CATEGORIES: Accommodation in South Africa » South Africa Bed & Breakfast » South Africa Guest Houses » DESCRIPTION: Wooden floors, pressed steel ceilings, stained glass windows, Victorian baths, custom made tiles; African art, Indonesian teak, soft feather pillows, crisp cotton linen… Tinkling fountains, cascades of bougainvillea, trailing jasmine, roses, irises and lavender. Freshly brewed coffee, croissants, smoked salmon and scrambled eggs, this is just a small taste of what Tama Rumah Guest House has to offer. Tama Rumah has six bedrooms; all of them unique and deliciously different. So delicious that we've named each of them after the flowers in the garden. ACCOMMODATIONOur beds are so inviting you’ll want to jump on them (of course if you do, you might be charged extra). We offer both feather and synthetic pillows, and a hundred per cent cotton percale linen. We also provide gorgeous robes so you can look glamorous as you lounge around on our Queen size beds. The bathrooms are a mouth-watering confection of stained glass, handmade tiles and mosaics with wood and brass finishes. We know that you’ll want to spend all your time there, which is why we provide magazine racks in each of the loos. There are phone lines and internet connections in all of the rooms, colour TV’s, M-Net, safes, tea and coffee, ceiling fans and heaters. Fax facilities are also available. We also provide hairdryers. FACILITIES AND SERVICESOur lounge area has a TV if you’re feeling sociable, as well as a selection of African art and local jewellery if you’re in the mood for a bit of armchair shopping. We also have a selection of second hand books for sale if you left home without anything good to read. Our dining area is cozy and we have a beautiful garden at the back if you want to sit outside. Our breakfasts are seriously scrumptious and we do provide low-cal alternatives for the more health conscious (not to mention a list of scary personal trainers who will only be too happy to come and put you through your paces). And if you need your clothes washed and ironed or dry-cleaned, we can sort that out for you too. LOCATIONArtists, actors, academics, fashionistas, foodies and film directors, Suits and sports fans, TV types and tourists, whatever your particular inclination, Melville has something for everyone.

DIRECTIONS: From Johannesburg International Airport: As you exit take the R24 to Johannesburg. Always stay in the 2nd lane from the left and always follow the signs for Johannesburg as you exit the airport. Rather go slowly as it can be confusing if you take the wrong turn. The R24 merges with the N12. Stay in the 2nd lane from the left. Take the N3 South. As the road widens to 5 lanes take the M2 West off- ramp to Johannesburg. Stay on the M2 West (the city will be on your right) until you get to the Crown Interchange. Stay in the middle lane after the speed limit is reduced to 80. At the Crown Interchange take the M1 Sandton/Pretoria off ramp and you’ll proceed North on the “double-Decker” freeway. Look out for and take the R55 Empire Road off-ramp after the Smit Street off-ramp. Keep left and flow into Empire Road. Stay in the middle lane and proceed straight along Empire. Don’t be tempted to take the left hand lane over the bridge. Continue past the Holiday Inn Garden Court on your left and through the big intersection with Barry Hertzog. Empire becomes Stanley . Continue to the T-Junction at the SABC. Turn right. At the 3rd traffic light turn right (the ABSA call center will be diagonally opposite you) into Woodham, which becomes Lothbury. Continue down Lothbury, which become 7th Street until you get to a traffic light at 4th Avenue. Turn right into 4th Avenue. Tama Rumah is at number 88, the 3rd house on the right hand side. It has distinctive wrought iron palisade fence. MAP: Available at: http://www.sa-venues.com/visit/tamarumah/map.php |
