What a lovely place to stay in

What a lovely place to stay in Johannesburg! The service is great and the reception staff are very helpful. The room service is very efficient. We ordered dinner on the night of arrival and it was delivered in about 10 minutes. We'll certainly return in the next winter holidays...

My home from home

This was my second stay in three months. I was taking care of family business and needed access to a copier, a fax, printer, computing facilities etc. Staff were helpful at all times and friendly. Room service was always quick and pleasant. Not all instructions like 'hold the onions' were properly followed but that was a minor inconvenience. The food was competent but not special.

Dining tip: Short drive from hotel

Melrose Arch has a wonderful selection of restaurants and cafes for a change from the hotel's somewhat limited menu choices.
