Top 5-Star Hotels in Kempton Park

Stayed one night at the end of a long day on the road and thought this was the perfect antidote before flying home. The location of the hotel is quite wonderful, just over the road from the terminal and just exudes calm - much appreciated after some chaotic days. The warm and friendly welcome from Kea checking me in really set the scene for a marvellous stay. My room was wonderfully luxurious and gave me ample opportunity to recover from my travels. The swimming pool on the 8th floor is surprisingly compact, with the lifts opening directly onto the poolside, but it is perfectly fine for a morning dip. It also offers a splendid view out over the terminal and the runways beyond. The pool was not in the best condition (e.g. one of the steps on the ladder into the pool was broken) but I assume this will be addressed by the 3 week long closure and refurbishment of the 8th floor (5 July-23 July 2023). The food on offer at the hotel is quite superb. The dishes I tried from the evening dining menu, room service menu and breakfast menu were all quite superb. The French toast served up for breakfast was particularly delicious. Overall, I thought this hotel was excellent and I would happily stay here again on my next visit to South Africa.

The breakfast is very good, suitable for children, location close to the airport, parking lot. Just the day, Cai Guoqing and his children also lived in this hotel.

Save your money. Seriously. I travel a lot and I can say that this is by far the worst experience I’ve ever had at a hotel. The hotel is nice. But it’s the staff that really had me wanting to pack my bags, and I was only to be there for one night. I don’t know if everything is a joke to the entire staff or what, but from the moment I got there I felt as if I wasn’t being taken seriously. I had an extremely long day traveling and was exhausted, and my bags were supposed to be delivered to my room shortly after check in. 20 minutes later I still did not have my bags and was getting hungrier by the minute. I went down to the lobby to see about some food and was met by my bags still in the lobby which had been brought back down. If I waited for so long how does that make sense? Am I supposed to stay hostage in my room until they decide to get to me? Strike one. Once that was finally sorted out, I went for dinner at the restaurant downstairs. I was there with three other people who promptly decided they wanted to go to the buffet, I asked for a menu and then asked if one of the items on the menu could be modified to which the server told me she would check. In the meantime, however I ordered two drinks to which members of my table also order drinks as well. They got up to go to the buffet. The server brought their drinks out while they were up at the buffet, while I was left waiting for 15+ minutes for the server to come back to inform me if I could order the item I wanted or not, which she never did. Someone in my party who noticed how growingly irritated I was getting had to go up and personally place my order with the chef. The server saw this and quickly ran to get the drinks that I had been waiting so long already for. After the meal, while settling the bill, the woman who was there literally cut me off in the middle of speaking to speak to a man who had walked up and just interrupted our conversation. Rude on both parts. Afterwards I walked up to my room and there was a random ironing board and iron propped up against my door? This place is really strange. And then, on top of all of that to make matters worse, I get to my room to take a shower and it doesn’t even drain. I had to get out of the shower and call the front desk. When I called the front desk they basically laughed off the fact that I requested a female employee to come due to the fact that I was in my towel and was uncomfortable with a man coming up to my room at such a late hour (if you have daughters or women you are traveling with keep this in mind). It took over 20 minutes for this problem to get fixed, which it wasn’t truly fixed because he just removed the drain cover and said to shower not take a bath. Oh and he used a PLUNGER in the bathtub and would’ve left it completely unsanitary for me to use if no one spoke up about how disgusting that was. Thank god I called my mother to the room to be here with me while he was here because she’s the one who saw it and pointed it out.

The hotel is very close to the airport, very convenient and safe. It is also very convenient to eat nearby. Especially convenient, the hotel also has a pick-up service, about five or six minutes to the airport.

I am a youth leader taking a group to Port Elizabeth. Because of the way our flights worked out we had to spend the night in Johannesburg. I emailed 4 different hotels and Premiere Hotel was the only one to get back to me in a timely fashion. They were extremely helpful and responsive. Mercy was great to work with. They also arraigned transportation for all 34 of us from the airport to the hotel and once at the hotel we all ate in their restaurant and the food was wonderful. Pete, the restaurant manager, was extremely helpful. Overall Premiere hotel took what was the most stressful part of our trip and executed it wonderfully. The rooms were spacious and well appointed. The overall amenities of the hotel were absolutely wonderful. The management of this hotel should be proud. 10/10 I cannot recommend them enough.

The hotel is great for a one night stopover on arrival in JNB or departing from JNB. Free shuttlebus to the hotel / airport every 30 minutes. 10 minute journey. We arrived early and room wasn’t ready. So, having checked in, staff looked after the luggage and we went for a drink and sat in the garden for 45 minutes. Staff came to tell us room was ready and took us and the luggage to the room. Standard room is not huge but adequate for a one night stop. Room has the usual expected facilities; tea / coffee and tv. Not a lot of storage space but ok for a short stay. Window opens if you want fresh air instead of aircon. Décor around the hotel is very interesting, unusual and a little quirky. Definitely worth having a look around! Restaurant is open all day with a good choice on the menu at very reasonable prices. Meal in the evening was very good. Two fantastic guys work on the bar, Irvin and Oscar, are very friendly and helpful and regularly check that everything is ok and if you need more drinks. No need to walk from the garden to the bar. There is an outdoor pool and a gym in the basement. Good range of food for the buffet breakfast. Check out was quick and efficient but as a Marriott Bonvoy member, it was express service for me. Would certainly use this property again if I needed an airport stopover. NOTE! Do not confuse this hotel with the Protea Transit Hotel which is in the airport complex.

My husband and I had an excellent overnight stay here on our way to Nelspruit the next morning. The shuttle was prompt, the breakfast convenient. I seem to remember only beer in the honour bar that night? However, our quarters were very suitable and put us in the mood for Kruger Park the following day! We have fond memories and photos of this lodging! AS I am meeting a friend in the RSA next week I booked us two rooms here overnight before heading out once again to Nelspruit. If my return flight had not left from Joburg at a good hour I would stay again before my flight home. We must have come in after the supper hour; I may miss again this trip, unfortunately.

Excellent location – literally minutes away from the OR Tambo airport. There is a shuttle but it is difficult to locate it. Maybe some signage would help? Once we located it we were however in the hotel in about 5 minutes. The shuttle is quite efficient. The rooms are good sized but the bathrooms are small in comparison. The room was cleaned regularly. The coffee / tea amenities were good. The room I stayed in was however dated, needs updating of the rooms. The heater in my room did not work. I just hope it works during winter. On meals, Breakfast had a good spread on the buffet, very nice. It is the best meal of the day. Lunch and Dinner was also quite good though not as good in variety unless you use the ala carte menu. I did not use the restaurants much outside the meal times or the bar so I am not able to rate these for now. The 3 stars are largely due to the staff. Staff are generally slow, have a poor attitude and look like they have been forced to work. This was especially at the reception and in the dining. You really need friendlier staff at the reception! A good number of times staff paid more attention to speaking with their colleagues than serving guests. I would be in the middle of something with a staff member but another staff member comes to them speaking in their language and you have to wait. It happened to me too often for comfort. Never seen this anywhere else I’ve travelled. A few times they were also speaking across the room. We however met some lovely staff – a gentleman called Trust and a mature lady who was doing our eggs at breakfast, I forgot her name. Do not expect too much but it is an excellent location if having an early flight.
