Some of the service needs sharpening up but overall a pleasant experience
Pros:

Nice spacious quiet room and comfortable bed. Lunch in downstairs bar took a long time to arrive - disappointing. Dinner in main restaurant was very nice and service was good

NH Johannesburg Sandton Restaurant can have all my money! Loved it !
Pros:

Does the restaurant add “good personality” as a requirement for the kitchen staff? I met the waiters and chefs and they instantly made me feel welcome and at home. Everyone is just so friendly and they seem happy to have you there. Special thanks to Solomon & sphamandla (best waiters EVER). Androni , I think that’s her name , who was serving oysters and Precious , the lady who chucked the oysters and salted them. It was really nice talking to them and they were incredibly friendly. Another lady, I unfortunately didn’t get her name but she prepared the desert, offered me some and later came to ask for a review and to hear if I liked it. The customer service is just amazing. And also brunhildah who helped me find a seat where I would feel most comfortable and also borrowed me her charger when my phone went off and I needed to call my ride. I Went for the seafood buffet and man was it good. There are sooo many options to choose from. They had EVERYTHING!!!!! I really loved how quiet it was. The restaurant is soo clean and the sitting area is very beautiful. This is the type of restaurant you’d frequent just because of how kind and helpful the staff is. I would definitely go there again.

Pros:

Oh my word I had the best service with Boitumelo at dinner all week that I was there. I remembered her from the previous year that I came and she was so lovely ! I loooove a whiskey sour and she hinted to the barman same and it’s safe to say it was the best one I had ever had ! I couldn’t be happier with the service

Fabulous short stay & great location for Mandela Square.
Pros:

A fabulous hotel. Great location. Staff really friendly. Food delicious. I especially liked the shuttle to Mandela Square - really useful. The shoe shine guy was brilliant- we had been on safari & he cleaned our shoes on our return & they were like new.

Cons:

Check in (and out) was frustratingly slow. Reception staff were lovely but I honestly don’t know why it took so long.
One complaint is that the hotel booked us a taxi to take us to the airport & it broke down on the way there. Luckily I had good service on my phone and I was able to book an uber who picked us up within minutes & got us to the airport on time. It was very stressful. I emailed the hotel about it & asked for a refund but so far they have still not contacted me. I would have thought they would use reputable taxis but our driver told us the car had not been serviced for 3 years & it had been playing up for a while. The driver was very apologetic.
