ACCOMMODATION IN ROBIN HILLS

Every now and then
one discovers a true gem...

A guest house in the quiet and upmarket suburb of Robin Hills, Johannesburg, is such a gem - where guests are regarded as precious.

ABOUT US

After years of extensive travel and learning about the hospitality industry, the owners and hosts, Pieter van Zyl and Irma Meyer, custom-built a guest house that caters for all the needs of the discerning business or leisure traveller.

At 22 Carats one can expect traditional hospitality, attention to detail, and hosts who provide exceptional personal service.

The décor and colour scheme of 22 Carats are themed around gem stones and you will find a ruby, tanzanite, amethyst, amber, aquamarine and turquoise room, all reflecting the richness of the colours of these stones. The passion and enthusiasm with which this project was undertaken are evident in the outcome and the guest house is truly a gem.

· an en-suite bathroom
