The hotel offers comfortable rooms providing the basics like a mini fridge, kettle, and hairdryer, but the decor is a bit outdated. The service is efficient and attentive, ensuring a comfortable stay. The location, while secure, lacks liveliness, yet it holds an older charm in the midst of modern developments. Dining options are good, albeit slightly pricey. The pool and gym need some updating.

The hotel is very well located, offering tiny rooms and fair dining options. It's not within walking distance to other restaurants but becomes available later in the afternoon. The lack of flushing toilets or drinking water is a downside to consider.

Staying at the hotel was a comfortable experience with a good buffet breakfast and an excellent attached restaurant. The room was well-equipped for business travelers, although it could get noisy with airline crew activities. The service was exceptional in assisting with various needs, and the location was superb for exploring Nelson Mandela Square and shopping.

The hotel offers spacious rooms that are very clean and comfortable, but noise from the construction site can be heard until late at night. The service is exceptional, with a friendly and helpful staff. The central location is a major advantage, just a short drive from popular attractions. The dining experience, while fresh, had some minor disappointments. The facilities are well-maintained with a beautiful garden and pool.

Our stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were just the perfect size for our family, although they had a slight smell of cigarette smoke which was a bit concerning. The staff, while friendly and helpful, seemed a bit distracted at times. The location was ideal, close to Sandton City Mall and various dining options, making it very convenient. The dining experience left a bit to be desired with some disappointments in the food quality. Despite these minor issues, the facilities were well-kept and added to our overall enjoyment of the stay.

Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were a decent size but lacked certain amenities like gowns, slippers, and bottled water, which could have added a touch of luxury. Despite being on the 4th floor with a bit of a walk required, the proximity to various hotel facilities was convenient.

Rooms

The rooms were a decent size and located on the 4th floor, somewhat above the main walkway to other areas of the hotel. However, they were missing some finer touches like gowns, slippers, and bottled water, which could have made the stay more pleasant.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room was comfortable and clean, but I had trouble finding it at first. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful, though not very professional. The location was excellent, right in trendy Sandton, close to malls and with a great outdoor feel. The dining was divine, but there were some issues with the promised butter and preserves. Overall, a pleasant stay with room for improvement.
