Greenstone Hill Accommodation

Greenstone Hill is a suburb on the East Rand of Gauteng Province. Although much of the surrounding areas such as Edenvale and Modderfontein have been developed and established for quite some time, Greenstone Hill has only recently been developed. The suburb is also the location of the newly built Greenstone Shopping Mall which was opened in 2007. Expansions of this mall and the nearby Stoneridge Mall, along with other smaller shopping centres such as Eden-Meadows have made Greenstone Hill a big drawcard for shoppers and entertainment seekers from all over the city.

Greenstone Hill is very well located and within a short drive to OR Tambo International Airport. This suburb, along with its neighbouring suburb of Edenvale, are within easy access and close proximity to 3 major roads, these being the N3 (also known as the Joburg to Durban Highway, the R24 which runs from Johannesburg City Centre to O.R. Tambo International Airport, and Modderfontein Road (R25). The Gautrain line passes to the east and the north of Greenstone Hill and the closest stations are Rhodesfield and Marlboro.
