Special thanks to Benjamin, who was just amazing! The view from our room was spectacular. We could even see Southern Masked Weavers feeding their babies in the hanging nest! The room was very comfortable and cosy with a heated bed! The only minus was some noise we had in the afternoon and evening from the restaurant just above our room. At the same time, we loved the restaurant - very convenient, tasty food, amazing staff, and the same spectacular views we had from our room! We will definitely come back! read less

The venue is beautiful and all staff and security (especially at the parking area) were extremely friendly and very helpful. Thank you team Pablo house! 😞 - The wooden floors inside the double rooms are beautiful, but the creaky floor boards made it hard to move around without making a lot of noise. We could hear our neighbours and I'm very sure they could hear us. read less

We were recovering from jet lag and doing some sightseeing in Joburg. The staff is very warm and welcoming, our room was exceptionally comfortable with a beautiful view of the koppies, and the food at the restaurant was delicious. Cocktails were great, and I felt pampered as I spent some time hanging out at the pool when the bartender came all the way down to the pool to ensure my drink wasn't empty. read less

The room was comfortable and well appointed with a lot of thoughtful touches. The breakfast was excellent, though the kitchen was a bit slow. I thought I would end up trying a number of restaurants around the city, but once I had dinner at Pablo House, I didn't want to go anywhere else. I particularly enjoyed the hospitality of Leigh and the problem solving of Winston. The airport transfers made everything smooth. read less
