Area Info
Marshalltown, located in the heart of Johannesburg’s inner city, is reclaiming its role as the financial and business hub of the city. Surrounded by Braamfontein, Jeppestown, Joubert Park, and the cultural centre of Newtown, it holds deep historical significance and is regaining strategic importance in the city’s economic and social development.
During the day, the area is vibrant and noticeably safer due to collaborations between businesses and the city to enhance security. While nights can still feel uncertain, many residents argue it's no more dangerous than other parts of Johannesburg.
The area lacks a strong social scene, with few restaurants or bars, making it more popular for business stays. However, its central location and the authenticity of experiencing Johannesburg’s urban core, especially with easy access via the iconic Nelson Mandela Bridge, offer a unique alternative to the polished northern suburbs.
