I'm based in Edenvale, Johannesburg, South Africa... just 2 minutes from the International Airport to be exact, and the reason I made contact with you is because I have launched a BnB Guest House, and would love to extend to you the invitation to utilize us whenever you are in the area... :) Especially when you want a special "run-away" spot for special occasions…We do Romanic evenings for couples as per special arrangement :) Or you are just a tired traveler looking for a better night's sleep out than any ordinary "hotel" could offer you! :)
Well, I'd like my Guest House to become for you & your family or colleagues… literally a "home-away-from-home", where you are happy to be, comfortable and relaxed, whenever you travel up to Jo'burg. A place that is fun, flexible & safe to be in, without loosing the "perks" of living a "catered for" life-style :) I've tried hard to bring about a unique combination of ALL that, here in my OWN home.
We are a typical friendly South African family, that have a beautiful, small, private Guest house, that boasts 3 x Double bedrooms-en suite with FULL bathrooms. It is private because it is situated in a "boomed-off" area, in a safe neighborhood, and rooms are separate from the main house, ensuring privacy within the environment as well. Breena BnB Guest House, is situated in Harmelia, Edenvale, just 2 minutes from the Airport, but OUTSIDE the "noise/landing zone" of the planes, that offers a "Bed and Breakfast" service, (AND offers dinner facilities if necessary), to travelers that want something more than just the "impersonal" hotel life style, experienced by most travelers, most of the time. It’s a place to "share space and enjoy good company" be treated like you ARE someone special! :)
I've combine a feel of "African Lodge" with the standard & professionalism of "Hotel" and combined it in a unique way that offers "up-market, catered-for accommodation" with a good, healthy dose of South African friendly hospitality!
Our rooms ( + 20m2+) are full bathroom-ensuite and boast Queen beds with King-size linen for plushness, tastefully decorated for the "discerning" corporate guest with a flare of Africa and a dash of luxury, 32"LCD TV's with FULL DSTV & DVD surround sound systems, bar fridge with "un-limited" Tea/coffee tray, hairdryer, Wireless internet connections, laminated flooring, gas geysers which makes the facility comfortable during "load-shedding".
The rest of the facilities include a large Lapa & bar, furnished with comfortable couches and chairs, big enough to dance the night away or play games in all night long! We have MANY board games and lots of people dying to have some fun! Or there's a large fireplace feature were you can sit around and visit ALL night long if you want to. :) We have great "braai" (or barbeque) facilities, that we use for catering the evening meal with. What is South Africa without its BRAAI! :)
We also have a lovely salt pool that you can cool off in on hot days or nights with a bubbling "Jacuzzi/martini seat" where you can sit while enjoying the massaging effect of the water jets, while sipping drinks and just relaxing. :)

Well.... I'm round the corner from City Lodge, which is a popular hotel here in S.A. They charge R770/p/p/night (single) and R960/p/room/ for 2 people who are sharing. These rates are as per the Internet quotable rates & exclude breakfast & supper, and are valid from 1st Feb - 31 July 2009.
We are charging (ZAR) R750/p/p/night which INCLUDES dinner, bed & breakfast, and R1000/p/room/n when sharing, (max 2 adults), out of season.
Our "out-of-season" rates equates to an approximate international currency rate as quoted for a per "SINGLE person/night" rate, rounded off:
(USD) $ 95/p/p/n OR (CAD) $ 105/p/p/n, OR
(EUR) 70/p/p/n OR (GBP) 60/p/p/n OR (JPY) 8,920/p/p/n
(AUD) 120/p/p/n OR (NZD) 150/p/p/n
Corporate deals where companies (or individuals) book "block or multiple bookings" for reps, students or travelling "management" like CEO's & directors... are entitled to a sliding scale "discount rate" which ranges from 5%-10%, depending on the length of stay... :)
BUT....!!!!!
I must tell you..... I do have a brilliant plan in place for "referral business"... :)
Because I believe in the "10% principle".... where I like to give BACK 10% of what I receive..... that means "business-wise" I work like this...
For every 10 new people you refer to us, who "book, pay & stay", I give YOU a complimentary "night-on-the-house" gift voucher for YOU to use any time you want... :) You can even "accumulate" the vouchers to use them together over a weekend or a few days at a time, making it easier for you to use conveniently. I will be so glad if you could spread the word around! :)
You must just make sure they give me YOUR details so that I can keep a record of how many people you refer.... :) Its based on the "Barter" system and works well..... everyone wins... :)
Kind Regards
Celeste

Our rates include being picked up and dropped off at the airport if necessary, but we also offer a "shuttle/ pick-me-up" service anywhere in and around the Jo'burg area for a minimal fee. We are close to all the major shopping centre's, like East Rand Mall, Festival Mall, Eastgate, Greenstone, Sandton City ect… where you can do everything from ice-skating to movies, from shopping to ten-pin bowling, from Action "mini" golf to casino's like Emperors Palace, Carnival and Monte Casino…. From live theater to rap jumping down our city buildings! …. Referring others who are visiting Jo'burg would be nice & should be FUN & rewarding! And the place you stay should make you feel like you are AT HOME! :)
So my dear, I'd love it if you would give us a try yourself sometime, I'm sure if you try us, you will come to LOVE us! :)
Lets turn passing strangers into lasting friends. :)

How are you and your business going? Do you get very many out of country guests? South Africa sounds like a great exotic trip. I would love to go sometime.
