The treatment from the worker of this hotel was excellent. Very clean environment and the breakfast meals are great. The only problem I find (and it is typical of south Africa) is exit and entry gates to the Hotel within the surrounding fence. I feel the apartheid is gone and the need to bring down these high long fences cannot... More

This hotel is in a business park in quite an isolated location some distance from Sandton. I could not fault the hotel on cleanliness or comfort -except that that heating was not working and was not fixed despite a request to do so. The hotel does have an adjacent restaurant, 'The Butcher's Block', but that is the only choice and... More

While this hotel has Sandton in its name, it is located in the suburb of Woodmead which is a 15/20 minute drive from the Sandton tourists are looking for (Sandton City/Nelson Mandela Square). It’s located inside an office park along with global brands Fluor, Oracle and GM - overlooking the N1 motorway. The hotel is a 30-40 minute drive from... More

This hotel is worth thinking about if you need to be close to something near-by. It's in an office complex. Other than the hotel bar and restaurant, it's a taxi ride to get to any other facilities (generally taxis are not waiting at the hotel, reception can arrange and charge to your bill, but typically 15 minutes wait until the...

The hotel is an average property, in fact it is a no go for Indian vegetarians - guys were not able to prepare a simple veg sandwich ! Secondly, the Hotel is deceiving people thru the wrong address, the Hotel is not in Sandton but in Woodmead and it's around 12 km from Sandton. Don't know if a brand like... More

We stayed here for one night while overnighting in Johannesburg. The location was fine for us since it is between the airport and midrand/sandton areas which made our travel a little easier.
