Road Lodge Carnival City Hotel Review
Location: Conveniently located near Carnival City entertainment complex in Johannesburg, South Africa.
Room: The rooms at Road Lodge Carnival City are on the smaller side, but well-laid out to accommodate a family of 3 comfortably. Despite the compact space, everything you need is right at hand. The beds were clean and comfortable.
Cleanliness: This property gets a 5-star rating for cleanliness. The hotel staff clearly takes pride in keeping all public areas and rooms spotlessly clean. Our room was thoroughly cleaned each day with fresh towels provided.
Amenities: In-room amenities were basic but sufficient. Free wifi access allowed us to stay connected. The daily refreshment of ice from the vending machine in the hallway was a nice touch.
Breakfast: While we did not partake in any meals here, breakfast is buffet and by the standard of most hotels, was ample and well-prepared.
Service: Front desk and housekeeping staff were polite, helpful and attentive to any needs during our stay. Check-in and check-out were smooth and efficient.
Value: For the affordable room rate at Road Lodge Carnival City, we felt it offered excellent value. The proximity to entertainment and clean, comfortable accommodations made it a hassle-free base despite the modest size.
Overall: While the rooms are on the small side, this hotel gets high marks for cleanliness, location and service. It provides clean, comfortable lodging for an affordable rate that is perfect for a family trip to Carnival City. I would definitely stay here again.
Environment: Very good 👍 The hotel is located in the center of Chinatown in Johannesburg, South Africa. It is only about 7.5 kilometers from the airport to the hotel. The hotel can arrange a car to pick up the airport in advance. It is convenient and safe to travel. There are many Chinese restaurants around, such as Diaoyu Island, Shunde Restaurant, Waguan Shijia, Mong Kok Restaurant, Chongqing Hotpot, Northeast Dumplings, etc. Wanfulai Supermarket has a full range of daily necessities, even tea brands are available. A Chinatown basically meets your life needs.
I enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The room is clean, the bathroom was private with a real door. The breakfast was very good. It was in a nice area, I felt very safe walking around. And the staff was very nice and very helpful.

👍🏽10 minute drive from OR Tambo Airport.
Reception and check in was smooth
🙄 No elevator in hotel. I had to carry my 2 x23kg suitcases up a flight of stairs. No porter service or any staff offered to assist me
🙄 Room is small but ok for staying over night for catching an early morning flight.
🙄 Air-conditioning is very noisy I couldn't sleep
🙄Walls are not sound proof....
🙄Plugs are all situated across on the small table
🙄 When using the kettle the phone could not charge
🙄 No bottled water - at more than RMB400 per night I expected to at least have that
🙄 Hotel operates on an online ordering system, I tried to order room service but when I couldn't ,I sent the contact person a msg via the system - 24hrs later - no response.
The environment is still very good, if you don't include breakfast abroad, you need to buy another. The sunrise in the early morning, the beauty of the African savannah is really beautiful, hahaha, go next time.
My stay at the lodge was very pleasant. After many hours of flying, the amenities are sufficient to relax and have a rest before connecting flights or before your next move. Staff at reception were lovely, friendly and helpful. Andrew who is part of staff in charge of pick-up and drop-off, waited quite a while for me the collect baggage and was extremely patient and understanding. I’d highly recommend staying there.
The hotel is suitable for staying at night. Its obvious advantage is the proximity to the airport. Also the hotel offers free airport transfer. There is some dirty and bleaching walls in the room and the quality of ground cover. However, bed linen is clean. The surroundings are unfavourable in the district, the hotel itself is safe. If you are not very rude, the hotel will be quite suitable, but for more than 1 day would not be recommended.
