"The place is tranquil clean and peaceful"
When we got to Africa's Zoo lodge we were so happy. We as the grade 6s of Holy Rosary School Malamulele hardly slept because of the fun times we had there. We slept in the first three bedrooms where there were the meerkats, zebras and buffaloes. The swimming pool was fab not to mention the food. It was more than tasty. The accommodation, the welcoming arms and the facility. When it was time to leave people didn't wanna leave because they had to let go off their home away from home. That was the saddest part. To the owners of A.Z.L.B I'd like to say thanks for the fab accommodation you showed to us and to everyone who also wants a nice lodge you can always count on A.Z.L.B in Jan Smuts Avenue
What a wonderful forest oasis in Rosebank. There's a lot of love and creativity going into this place; attention to detail. It is clean, neat and tidy and has a lot of plants and trees making it colorful and irie. And I must mention the nice pool / bar / braai/ dining area. The hosts and staff; Al danto, Jonathan, Mischa and Greg are warm and welcoming and go out of their way to help you. It has a pleasant atmosphere. Be careful scratching the parrot "Lucky Boy's" head and give some love to friendly "Whytie"; the 3 legged black cat. I highly recommend this lodge / backpackers. ***** ;)
Absolutely beautiful space for overnight situations or an actual lil vacation away from it all. Super affordable rooms with toilets and showers well maintained. The swimming pool area has to reclining couches and the greenery of the place makes it so nice and cool. Beautiful photo background opportunities. The staff is nice and friendly and absolutely helpful. The decor is absolutely stunning. I would go back.

It's a very cool, clean and safe place for travellers or even local people who want to spend some time out of their home. Well managed and even offers free wi-fi, gym swimming pool and nice sitting areas. The rooms are clean, well kept and affordable. Will recommend it to anyone.
Women alone parked outside unsafe. Called the owner Tim who dropped the phone in my ear. Francois who was drunk on arrival and phone is off. Had to sleep in my car alone outside. My luggage is inside!!! Pathetic!!! Disgusted!!!
Fabulouse time way back 1996 2 weeks in Joburg did Kwa-Zulu-Natal came back did Zambia & Zambezi river came back did Kruger Park 1.500 miles no Sat Nav,no iPhone no translation App
The dorm room was ok. Some of the general utilities like utensils and towel could have been cleaner. But with all things considered, good value for money plus helpful staff.
Dirty corrupt only cash payments. Bad management. Liars. No lease agreements? Must be investigated by sars.

What a great facility! I could hardly believe I was in a backpackers. Staff are super friendly and the meals are world class. Definately recommend this place
Very welcoming and helpful staff. Surprisingly beautiful garden. I got great tour advice from the manager Greg. Clean and cool decor. Highly recommended
Welcoming environment and cheerful hosts. Thank you for the hospitality. My learners always appreciate the pool more...
the best lodge in Johannesburg by far, cant be beaten for location ! The Friday braai is legendary! cant wait to return
It seem to be closed, it looked junky from the outside and I didn't get any response from the gate

Ok for baxkpackers on a shoestring budget NOT ideal for ladies, bussiness travelers or airbnb guests.
Great, friendly atmosphere. It felt like being in a welcoming home. Francois is an amazing host
Great environment but they need to replace their bedding otherwise outside you can chill nice
Covid-19 lockdown effects are really visible. The place could use new business to recover.
Good place
