About

Heatherdale is one of those amazing Jo'burg places.  It's so close to most of the big city amenities.  Yet there's a real laid-back, country-feeling about the place.  There's nothing laid-back about the service though - it's very competent, professional and warm. 

It's a great choice if you're visiting for business or pleasure. Set in spacious, 4-acre gardens, there's plenty of birdlife - which is probably why most of the rooms and suites are called after some of their favourite feathery friends.

There's also a choice of accommodation so you can decide what suits you best: 2 luxury suites, 6 luxury rooms and 3 self-catering cottages.  Every one is tastefully decorated, unfussy, neat and clean. Each room has it's own en-suite bathroom (bath and/or shower), private patio with garden chairs for enjoying the outdoors.  Also wireless ADSL connections, DSTV, mini bar, complimentary tea, coffee and biscuits. 

North Riding, (where you'll find Heatherdale) is in the northern suburbs of Johannesburg,  and is one of the safest areas with dedicated police patrols.  The perimeter is secure and there's restricted access to the property.

Accommodation:
Kingfisher and Bee-Eater Suites:
Both Luxury Suites have private, covered balconies overlooking the Spionkop Valley. Full en-suite bathrooms with separate shower, open plan lounge with fireplace and additional sleeper.  Lovely, spacious suites.  Stocked mini-bar fridge, TV and DSTV Channel.

Conferencing:

Why visit Heatherdale Guest House and Conference Centre
Best Features: Their slogan is 'Escape the City without leaving it'.  To be able to dodge the hectic traffic, sit in the countryside, watch birds and sip a G&T while still a stone's throw from the action is ... well, priceless ...

Bear In Mind: Because of their perfect location to the Dome, make sure that you book way in advance if any big shows or concerts are on ...

 
Things to Do and See
Situated less than a kilometre from the Coca-Cola Dome and Northgate Shopping Centre, Heatherdale is also close to the Randburg CBD, Sandton, Fourways, Montecasino and not far from Kya Sands, Laser Park and Strijdom Office centres.

The Ice-Rink at Northgate is a huge drawcard for children.
