Clico Boutique Hotel, Johannesburg

We only stayed for one night as we had a safari booked but the hotel and room was great. The staff were really helpful and organised an early breakfast for our departure (which was really good). The information on taking a tour of Johannesburg was excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed our whistle stop stay in Johannesburg.

Dinner ended a little too early for us in the restaurant - we would have loved to dine in the restaurant....

Small, safe and comfortable in good location.

The stay was really great especially their restaurant facilities. Breakfast was incredible and we cant wait to be back to try out their restaurant for lunch and dinner. The rooms were comfortable and really incredible value for money. The staff were amazing and exceptionally friendly. Loved our Stay

It is a home away from home 2 steps away from city life

It is an informal, clean and homy place with the most friendly and attentive staff I ve met in years of traveling!

Staff were excellent, friendly and knowledgeable. Always willing to help. Location was prime. Aircon was a little undersized for the bedroom.

Mosquitos. The first night we thought we would sleep with the outside door open. Biug mistake. The buggers almost carried us away. The staff did however address the problem first thing the next morning, and after that we slept well every night

A perfect stay in beautiful Rosebank. My preferred accommodation when visiting Johannesburg. Highly recommended!

The room service was excellent. The room location was away from the reception and restaurant as I requested.

Hosted my mom’s 80th birthday lunch. It was the best experience all their staff is friendly and helpful. Del was exceptional, nothing seemed too much for her. Trevor who oversaw the waiters absolutely amazing. Receptionists, waiters, guards were all amazing

Such a warm welcome to this special place. Couldn't fault our stay. Every member of staff was so friendly and diligent. The food was exceptional and we would thoroughly recommend the tasting menu which was quite extraordinary. Wouldn't stay anywhere else.

The property is lovely and clean, and the rooms were spacious and light. Staff were very friendly and attentive. The breakfast includes a cold buffet and hot menu. We also ate at the restaurant for dinner and had the tasting menu- both delicious! We only stayed one night so can’t comment too much on the location, but we felt secure.

Nothing!

The food is 5-star all day! Even the was amazingly presented.

Air-con only blew cold air and it was a bit chilly

Amazing staff, especially the guard Hendrik. Clean and safe accommodation, nice breakfast and spacious room. There are some nice bars and restaurants in the area as well.

Beautiful, serene and clean. Excellent breakfast. Wonderful and friendly staff.

Convenience.

None.

The restaurant breakfast buffet is excellent. The dinner menu is pretentious. Order a steak, and this is all that comes on the plate. No sides and none available to order.

Very comfortable hotel, extremely helpful staff, and excellent location.

I liked everything!

Great location and the place really beautiful space, very lovely hotel and the staffwas amazing... i enjoyed my stay.

Smart TV ONLY MISSING

the location is perfect, close to the mall and lots of restaurants and galleries. the staff is very kind and supportive. the hotel is charming and very comfy. the food was delicious. there is free drinking water and coffee, and the room had a lovely balcony.

All staff were welcoming and friendly. The room was spacious, clean and the bed was so comfortable. Walking distance to Rosebank mall and restaurants/cafes. Good selection for breakfast.

Rooms were clean, comfortable, and spacious. We enjoyed dining in the hotel restaurant. For breakfast, they offer hot dishes made-to-order as well as a cold buffet (pastries, fruit, cold cuts). The staff was very warm and welcoming. They had a 24h security guard, and we felt very safe. The security guard was very attentive and seemed to remember who we were during our stay. The hotel was a 5 min walk to Rosebank Mall. We felt comfortable walking there during the day. It was a quick Uber ride back at night.

Staff in the hotel and especially the security guard was exceptionally thoughtful, friendly and helpful. Check in was also very easy.

The breakfast was disappointing. The 1 bathroom was very small, and the heater was switched on even though we kept switching it off, housekeeping always turned it on.

Lovely compound in Rosebank. Exceedingly friendly staff. Safe and comfortable area and neighborhood. Accommodating and pleasant overall.

This was our third stay at Clico, and it has truly become our home away from home in Johannesburg. The location is ideal, and the rooms offer great comfort. The staff consistently go above and beyond, always warm and helpful, ensuring our stay is effortlessly enjoyable.

I do feel the windows and balcony doors could use a little TLC, as they are starting to show their age. While the building's historic charm is undeniable, some updates to these fittings would enhance the overall experience. I was also a bit underwhelmed with breakfast this time, as it didn’t quite meet the usual standard. I understand the chef is experimenting with new offerings, but the absence of sausages was noticeable, and the shakshuka was quite different from the one I enjoyed a few months ago. Lastly, it might be worth considering citronella candles or another solution to address the flies during breakfast service.

Very helpful staff. Good breakfast. Nice location. Room overlooks a well curated garden with pool. Comfortable bed. Coffee and tea facilities with complimentary water.

The stairs - but help was always offered to carry luggage. I'd suggest queries over booking.com be treated more promptly.

Charming small hotel in safe location. The staff were very kind and it was convenient to have a restaurant within the hotel.

