Tripleg Apartments 5 Overview
First Impressions
Walking into Tripleg Apartments 5 on Middle Road, I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect from the name — but this four-star property surprised me in the best way. The building sits right in the heart of Johannesburg’s Sandton district, and you immediately get that feeling of being somewhere that locals actually know about. It’s not flashy or trying too hard, just solid and well-thought-out in a way that makes you think the owners actually care about getting things right.
Location & Getting Around
You know what’s great about this spot? You’re basically in Sandton’s sweet spot without the chaos of being right on the main drag. Middle Road gives you easy access to everything — the Gautrain station, Nelson Mandela Square, all those shopping centers — but you can actually get some peace when you want it. The fact that there’s parking right on site is honestly a game-changer if you’re driving around Johannesburg. I mean, finding secure parking in this area usually costs a fortune, so having it included just makes everything easier.
The Apartment Experience
These aren’t your typical hotel rooms — each apartment feels like someone’s actual home, which I guess makes sense given the name. The kitchen setup is what really sold me on the place; it’s not just a mini-fridge and microwave situation, but an actual functional space where you can cook if you want to. The second floor location (there’s an elevator, don’t worry) gives you decent views and keeps street noise to a minimum. Everything feels clean and modern without being sterile, if that makes sense.
Why Couples Choose This Place
I can totally see why couples rate this place so highly — there’s something intimate about having your own space rather than just a hotel room. You can actually spread out, maybe cook breakfast together, or just hang out without feeling like you’re living in a box. The Sandton location means you’re close to some really good restaurants (the ones in Nelson Mandela Square are touristy but fun), and honestly, the whole setup just feels more like you’re living in the city rather than just visiting it. Plus, the staff seems to understand that couples want their privacy — they’re helpful when you need them but not hovering around constantly.
Why Guests Keep Coming Back
What strikes me most about Tripleg Apartments 5 is how it gets the basics right without any fuss. The location score of 8.5 from recent guests isn’t just marketing speak — you really are well-positioned for both business and leisure stuff in Johannesburg. The free parking, the apartment-style setup, the solid Sandton address — it all adds up to something that just works. It’s not trying to be the fanciest place in town, but for the price point and the experience you get, it’s honestly hard to find much to complain about. The kind of place you’d actually recommend to friends without any caveats.

It was very unpleasant and I will not be returning back to this apartment again. – Kamy from South Africa – December 6, 2023 (2/10)
I liked the location, I have been at this location before and it is completely convenient.
What could be improved: The place was not cleaned properly when we got there, the last guest had left it a mess and cleaners were only able to put on clean bedding on the bed. The bin was full of dirt, the fridge had food of the previous guest and the bathroom was not cleaned at all.
Our check in was not smooth at all, previous guest did not leave the room key when checking out and we had to wait almost two hours for the spare key. This was an absolute inconvenience waiting for the spare, as the owner did not ensure everything was ready for the next guest to check in
By the time we entered the room, it was late and we ended up not resting enough from our flight.
Check out was another hassle as we were rushed out of the apartment due to the next guest checking in. We were inconvenienced throughout our stay and it was not pleasant at all. I would not recommend this place or stay here again. First and last time,Very Good – Ngwenya from South Africa – September 7, 2023 (8/10)
