Parktown Accommodation
About Parktown
The Parktown Heritage Trail provides a self-guided walking route past some of the area's most significant buildings. Northwards House, built in 1904, operates as a museum showcasing the lifestyle of Johannesburg's early elite. The suburb also houses several important educational institutions, including St John's College and the main campus of the University of the Witwatersrand, which borders the area to the east. These institutions contribute to the suburb's active daytime atmosphere.
Visitors seeking Parktown accommodation will find themselves well-positioned for exploring greater Johannesburg. The suburb sits between the Johannesburg Zoo to the north and Constitution Hill to the south, both within a 10-minute drive. Rosebank and its shopping centres lie approximately 4 kilometres northeast, while Melville's restaurant scene is accessible within 15 minutes by car.
The area's elevation provides cooler temperatures compared to lower-lying parts of the city. Mature plane trees and oaks create shaded streets, particularly pleasant during Johannesburg's warm summer months. Several parks and green spaces dot the suburb, offering quiet spots away from the urban density.
Parktown functions primarily as a residential and institutional area rather than a tourist hub. Visitors stay here for its historical character, proximity to central Johannesburg, and the relative tranquility it offers compared to busier commercial districts. The suburb provides a base for business travellers attending meetings at nearby corporate offices or academics visiting the university. Its position on the main routes leading north makes it a practical stopover for those travelling to or from Pretoria.
