The Bannister Hotel sits in the heart of Braamfontein, Johannesburg’s most vibrant inner-city district. Launched in 2013, the Bannister Hotel is a relaxed, contemporary and affordable place to stay that puts you within walking distance of the neighbourhood’s cafes, galleries, rooftop bars and weekend markets.
Comfortable modern rooms, an on-site restaurant and bar, and a genuinely central location make it a favourite with independent travellers, creatives and business visitors alike. Constitution Hill, the Wits Art Museum and the University of the Witwatersrand are all a short stroll away, and the Nelson Mandela Bridge links you straight into the city.
Why stay at the Bannister Hotel
Braamfontein is walkable, buzzing and well connected, and the Bannister Hotel is right in the middle of it. Weekend visitors love being able to step out to First Thursdays, the Neighbourgoods Market and a dense cluster of restaurants without needing a car.
It is also an ideal, affordable base for anyone in town for the 702 Walk the Talk and exploring inner-city Johannesburg on foot.
What to expect
Expect friendly service, clean modern rooms and a lively ground-floor bar and restaurant. Book ahead over event weekends, and ask reception for tips on the best galleries and eateries within walking distance.
