The vintage setup of the guest house was soothing and exquisite. The garden well maintained and beautiful. The location was excellent in that it was quite and peaceful yet close enough to places like the Brooklyn Mall for instance. The hosts were friendly, particularly the lady of the house. She arranged a new room for us when we were not happy with the bed in the room we were booked into. That's excellent customer service in my books.

This is a most unique, historical building with a remarkable interior. Most of all, I enjoyed the breakfast time: The breakfast itself is excellent (and served in style at one big table!), and it gave me the opportunity to talk to the hosts, the staff and the other guests which was very nice and interesting. My room was spacious (also very high) and comfortable. I was offered a laundry service free of charge, too.

Osborne House is conveniently located close to our family, the centre of Pretoria and various amenities. The rooms were comfortable and shower had good power. Breakfast each morning was also nice. The hosts were very friendly. Having the little sitting area with fridge and kettle was a nice touch.

Thank you for the unforgettable experience of staying in an authentic place of South Africa in a very safe environment with a beautiful garden and swimming pool, exceptional people who take care of Osborn House and tasty fresh continental breakfast. Few grocery stores nearby within 10 minutes walk and it was safe to go where alone due to many embassies based in this location.

Location is fantastic for parents with students at Tukkies. Close to all amenities. The room is beautiful in this old historic home and the garden is stunning, with the Ddition of an inviting pool, especially in a 38 degree Pretoria. Breakfast was delicious and a good start to everyday. The hosts Waynand and Jeanette are wonderful hosts and make you feel at home and comfortable, nothing is too much trouble.

Such amazing hosts. They were kind and hospitable and did everything they could to make my stay easy. The room was really large with a separate space to work and doors opening to the pool. Breakfasts were delicious and they even let me invite two guests to breakfast one morning! The area was safe and quiet - I went for morning runs in the neighborhood and felt perfectly safe as a woman on my own. It was like a home away from home and I would definitely go back.

This historical house is charming and well maintained, and our hosts were beyond wonderful. My mom had a bad fall (at another venue!), and they made her as comfortable as possible and checked in on her regularly when I was not around. Great location if you need to be near the university, and the suburb is beautiful and quiet. Breakfasts are yum! We were made to feel very welcome and really enjoyed our stay and interactions with our hosts. Will definitely be back!

Very friendly, intelligent and supportive hosts, full of humor and hospitality, who exceeded my expectations. You feel at home, all your requests are addressed very fast. The breakfast is very tasty. It was also a pleasure to meet other guests who made an enjoyable company. Very calm atmosphere, high quality Internet, greenness around, safe area and very close to Brooklyn Mall. Flexibility to come and go any time, with a home feeling.

Beautiful Victorian house - architecture but also lots of beautiful artefacts from the early 1900. Lovely garden. Quiet location. Beautiful and spacious rooms and bathrooms, in the same style as the house yet with modern facilities. Very nice hosts, very helpful and flexible. Good breakfast cooked for each guest.
