#3 of 3 hotels in Houghton by Axel's take. Houghton is #8 of 10 places to stay in Johannesburg. The best hotels in Houghton, ranked · Where to stay in Johannesburg
Axel's take: 8.5/10
A characterful Houghton stay whose gardens and thoughtful staff are the main draw. an eclectic 4-star boutique guesthouse and events venue in Houghton, scored for what it is.
Villa Simonne is an eclectic 4-star boutique guesthouse in Houghton, with individually themed rooms rather than a standard hotel look. We'd pick it for personality, generous suite options and gardens made for lingering. Booking.com guests repeatedly praise the helpful staff and comfortable rooms, while recent Google reviews also highlight the setting and warm service. The outdoor pool, restaurant and distinctive lounges give you reasons to spend time on the property.
The trade-off is individuality rather than uniformity: room layouts and bathroom arrangements vary, so choose your exact category carefully. Food feedback is mostly positive, though breakfast draws occasional criticism. It also hosts weddings and functions; light sleepers should ask what's scheduled. We'd skip it if you want minimalist interiors, guaranteed quiet or step-free access throughout—Expedia lists no elevator.
