I had a good stay at Villa Simonne. The decor and unique ambiance made it feel like a home rather than a typical hotel, filled with charming details and a beautiful garden.

The room was aesthetically pleasing and well-designed, showcasing beautiful details. However, the carpet was not up to the standard I expected. The air conditioning was on, creating a warm welcome, but overall, it fell short of a boutique hotel experience.

I had a unique stay at Villa Simonne, where the charming eccentricity of the hotel and the lovely staff stood out. While my room (the Olympia suite) was spacious and had lovely decor, the tiny bathroom left a bit to be desired. The breakfast was decent but lacked excellent coffee, though the nearby shopping center offered some great alternatives.
Rooms
6.0
I stayed in the Olympia suite, which was spacious and beautifully decorated, but the bathroom was quite small. I had to sidle in sideways to access the toilet, which was a little inconvenient. Each room seems to have its own vibe, so communicating my needs ahead might have helped.
Service

The staff were generally wonderful and quite accommodating (they even arranged some flowers for our honeymoon!). However, I did notice that one waitress was a bit distracted by her phone, which led to some mix-ups with our order. Most of the team, though, was friendly and willing to assist.

The location was excellent, just a short seven-minute walk to the shopping center. It felt safe and was easy to navigate, which made getting around Johannesburg convenient. The grounds were well-maintained and provided a pleasant atmosphere.
Dining

Breakfast included four options, and while I enjoyed the Eggs Benedict on one morning, the quality varied slightly on my second attempt. Dinner overall wasn't as impressive as I had hoped (the menu lacked variety), though the Mediterranean cuisine offered by the chef was enjoyable on another occasion.
Facilities

The pool area and Finnish sauna were lovely additions to my stay, but I did find some cleanliness issues that could be improved. The venue's charm was present, yet some areas need a good thorough spring cleaning to elevate the experience further.
