We wish to thank Donovan and Jackie for their warm welcome and excellent hospitality. The service was excellent. Next time, my family and I are sure to book at The Crytal Duvet guesthouse and we highly recommend same to others also. We had a lovely time there!

I have been to Johannesburg 2 times and both the times i have preferred to stay at Crystal Duvet. The accomodation is good and satisfies all your requirements including breakfast. The rooms were kept ready on the moment of our arrival and the accomodation is tastefully decorated.

I would highly recommend the Crystal Duvet. The staff are very helpful and the place itself is lovely. The pool area is great, it is very private and peacefull. We stayed in the room with 2 double beds and sharing with kids can be messy, however the cleaners did an excellent job everyday, I was very impressed. Catherine

We've been here for just one night. We had a little trouble to find this beautiful bed & breakfast because our navi didn't got the adress. Donovan, the owner made our stay very comfortable. Beautiful rooms, great pool and fabulous breakfast make the deal go round. Thanks for hospitality.

Our 6-night stay (family of 4) was great; we would stay there again. Offered everything we needed and more. The staff were super friendly/helpful and did whatever they could to ensure we had a very pleasant stay. Aside from the low water pressure in the bath/shower combo (which I understand will soon be renovated), I would consider this to be... More

Contact prior to arrival was prompt & smooth. From the moment we arrived I loved this accommodation. Jacqui was so welcoming. After allowing us to check in a little early when we arrived (rather than the mandatory 2pm) was so much more than expected & very appreciated after such a long journey from the UK. The swimming pool & garden... More

My wife and I spent 3days here before traveling around SA. Jackie was very helpful, great location for sightseeing, clean and very secure. We can definitely recommend it for mature couple and others for vacation or business

Silent place with birds and all kind of trees was just we supposed. The service was very good and the stuff kind and helpful. The price was reasonable. For us, who wanted to keep a pause after flying from Europa, this hotel was a dream. We were three men (65 years old).
