We did not have a reservation at O.R.Tambo Airport but after walking into the InterContinental and ... $400 USD later ... we decided on the Garden Court for 1/4 the price. For starters GREAT shuttle from the Airport to the Hotel every 30 minutes. Efficient, clean, fast ... a great first impression. The front desk was likewise very helpful and... More

Maybe due to reviews or comments by guests - who knows, but the hotel has been freshened up with decoration, though some car pets still need replacing - stairs particularly, but these impro0vements have improved the hotel to reinforce my decision to keep staying there. The staff are very helpful and cheerful bearing in mind they operate an airport hotel... More

Garden Court is located an easy 5 minutes from the International airport, in a relatively quiet area, despite the traffic from both air and road. The Hotel,is very reasonable and newly decorated. Meals both in the restaurant and Irish bar/pub are good and varied. Rooms are quite well appointed and the showers are great, hot water not a problem. The... More

When arriving from a long trip from the USA via London to Johannesburg, we were advised to stay overnight at a hotel in Johannesburg before catching our next flight to Richard's Bay to begin our week long safari. We booked into the Garden Court as it was off the airport premises and we had read good reviews on trip advisor.... More

A comfortable and quiet hotel in which to stay after a long flight. Only about a 10 minute drive on a shuttle bus from the airport, the rooms are spotless, staff friendly and helpful and the breakfast is plentiful. Everything about the hotel is above average, except for poor wifi. The meals in the Irish restaurant are good and reasonably... More
