We stayed one night (2 rooms) on our way from OR Tambo (approx. 15 min drive) to Timbavati and enjoyed a very friendly family atmosphere, good rooms & beds (missing the airco) and decent breakfast. A bit dated but with eye for detail and very clean. Free wifi and safe on site parking. The area is residential and has little to offer. The airport is far enough away to not be bothered by the noise yet close enough to make it a good overnight stay pre-or post flight. We can recommend !

We only stayed overnight to catch a morning flight, but it was the right choice. Pick up and drop off service was ideal with a friendly, amicable driver. We had a late dinner, especially prepared for us and served with warmth and friendliness. Breakfast was cooked to order and the hostess didn't seem to be able to do enough to please us, even to what music was played while we ate.
Our room was comfortable with a hot shower. Wifi was good and satisfactory. This was an ideal place to stay near the airport if your purpose is a simple, comfortable overnight.

We liked this clean, comforable, cosy little guesthouse. True, it is not in a fantastic location - Kempton Park is a residential suburb far from everything except the airport, but we received a very warm welcome and our room was delightful. Service was excellent - the owners went out of their way to make sure we were as comfortable as possible. Excellent airport transfers with its close proximity to O R Tambo airport, so great option for catching a flight, but probably not to see the city. There are other hotels closer to the airport but they are more expensive and noisy because of planes.
We will return next time we're in Joburg!

The Sunflowers Guesthouse is an owner occupied B&B near the OR Tambo airport in Johannesburg. Pam Foster has been very helpful to us. For me, it was communicating with Thomas, the driver who dropped us at the airport. With the communication, he found the camera I had left in the car. Pam has already gotten the memory card to me, when she sent it to me from England. Later, when her daughter comes to the USA the camera will be sent to me as well. A big big thank you!

Pam Foster is the hostess with the mostest! I stayed only three nights, but she was wonderfully accommodating, from getting me an early dinner when I was famished, to providing a delicious hot breakfast (and cereal, too, if you prefer) each morning ... AND arranging for a day tour for only me to see whatever I wanted to see. She has seven units (two singles with shared bathroom, four doubles with bathrooms en suite and a family-sized room with a queen and a single and an en suite bathroom. Dinner can be arranged if you want. You can arrange for airport transport also. Her staff are just great, too. It's near Tambo Airport, but I never heard a flight. To be fair, it's not a shining star, but it's a great 3-star kind of place at a very reasonable price.

We were doing a safari in South Africa, and due to our late arrival at Tambo, needed a place to stay before catching our early morning flight to the game park. We were very fortunate to find Sunflowers Guesthouse. We had been in a similar situation before and had stayed at a local hotel. The problem with hotels is that those near the airport are outrageously overpriced, and the ones that are affordable require you to spend a considerable amount of time getting to them and getting back to the airport, which is not something most people want to do when they are getting ready to go on a safari.

We were initially attacted to Sunflowlers Guesthouse because it was close to the airport, reasonably priced and the owners provided transportation for a small additional charge. We could not have been more satisfied with our decision. The owner was waiting for us at the airport, and served us tea and the most delicious cookies when we arrived at the gueshouse after a very short drive. For a small charge, we had dinner at the guesthouse with the owners. The food was very good, and we enjoyed talking with the owners. There is free wifi in the Guesthouse, so before we retired for the night we were able to check our email oin our laptops, which is something that is important to us when we travel. Because our flight out the next morning was early, and we wanted to maximize our sleep time, the owner made us a breakfast basket to take with us to the airport, which worked out perfectly for us. The next time we go on a safari in South Africa and need to overnight near Tambo Airport, we will definitely stay here again.

The main reason I did not give it an excellent rating is that people expect luxery accomodations at a place that is rated excellent. The room was clean and comfortable, with excellent service, making it a great value for the money. It is difficult to rate the location because it is excellent if you just want to be close to the airport nd sleep there, but it is not excellent if you want to go investigating the city because you are not within walking distance of the downtown.

If you are looking for a place to spend a restful night before traveling on from The Tambo Airport, the Sunflowers Guesthouse is definitely the place to stay.

I stayed overnight at this cosy guesthouse. I arrived late into OR Tambo Airport and I needed somewhere close to the airport to spend the night as I had an early flight out of J'burg the next morning. The owners arranged for a driver, Thomas, to pick me up at the airport and he collected me promptly the next morning. The pick-up service was reliable and efficient and was worth the extra charge. Despite the late hour, Malcolm and his staff were waiting to greet me and they were friendly and welcoming. The room was very clean and comfortable and I had a take-away breakfast which was nice. I would use the guesthouse again in such circumstances.

Great place to stay for a night prior to a flight out. Personalable service, very welcoming, comfy bed and clean rooms. Pam made the extra effort to prepare breakfast with our dietary requirements in mind. Thanks for the lovely stay.

We have used Sunflowers several times now. It is very affordable, clean, and comfy. The owners are sweet and helpful. They provide a lovely breakfast, have plenty of snacks available for purchase, keep the furnishings up-to-date, and even provide extras such as toiletries and tea fixings in the room. It is minutes away from the airport, shopping malls, restaurants, a church, and main highways. We recommend it to all our visitors needing a place to stay en route to or from the airport.
