Satyagraha House

Not just a stay, but a complete experience you don’t want to miss. The staff is kind, caring and considerate. Great bed. The dinner and breakfast were all we could wish for. Simple, but delicious and made from scratch.

Small, serene, and deeply personal. The exhibition is compact but thoughtful, and the house’s architecture adds to the calm. Staff keep numbers low so you can move at your own pace and actually read. You’ll be done in about an hour, but the atmosphere hangs around. Book ahead and treat it like a quiet interlude in the city.

Intimate and historical guest house with lots of charm. The staff is outstanding, without exception kind, warm and accommodating. The food was a delight, even for those of us non vegetarians. Our room was the historical Kasturba room, spacious, clean and comfortable. The fire was lit in its fireplace for us on cool spring nights. It had the best shower we had in our 4 different high end hotels in SA. Incredible history to top it all off.

We very much enjoyed our stay at this house, which is architecturally interesting in its own right aside from the fact that Gandhi once lived there. Highlights were dinner by the fire in the sitting room, the array of books and the jazz performance that was arranged at our request. Would highly recommend whether or not you have a strong interest in Gandhi.

our stay at the Satyagraha house was very pleasurable, informative and relaxing. We greatly enjoyed the museum exhibits and the house's peaceful atmosphere.

I had the pleasure of enjoyng a night at this wonderful sanctuary located calmly and peacefully in the heart of johannesburg.||The history of the location and building speaks for itself as one of Ghandi residences during his tme here in SA.||This place is perfect place to switch off, meditated, have a massage & unwind without the interruption of technology (no TV's in the room, nor aircon) however the indoor fire place was amazing.||As for the food - delicious vegatarian meals are served, ensuring the body and soul is nourished. The pairing menu is super delicous and is highly suggested when staying here.||||Staff are wonderful friendly and accomodating.||||Thank you to the whole team for a wonderful experience.

Very nice place, the house where Gandhi stayed has been left mostly untouched, with 2 new units added for guests. The rooms are very comfortable, very clean.|We loved the meals we took in the Kraal.|The museum is also very interesting, presenting some aspects of Ghandi's early life we did not know.

Satyagraha House is jewel of a place for anyone who would like to experience and get to know the life of Gandhi and his principles. Allan made sure we had a amazing time and gave us a very good experience with his insight, friendliness and deep knowledge of the historical context.
