Our petite urban guesthouse is a hub of creativity, art and simple creature comforts. We have crafted this home with salvaged pieces, locally produced textiles and our favourite artisanal finds, making Riva pleasantly comfortable and wholly unpretentious.
Our city house hugs urban living in Johannesburg, centrally situated in the residential suburb of Sandton CBD, surrounded by great local restaurants within walking distance. From Riva you have easy access to Johannesburg’s main business districts of Sandton, Bryanston, Rosebank and Waterfall City. Sandton Gautrain station and rapid rail service is a 10 – 15 minute drive, making OR Tambo International Airport within easy reach. Our central location makes us the ideal choice for both business and leisure-seeking guests.
Our rooms are sized to suit your needs. Whether you’re tucked away in a cosy snug or nestled in an airy suite; you will find spaces dotted with art and books and our handpicked treats at your fingertips.
Riva has a garden, sauna and lap pool for the energetic and young, while lazy afternoons can be spent soaking up the sun in the garden. Here you will find rooms filled with well-turned books, plump cushions and deep sofas to nestle into. This is a communal affair, sharing large tables in the kitchen or in the garden, setting the stage for the unexpected meeting and mixing of locals and jet setters.
Please note:
*** Early arrivals and late departures can be arranged on request in line with our house rules.
*** No smoking inside property.
*** No pets allowed.
*** We do not accept children.Read More ›
