Pleasant short stay
Pros:

Location

Cons:

There were no glasses in the room (had to ask for it). Only 2x small waters in the room on arrival with some "past shelf life" fruits. Attendance to detail is lacking - ensure that there are at least glases in a room (they have apologised but it should not be necessary for a guest to ask for such an elemental item).

Hotel incrível
Pros:

O hotel é simplesmente incrível, desde os pequenos detalhes aos grandes. Café da manhã é excelente, o quarto, o chuveiro, a cama. Sem falar na localização e na facilidade de buscar restaurante. Recomendo para que for a Johannesburgo.

Cons:

Não tem do que não gostar nesse hotel.

Cons:

There is not a lot of halaal friendly options. Eg: Breakfast - no salmon, or any chicken sausages available. mainly eggs , fruit and cereals for halaal options. Variety can increase to accommodate the hotel standard. This has been the same issue over the last 6 to 8 years. Have been complaining, but still no slight change

Back again
Pros:

Location, staff, rooms, beds, showers, bedding, and especially the staff who went above and beyond for us with guests visiting.

Cons:

The pool was closed due to some remedial works...but not told that when we booked. Pigeon poo on the outside pool.area decking as well as our balcony which we walked into our room. The staff were quick to solve. Prices were a bit steep even in foreign currency!?
