I would stay again. Good location. Easy check-in. Affordable

I would like to commend the hotel for greatly improving the physical security around the outside of the hotel and also the walkway into Sandton City. We felt much safer than the last time we were there inOctober

The F&B is great, especially the breakfast. But the main attraction is the staff. They make it a true home-away-from-home.

The staff at the hotel are friendly and very helpful. They always go an extra yard to resolve issues. The hotel is secure and safe I would like to express my worry about the walk from the hotel to the entrance to Sandton shopping centre near the Michelangelo. The area has no visible security or police and this is unsafe especially during the night. We never reported it by before the March 2020 lockdown, my wife was accosted by two men she was saved by the appearance of a big group of shoppers from the centre. i would strongly recommend security personnel or the very least a manned camera.

We liked the central position of the hotel within the Sandton City Mall. This made access to shopping, banks and restaurants very easy and convenient. The security for the hotel was also very reassuring. The parking is expensive.

Location and convenience is ideal. Staff and hospitality is off the charts.

Love and really enjoyed my stay in this hotel. Great location, tasty breakfast but the swimming pool is too small with no lifeguards around

Very friendly staff,everyone quite jovial and quick to serve their guests,very good breakfast meal fresh food everyday and awesome house cleaning they do their job throughly

Our stay was great. the room was comfortable. However I have two complaints number 1 Why does the Hotel not coordinate with the Police to have more of a presence on the stairway, walkway and surrounding areas around the hotel. My wife walked up the stairs at 0800hrs and was followed by two young men. in addition she was advised not to walk from Guatrain to the hotel as it was not safe. Police presence and CCTV in the area would help greatly especially eraly mrning and evenings. 2 We were last in the hotel in May and noticed a bad smell in the parking garage. The smell is still there. Could yoiu do something about it

Always stay here. Home away from home. Staff all know me even if I've been gone for months and welcome me 'home'. Great breakfast buffet. Couldn't be more convenient. Only improvements would be bigger closets and a mini-fridge to keep water or other things cold.

The best location for business. Very friendly service in all areas. Reasonably priced. Only drawbacks are that rooms are a bit small, limited closet space and no mini-fridge. But the rest more than makes up.

the property is close to offices, restaurants and the shops. the rooms need an update. they have been like that for a long time. For instance there is a need for a bigger TV and also the carpets in some areas may need changing

Extremely convenient with walking distance access to Sandton City.

Always stay here if available when I come to Johannesburg for business. Center of business district, convenient.

Bed is wonderful. Breakfast wonder variety. Bath tub perfect size. Room service timely. Location the best. This my second time in a year. Really won't consider stay anywhere else. The price is right. Train from airport right around the corner. Great place to stay.
