Soon to be a Road Lodge, the previous Town Lodge on Grayston Drive has been rebranded during the temporary lockdown closure, giving it a sense of place and bringing truly affordable, comfortable accommodation to price-conscious, yet discerning travelers to the area, according to the group.

City Lodge Hotel Group has a number of hotels in the region, and adding a Road Lodge to the mix brings the overall accommodation offering in line with almost all travel budget requirements.

The 213-room hotel is located in the business, leisure, retail, dining and entertainment destination of Sandton, in close proximity to Sandton City, Nelson Mandela Square, major corporate offices, highways and the Gautrain Sandton Station for easy access to OR Tambo International Airport.

Situated on Grayston Drive means the hotel is just outside of the hub of the Sandton CBD, making it a quiet oasis away from the hustle and bustle at the end of the day.

Rooms have double or twin beds with en suite bathroom with shower; television with selected DStv channels and radio stations; tea and coffee making facilities; and an electronic safe. Interleading family rooms are available and selected rooms are designed for the physically disabled. The hotel has a restaurant serving breakfast as well as limited lunch and dinner options, plus a sundowner bar allowing guests to enjoy a drink overlooking the swimming pool.

Road Lodge Sandton is essentially only a name change, and will still be offering the same spacious rooms and range of amenities that regulars to this hotel are used to but at a better rate. The special reopening rates are from R760 per room per night, single or double occupancy, for room only.

We have a number of fine properties in Johannesburg and are always conscious of which brands best appeal to guests in certain areas. Whether it’s a Courtyard Hotel ‘designed to impress’, a City Lodge Hotel offering ‘comfort in the little things’, Town Lodge where ‘a little bit extra can mean a lot’ or our ‘basically brilliant’ Road Lodge, we understand that travellers, whether on business or leisure, have different needs. By paying close attention to the changing needs of the market, we ensure our properties stay relevant and appealing.
