Top hotels in Turffontein
City Lodge Hotel at OR Tambo International Airport
The hotel is perfectly acceptable with spacious rooms, but the decor is of the most ordinary kind. The corridors were straight out of The Shining – quite alarmingly long and alienating.

Southern Sun O.R Tambo
Good bed and breakfast. Also very convenient because of close proximity to the airport.
