HISTORY
Established 2007
The The Nicol Hotel and Apartments, located in the affluent suburb of Bedfordview, was developed in the late 2000s (around 2007–2008) as part of Johannesburg’s growing demand for modern, flexible accommodation. Designed to offer a blend of hotel convenience and residential comfort, the property features serviced apartments and contemporary facilities suited to both business and leisure travellers.
During the 2010 FIFA World Cup, the hotel played a role in hosting international visitors, contributing to the city’s hospitality capacity during this major global event. Today, The Nicol continues to operate as a versatile accommodation option, providing affordable overnight stays as well as long-term living solutions, including one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom apartments, all within a secure and conveniently located environment near key transport routes and commercial hubs.
