Staying in Centurion
Centurion sits between Pretoria and Johannesburg, within the City of Tshwane Metropolitan Municipality, and is known for its central position, the Gautrain station, SuperSport Park cricket stadium and the Rietvlei Nature Reserve. Visitors come for Centurion Lake, the reserve and the historic Irene village with its farm and Smuts House museum. The city was called Verwoerdburg until 1995.
The hotels on this shortlist are spread across the city. Several stand in Centurion Central, close to Centurion Lake and the Gautrain station, which suits business travellers and short breaks; others lie in residential and estate addresses such as Clubview, Lyttelton, Eldoraigne and the Centurion Golf Estate, better for couples and families who want quiet and space. Cradle Boutique Hotel lies furthest out, 31.3 km from the centre. Guests rate these hotels from 4.1 to 4.7 out of 5, so couples, families and corporate guests can pick by rating, distance and facilities.
