WELL-known adventure tour operator, Drifters Adventours, is relaunching its Johannesburg Inn after extensive renovations. The picturesque thatched property has been refurbished to bring it into line with the other 15 Drifters Inns in and around Southern Africa, says marketing director, Ken Hill.
The inn is used by clients for pre- and post-tour accommodation and will feature 16 twin rooms with private bathroom facilities, a restaurant, bar, TV lounge and a swimming pool. A lodge theme was used to create a bush feeling within the city, and all furniture and fittings have been fashioned using local hardwoods, natural stone and thatch.
The Inn is situated in the northern Johannesburg suburb of Northcliff, close to the Emmarentia Dam which incorporates the Johannesburg Botanic Gardens.
