Parktown

Parktown is a suburb of Johannesburg that is situated very close to the old central business district of the city. The suburb is wedged between the M1 highway, Empire and Barry Herzog roads. The suburb is host to Parktown Boys' High School as well as several other schools. For higher education the Johannesburg College of Education, The University of the Witwatersrand and the Rand Afrikaans University, as well as Technicon Witwatersrand are all very close.

The Milpark Hospital is situated in Parktown and the Johannesburg General Hospital is within five minutes drive. Several other clinics and hospitals in the Hillbrow area are all very close. The visitor will find Parktown very handy for the many theatres and restaurants of downtown Johannesburg. Johannesburg's three big stadia, Ellis Park, the Johannesburg Stadium and the Standard Bank Arena are all within ten minutes drive. The Johannesburg Zoological Gardens are just a few blocks away.

Parktown, Johannesburg, is a historic suburb known for its beautiful architecture and proximity to various attractions.

Here are five things to see or do around Parktown:

1. Explore the Johannesburg Zoo: Located nearby, the Johannesburg Zoo is one of the largest in South Africa, home to a wide variety of animals and offering educational programs and events. It's a great place for family outings, providing opportunities to see lions, elephants, and many other species in well-maintained habitats.

2. Visit the Wits Art Museum: Situated at the University of the Witwatersrand (Wits), the Wits Art Museum houses an extensive collection of African art. The museum features both contemporary and historical pieces, offering a deep dive into the artistic heritage of the continent.

3. Tour the Historic Mansions: Parktown is famous for its well-preserved historic mansions, dating back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Guided tours are available, providing insights into the architecture and history of these grand homes, many of which were built during Johannesburg's early gold rush era.

4. Stroll through the Johannesburg Botanical Garden: A short drive from Parktown, this botanical garden in Emmarentia is a serene spot featuring themed gardens, such as the Rose Garden and the Herb Garden. The park also includes a large dam, perfect for picnics, walking, and enjoying the natural beauty.

5. Experience Constitution Hill: Just adjacent to Parktown, Constitution Hill is a significant historical site that includes the Old Fort Prison Complex and the Constitutional Court of South Africa. Visitors can learn about South Africa’s journey to democracy, see the court in action, and view various exhibits related to human rights and justice.

These attractions offer a mix of cultural, historical, and recreational experiences that showcase the richness of the area around Parktown, Johannesburg.

Why the $elect Stays initiative?

  1. Encourage and boost local tourism through making holidays more affordable.
    This is achieved by offering locals a 15% saving. The same 15% that would have left our shores had it been paid as commission to an International Booking site.
  2. Reduce the dependancy on large International Booking sites.
    This is achieved by building up a loyal following of verified users who we will market to on an exclusive and regular basis to maximise the opportunity.
  3. Ensure more money stays within local tourism to benefit us all.
    It is no secret that the large International Booking sites pay no or very little tax to South Africa or Namibia. By taking back a little more control we boost our own economy, and in particular, our local tourism. This is good for us all.
    Read this article on how the Australian holiday accommodation sector is suffering in the same way.
  4. Exclusive.
    Only listings on Stays can participate, which means less competition for bookings.
How it works for accommodation-seekers:

The number is verified automatically BEFORE the enquiry is sent.
The property is notified on the enquiry that they are a verified member.
Property ensures that the quote includes a 15% saving.

Terms & Conditions

  1. The property (you) must offer the 15% saving to all verified members
  2. Verification is done automatically at the time of an enquiry. It is at the property’s discretion whether to offer the saving for a telephonic enquiry. (As you have no means to verify the membership number, it is advisable to get them to do a formal enquiry so they can be verified).
  3. If the property is currently running a "Special" greater than 15% then the "Special" price will apply. (No further savings needs to be offered). EXCEPT in the case where the "Special" is lower than 15%. In that case the 15% will apply.
    Example: A property offering a 10% discount, must offer an additional 5% discount to valid members - so they get a total 15% saving.
  4. The property must offer valid members the saving all year round. (Properties that pick and chose in which seasons to participate run the risk of being removed from the programme completely. Allowing selective participation defeats the integrity of this initiative).
  5. The property must not inflate the price before the 15% is applied. Prices displayed should be the rack rate. (The official or advertised price of a room).
  6. The property must honour any bookings made while the property was participating as a $elect Stays property.
  7. The property must honour the agreement and the spirit in which the initiative is designed to benefit local tourism.
