welcoming, space to chill in the evening with a glass of wine or tea. no mosquitoes. safe in the room to leave stuff locked. residential location but calm and safe. the breakfast was exceptional and the staff extremely kind and helpful. we could leave our bags in the office for the day when we checked out.

While we felt safe walking in the neighborhood, there weren’t many people strolling around

Fantastic hospitality! Our large room had a comfy patio in a lovely garden Conway was an attentive host with plenty of great tips for our first visit to Jo’burg. The Soweto tour with Cecilia was thought-provoking. Overall a great place to land!

Property is beautifully kept, spotlessly clean, spacious, safe. And conveniently close to Milpark hospital where I have a family member in critical care. Going there after a long day spent at the hospital was… allowed me to destress in a warm, comfortable and welcoming setting. I’ve done the rounds of hotels up to the highest end, and I’ll go back to Lucky Bean Guesthouse any day of the week and twice on Sundays.

Nothing

We only stayed one night at Lucky Bean Guesthouse but it was the perfect landing pad after a long journey. The bed was super comfortable and allowed us to beat our jetlag with a good night's sleep. Murphy was very helpful with check-in and gave great recommendations for nearby restaurants. The grounds are beautiful and lush and we loved the art on the walls.

That i couldn't stay longer

A gorgeous place in a tranquil green setting in Melville, a quiet residential area with funky little cafes and shops. Comway and Natasha were wonderful , welcoming hosts and went above and beyond to help. The room was stunning and had a sofa area with TV and a lovely bathroom with oth walk in shower. The decor was beautiful- tasteful and funky. The setting in lush green gardens with use of a small. Pool is a super relaxing plave to be. Also had a great selection for breakfast and solar power for those of you worried about thr load shedding. I forgot to mention... The beds!! Oh my!! So comfy, as were the range of pillows. The best 2 njghts sleep in ages. I would kd definitely recommend a stay here and it will be my go-to place if i stay in Joburg in the future. Thanks for an amazing time, Conway and Natasha!

A minor thing, while the room was comfortable, the toilet is right next to the bed with little to seperate the two.

Conway, Natasha and Murphy were very accomodating and went above and beyond to assist us where possible. The guesthouse was clean, included delicious breakfast and despite the weather, the pool was nice. Melville is a nice location with plenty of bars, restaurants and cafes to visit. The recommendations by the hosts are top notch. They have a great understanding of what to do in Jo’burg, no matter what kind of trip you are after.

The load shedding was a bit of a problem but that wasn't the owner's fault. The owners took steps to minimize the impact of the of the load shedding on their guests. The extensive load shedding in the country has been much worse this year than in all previous years.

The hosts, Conway and Natasha were there everyday, answered all our questions, and made us feel at home. Quiet garden setting was perfect for relaxing when not out seeing Joburg. The breakfasts that Muphy made each day were outstanding.

The breakfast was varied and tasty with fruit, muesli, eggs as desired, toast, mushrooms and tomatoes, coffee or tea.

The atmosphere was filled with positive vibes. Mr. Conway was kind enough to share his views about why Argentina has an edge over France in the Football World Cup Final 2022. And.. guess what, he was right. :) Wonderful host, nice breakfast.