The rooms are a bit more dated than they look in the pictures but overall it still felt clean and comfortable

A lovely, clean, spacious, and comfortable room. It is in the perfect location and the staff are very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious!

I was booked for breakfast but couldnt have it as my flight was too early. I asked for a takaway and was informed that while they don't usually do it, it will be done for me. That was special, thank you. I enjolyed it.

Nothing

It is really worth staying in Clico with very friendly staff and big and clean room. Delicious breakfast with a very big variety!

Friendliness if Adele and lindie and thr Maitre D

The bodem in the room (3) was chipped and the mesh worn. Definitely needs to be turfed out and a new one purchased.

Lovely little hotel in a nice area of Johannesburg. Staff were very friendly and the breakfast was terrific. Would happily stay here again.

Really friendly place, well located and good food

Old plumbing meant lots of noises in the bedroom

The cold breakfast that was included was excellent

Nothing to complain about

Awesome Boutique Hotel - delicious food in the restaurant (not regular hotel food - gourmet food). Big comfortable hotel rooms, clean, nice location. Been staying at the hotel 3 times.

We liked everything: the elegant and understated decor, the artworks around the hotel, the comfortable room with all its extras such as body lotion, tissues, tea, coffee and water, the terrace outside our room where we could sit outside in the sunshine, the superb food at the restaurant designed around tapas dishes which were beautifully cooked and presented, the stone fired pizza, the outstanding staff who were all so professional, cheerful and friendly and whose personal service made us feel special. It’s nothing like those big, impersonal, bland hotels. We enjoyed our stay so much, we didn’t want to leave.

A little more focus on maintenance would make this hotel perfect.

Exemplary service. Comfortable and relaxing stay. Quiet location.

Nothing.

They were so accommodating and the restaurant downstairs was really yummy. It was nice to have a nice restaurant on-site like that. Walk to Rosebank Mall was quick and generally safe.

The first room we were put in was downstairs next to reception, and we heard everything going on at the entrance/reception. However, they were very kind to move us upstairs at the earliest possible opportunity, and the room and balcony (which was shared, btw, but that didn't bother us at all) were lovely. Really great value for the price.

This was our second visit to Clico Boutique Hotel, having first stayed here in 2021, and we are eagerly anticipating our return later this year. The hotel’s location is superb, offering both safety and security, which provided us with peace of mind throughout our stay. One of the most remarkable aspects of Clico Boutique Hotel is the exceptional staff. They go above and beyond to ensure every guest feels comfortable and well taken care of. Their dedication and warmth create a welcoming atmosphere that truly enhances the overall experience. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with friendly smiles and outstanding service that made us feel right at home. Breakfast at Clico is always a highlight of our stay. The chef consistently updates the menu, ensuring that it remains fresh and seasonal, and the variety and quality of the dishes are exceptional. Whether we were enjoying a hearty breakfast or a lighter, more delicate option, every meal was a delightful culinary experience. The rooms at Clico Boutique Hotel are spacious and thoughtfully designed. Each room is well-stocked with all the essentials and more, ensuring we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The attention to detail in the room amenities, combined with the generous space, made our stay both convenient and luxurious. Overall, Clico Boutique Hotel continues to exceed our expectations with its wonderful location, outstanding staff, delicious breakfast offerings, and comfortable, well-equipped rooms. We look forward to our upcoming visit and highly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a memorable and enjoyable stay.

The hotel was the best choice during my vacation in South Africa. The complex is beautiful, the rooms are nicely furnished with view of the garden and pool. The food in the restaurant was excellent and the breakfast was lovely too. In addition, the staff was particularly nice and attentive. I should have stayed longer.

Seriously nothing I disliked.

The hotel is always my first choice; friendly staff a great security guard outside making sure I get to my car or Uber safely. Rooms are comfortable and beautiful. Breakfast is always spectacular.

Nothing at all.

Super friendly and helpful staff. Great rooms, common spaces, terrance and pool garden. We were so sorry to miss the receptionist on our way out, because she probably prepared coffees to go for us and we were in such a hurry... we apologize. The restaurant is AMAZING (soups are delicious!!) and breakfast was outstanding! Thank you for a great stay!

Staff were great, fantastic restaurant and great location

Better heating

Clico Boutique hotel is in a safe area of Jo'burgh. It has private off street parking and security on the gate. The hotel is small but feels very homely. The rooms are large, with very comfortable beds and pillows. AC is good quality. Tea / Coffee and kettle also provided. The hotel restaurant had really good food - I would highly recommend the pizza made in the tradition wood fired oven. Breakfast was included and was also of a very high quality.

Nothing

The restaurant was amazing. We loved our dinner with friends and the breakfast was excellent. Having everything freshly made was such a treat. The restaurant was the highlight of our stay. Friendly staff.

The rooms could do with a bit of an update. The satellite connection in the room was not great.

The staff were excellent. Very friendly and helpful. They accommodated the few requests we had without fuss and made us feel at home. The restaurant was excellent.

Nothing at all, would gladly go back

Had a great two nights at the Hotel. Super central and was perfect for my meetings. The breakfast was just fantastic. It's a great place to stay for a few days in Joburg if you there for business.
