5th Avenue Gooseberry Guest House

Enjoyed our stay staff was very friendly and welcoming. Rooms are spacious and clean. Would most definitely stay there again when visiting Jhb. Breakfast was also very nice and tasty. Beautiful gardens

A Hideaway in Joburg. Anna, die rechte Hand der Chefin ist die gute Seele des Hauses. Ruhig gelegen und mit viel Liebe zum Detail eingerichtetes Guesthouse. Schöner Garten mit kleinem Pool. Sehr gutes Frühstück mit frischem Obstsalat und English Breakfast. Wir hätten uns eine Selfservice Bar gewünscht in der die Möglichkeit im Haus Getränke zu erwerben, da die nächste Einkaufsmöglichkeit zu fuß zu weit ist und es dort auch nicht üblich ist, zu Fuß zu gehen, obwohl es eine wohlhabende Gegend ist.

Clean place and friendly people made out stay pleasant. All requests made by us was accommodated with a pleasant disposition.

Wake up to birdsong in a peaceful and quiet retreat. The facility is clean and well maintained. the staff is friendly and highly competent under Anna's leadership. A larger fridge is recommended to cater for scorching summer days.

I enjoyed staying at Gooseberry Guest House. The place is beautiful, tasteful and neat. I enjoyed the ambience and the overall feel of it. My stay would have been even better, but for two things: I normally ask for a room with an own bathroom with a shower. I might have neglected to do so in my initial enquiry, so I am not sure. Be that as it may, my room had no shower, which was disappointing and inconvenient. Since I have no way of knowing for sure whether this was my fault or theirs, I have no choice but to leave the matter be. The other problem that I had was that I was in a room directly below a whole bunch of young ladies who were either having a party or a bridal shower or something similar. They were most inconsiderate and made a lot of noise, late into the night and from early on in the morning.- talking loudly, banging doors and generally causing a racket. This left me a bit disgruntled, although I suppose that Gooseberry cannot be held responsible for that. Other than these issues, my stay was fine.

Verry peaceful and safe erea to sleep. Friendly and helpful lady who can speak Afrikaans also. Great breakfast. However we from the Northern provinces are not drinking tap water so maybe a littre or 2 drinking water would be nice in the room, but all and all we Wil visit again
