Discover how Johannesburg became known as the city of gold in this sleek apartment. A studio and a connected one-bedroom apartment come together to make this little home with enough space for four people to cohabit comfortably during a city getaway. With a full kitchen and a well-equipped kitchenette, you'll have more than enough space to cook what you like, relax where you like and stretch your legs. Access your own balcony from the main living area or directly from your bedroom, where you can let the natural light floor your spaces during the daytime. Catch up on your workout at the building's gym facility, or head down to the shared pool to float in the calm waters under the warm South African sun. You'll find yourself in a beautiful and affluent suburb of the city, known for its lush eateries, quality steak houses, cocktail bars and fantastic high-end shopping. Spend your time indulging yourself in luxury, or explore the city and see some of the rich history and culture that make it one of South Africa's most famous cities. There are countless museums to explore including the Mandela House museum, formerly the residence of Nelson Mandela himself.
