“Beautiful stay. Great location so close to where I needed to be. It is in a gorgeous suburb which is very quiet and safe. Osborne is an old historic house from 1916, so it can be a tiny bit noisy with the wooden floors. But it’s very spacious,...”

Wynand & Jeanette
Osborne House is a beautifully restored Edwardian manor house dating back to 1904, situated in the lush green suburb of Brooklyn right on the edge of Pretoria’s city central. The tranquil sophistication, stylish décor and attention to detail ensure that this guest house remains an exciting discovery for even the most experienced traveller. Osborne House is owner-managed with genuine hospitality and warmth, balancing the historical character of the property with an easy modern style – everything a city character stay should be with staff that really cares. The spacious rooms with en-suite bathrooms, luxurious comfort and elegant décor, convenient location near embassies, government offices and business, good security and a quintessential South African atmosphere resonate in many positive reviews about this prestigious Pretoria-based accommodation establishment.
It is a well-established area, lying to the east of the city centre, encompassing high-end residential properties and several upmarket mall developments. It borders the University of Pretoria to its north and the suburbs of Groenkloof and Waterkloof to its south. Brooklyn is also the location of Pretoria Boys High School.
