The Abbey
More than a place to stay
Welcome to The Abbey
The Abbey offers the comfort and freedom of a private home, with the thoughtful details and consideredhospitality of a beautiful guesthouse. Designed with a love of interiors, relaxed living and gracious hospitality, it is a peaceful and personal place to stay, gather, work and restore.
Set on leafy Abbey Road, high above the streets of Craighall Park, The Abbey feels wonderfully removed from the city while remaining close to Johannesburg’s key business, dining and lifestyle destinations.
The Abbey is more than accommodation. It’s a house to settle into.
The house has a distinctly Cape-inspired character, with beautiful interiors, natural textures, generous spaces and a sense of relaxed indoor-outdoor living. Within the grounds, guests can slow down, settle in and enjoy the peaceful garden, welcoming communal spaces and warm, attentive service.
The comfort of a private home, beautifully considered
The Abbey was purpose-built as a guesthouse by a Johannesburg-based designer who brought her passion for design, interiors and beautiful living into every detail.
The result is an intimate and carefully considered property that feels personal, homely and entirely individual. The house has been designed to be enjoyed, with spaces where guests can relax, read, work, dine or simply take in the peaceful surroundings.
So stay awhile. Feel at home
Here, luxury is not about formality. It is found in comfort, beauty, thoughtful details and the freedom to feel at home.
So book now to arrange your stay.
