Pros:

Once again, I had a wonderful experience—the staff was incredibly friendly and always ready to help, which made my visit truly enjoyable. It’s the warmth and attentiveness of the team that make all the difference.

Honestly, this is the only place I choose to stay every time I travel to Johannesburg, and it’s because I know I can count on a consistently pleasant experience. Thank you to everyone for making my time there so comfortable and welcoming.

breakfast was truly felt divine! Everything was perfectly prepared and delicious, and it set a fantastic tone for the day.

Looking forward to my next stay!

Pros:

I loved the showers and bathroom in general. They were clean, neat, and cosy. The rooms were clean and neat and cosy. The carpets were clean. The location is central, secure, and quiet.The hotel is useful for short-term travellers who are on business or shopping trips, etc. I would definitely stay there again. I made a mistake when booking and I booked a smoking room. I asked for them to change my room and they quickly changed it the following day. I was happy about that.

Cons:

The breakfast didn't meet my expectations. There was a variety of foods but it didn't taste soo good.but maybe it's just taste buds that differ. The breakfast juice tasted like water. Nevertheless, I would definitely stay there again.
