Guest Ratings & Reviews
Upon arrival, I noticed the rooms weren't as neat or clean for a 5-star rating, and there was a lingering smell of cigarette. The standard rooms were average but functional for a short stay. Despite the issues, the atmosphere was calm and pleasant during my visit.
The hotel offers big and comfortable rooms with excellent linen and finishes, and great views of Sandton. The service was great and accommodating, with friendly and helpful staff doing their best to ensure my comfort. The location is convenient and central in Sandton, ideal for exploring the city. The dining experience was excellent with a variety of tastes catered to. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay enjoyable and convenient.
The hotel provided a comfortable stay with friendly staff, but there were some issues with room maintenance and service efficiency. The location was convenient, but there were inaccuracies during check-in. Dining experience varied from superb options to not so memorable ones.
The hotel had beautifully decorated and very cozy rooms but lacked adequate charging stations for mobile devices. The service was professional, with super helpful staff, but there was a delay in food service. The location was friendly but could be improved with new seat covers and umbrellas. The dining experience was diverse and comprehensive, offering good choices of cereals, yogurt, and fresh fruit. The facilities left some to be desired and needed improvement in cleanliness.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms made great use of the views and were good, but my early check-in request due to a long flight was not available. The service was generally positive, with the staff being friendly and professional, and the location was really good for exploring Sandton. However, there were some issues with additional charges and bookings. The dining was a highlight with exceptional quality, but there were also disappointments compared to previous experiences.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the room exceeded my expectations in terms of space and cleanliness, it was a bit disappointing to find it was missing essentials like water, bath soap, and a directory booklet. On the bright side, the service was top-notch with hospitable and kind staff, although lacking knowledge about some facilities. The location was ideal for my visit to a nearby church, but the dining options were limited, especially the fish and vegetable choices. Despite these drawbacks, the hotel overall provided a calm and friendly atmosphere.
