Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Green Odd Guesthouse, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request rooms on the upper floors (4th or 5th) as they are likely to be quieter due to being farther away from the street and the potential noise from the Malan Street traffic. Additionally, being on a higher floor may also provide a better view of the surrounding area.
Rooms to avoid
Rooms near the service entrance or lift may experience more noise, especially if the hotel is busy or if there are deliveries being made. Avoid rooms on the lower floors (1st or 2nd) as they may receive more noise from the street and surrounding buildings.
Best views
Rooms on the 4th or 5th floor may have a view of the surrounding cityscape, including the nearby City Hall and the Church Square.
Quietest floors
3rd to 5th floors
🔊 Noise notes
Malan Street can be busy, especially during rush hour, so rooms on the lower floors may experience more traffic noise. Additionally, the hotel's proximity to the city center means there may be some background noise from the surrounding buildings and streets.
Insider tips
Be sure to request a room on a higher floor to minimize street noise and take in the view of the city. If you have a car, consider requesting a room closer to the lift for easier access, but be aware that this may come with more noise from the lift and service entrance.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
