D'Oreale Grande (formerly The Emperor) is our choice for an easy, comfortable overnight stay before an early flight from Johannesburg.

A regular, free shuttle bus transports you to this resort complex, complete with gaming house, shopping emporium, swimming pool and spa, just 5 minutes from the airport.

The hotel is 5-star quality with 196 spacious, luxurious rooms and a really excellent restaurant, yet very reasonably priced. In the same complex is the 3-star sister hotel, Peermont Metcourt at Emperors Palace with 248 rooms.

Peermont Met also offers a complimentary shuttle from the OR Tambo Airport. There are 196 luxurious rooms and suites which provide ultimate comfort.

The theme is Roman – Caesar’s Palace style. Relax in Octavia’s Sensorium Health and Beauty Spa, dine at elegant Aurelia’s Restaurant or try your luck on some of the games.
