Very Spacious Room with good comforts & fittings, nice walk in closet/dressing room, nice bathroom, good desk & business facilities in room & free internet, Great TV & satelite channels, Great food & room service. Very convenient for business travel & also connected to Sandton Convention Centre & Sandton City with upmarket Shopping, banking, great choice of restaurants, movies etc., Highly recommend if you want an upmarket hotel in 5 star district of Johannesburg but not that great if looking for value for money. If money is no problem then it is great.

Great location and very comfortable rooms”

Quiet but yet lies within a shopping complex and great restaurants

location is great and secure as it lies within a shopping centre but with it's own security. rooms are very comfortable and hotel has a great gym that's open 24 hours. i like the buffet breakfast and the spread that comes with it. one negative is "wifi" is not freely available within the hotel and rooms. for the rates, it should. otherwise, service at the hotel is great and all at front desk are always very helpful.

The hotel is in a good location and we found the rooms very practical and well set out. The staff was very friendly and welcomed us at arrival. The nonvenience of the skywark to the shopping mall is a definite plus as you have the option of seeing more of the area, other than just the Hotel facilities.

It's location is prime, safe and easy to get whatever you need. It is connected to a shopping mall, and close by the Mandela square. Room size is big, although the style of the room is a bit old. Super spacious bathroom, and complete amenities. They had good chocolate drink too in the mini bar. but beware to check the creamer, mine was overdue the expired date I guess.
