    A relaxed and classy guesthouse with great views
    We really enjoyed our stay at Pablo house. The facilities and rooms were great with nice attention to detail and an artistic flair. The food was delicious and with a great bar selection, the staff were friendly and helpful and the views overlooking the green hills are beautiful and in a safe neighborhood. Highly recommended.
    The food was a little slow to arrive, but was delicious and worth the wait.

    One of the best hotels I've ever stayed in, having travelled on all 5 continents, so go for it!
    I had such a great time staying at Pablo house. To start with the place itself, the rooms are very large, spacious and very clean. The surrounding area is one of the safest in Johannesburg, with 24-hour security, so I felt very safe. And the view on all Johannesburg is breathtaking, so get your camera ready, you'll get a great view, especially of the sunsets! The hotel has everything I needed: swimming pool, restaurant which is absolutely excellent for very affordable prices, I couldn't believe it. Last but not least, I was charmed by the service and dedication that Leigh and Louis (the hosts) gave me. After getting to know each other, they gave me tips and advices for my trip and are so kind and friendly that I now want to come back and see them.

    Wonderfully comfortabel and cosy home-away-from-home
    Pablo House offers a generous and relaxed atmosphere with wholehearted hospitality that made me feel welcome and at home the moment I stepped through the door. Laid back ambiance both favoured by tourists, and locals alike. Specious, comfortable rooms. Staff goes out of their way to assist you. Tasty, healthy and savoury cuisine.

    Very good with room for improvement
    The decoration of the lobby and the rooms is very nice. The food at the restaurant is very good too. The staff is very friendly and willing to please.
    The insulation of the facility is very bad so it was freezing everywhere even with the heaters on. The service at the restaurant is very slow with an average waiting time of one hour to get your food.

    Incredible boutique arty hotel, superb location, lovely staff and just the best hosts
    This is an amazing property in a fantastic location. Our room was brilliant but all rooms look great if honest. The communal areas are beautifully decorated and finished off with the most amazing artwork from local artists, reflecting Leigh and Lous own artistic personalities. The views over Joburg are second to none - literally it feels like the highest point with best views of sunset and sunrise. Food in the restaurant is lovely, bar is well stocked, and staff are all the best. Leigh and Lou round this off with being the most amazing hosts - warm and friendly, super helpful and as locals know everywhere to go an when. Everyone should visit this amazing city and I cant recommend Pablo House enough

    Would definitely stay again when in Johannesburg
    Nice boutique hotel with large, comfortable rooms which were well decorated, Netflix and even had a small courtyard. Breakfast was amazing, it seems to be a popular restaurant for locals. Staff were great and friendly. Free refillable filtered water available. Nice quiet location, beautiful view. Johannesburg seems very spread out where many tourist places require an Uber or some form of transport to get to. Getting around is pretty cheap by Uber so would recommend the location for the view alone. There's a supermarket about 5-10 minutes walk down the road (depending how good you are with hills).

    Shuttle is more expensive than an Uber however it was a nice vehicle with airconditioning, water and even snacks where many Ubers are old cars without airconditioning so I was comfortable to pay the small premium. Noticed Wi-Fi dropped off once or twice for a short period in my room which was a bit further away from the main building however it didn't affect me much because I had mobile data so can't really tell if it was a big issue..

    We truly struck gold at Pablo House!
    We rate our stay at PH at 11 stars out of 10! Everything is absolutely outstanding; the owners, staff, decor, rooms, views, beds, food, music, vibe Lee, Louie, and their staff have created the most welcoming and stylish vibe. We wished they could clone everything about PH so we could take the experience with us to every port. If we lived locally wed dine here regularly. The food and atmosphere are remarkable. Thank you for making us feel so at home and well taken care of.
    Nothing.

    Perfect small boutique hotel, with food and drinks to die for!
    Pablo House is perfectly located on a hilltop, with stunning views across Johannesburg. Our group of 4 stayed in the villa for 5 nights, and were blown away by the comfort and space. Breakfast and dinners in the restaurant were outstanding. The wine list is superb, and well priced. Cocktails were also much enjoyed. All staff are so friendly, and reflect the values and attention to detail of the owners. This was our second stay in Pablo House, and we wouldnt stay anywhere else in Joburg.

    Beautiful guesthouse
    Beautiful guesthouse, large rooms that are nicely decorated. Netflix included. The bed had a heated blanket which was nice. Breakfast was nice and delicious. Was only there overnight before another flight so can't really comment on the area. It seems like the restaurant is popular where outside guests also come to eat.
    Booking says breakfast "included" however it's only to the value of 150. Breakfast options are between around 70-150 so for the most part it should cover the meal. however if you get extras or drinks you may go over. Breakfast was great so it wasn't really as an issue but more off an FYI. Shuttle a bit on the expensive side 650 one way or 1150 return.
