With Johannesburg being the largest city in South Africa, there are plenty of exciting things awaiting those who choose to visit, irrespective of when in the year you choose to come. Visitors will also find there's no shortage of luxury accommodation, and for those seeking something slightly more modest, there's plenty of lodge accommodation as well. Located in the provincial capital of Gauteng, Johannesburg has a vibrant economy, and it's also one of the few large metropolitan areas in the world which isn't situated in close proximity to a large body of water.

In the past, Johannesburg was never seen as being a top tourist destination, although it's always been the main gateway to South Africa. Also, because Johannesburg has always been considered to be the country's financial and business capital, luxury accommodation is plentiful, and in more recent times, lodge accommodation has also taken off. One of Johannesburg's biggest advantages is that there are connecting flights to all other popular destinations, including Cape Town, Durban, Kruger National, and etc. Also, just 25km's north of the city you'll find "The Cradle of Humankind" which is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Whether you're traveling independently or whether you're traveling in a group, if it's luxury accommodation you're after, then the South View Lodge is certainly worth considering. Most guests tend to describe the place as being lodge accommodation in a league of its own. Also, with the Lodge being only 10 minutes from the city, it's a great choice for business travelers and adventure seekers alike.
Visitors to SouthView Lodge can enjoy a full-sized snooker table, a miniature gymnasium, and of course, a swimming pool. There are also lounges and a cocktail bar, together with several other amenities. The Lodge can accommodate up to 35 sharing guests. Rooms at the lodge include the Palatial Diamond suite, 10 standard sharing rooms, or self-catering rooms, and the luxury accommodation units.
No luxury accommodation would be complete without the inclusion of a WIFI hotspot, 24-hour complimentary herbal tea, coffee, milo and hot chocolate station. Mini bar fridges with irons and ironing boards in each room, hairdryers and even heaters and fans are all standard in each room and are refreshed daily by onsite staff.
Additional services offered at the Lodge that you may not find at other luxury accommodation resorts include same-day laundry service for guests, transportation, restaurant facilities, honesty bar, conferencing, catering for private functions as well as themed events. For those large groups the options for exclusive use of this luxury accommodation lodge are available upon request.
There are advertised specials for the SouthView Lodge if you are looking to book a luxury accommodation unit for a specific purpose such as a bachelorette party or just a girl's night out. With 3 different packages to choose from, be sure to talk to a representative at the Lodge and find out packages that interest you most.
Just a short distance away from SouthView Lodge you'll find SAB World of Beer, Bells Inn Driving Range, and of course, the Gold Reef City Theme Park. All things considered, if you're traveling to or through Johannesburg, and luxury accommodation is what you want, this Lodge takes a lot to beat.
