I've stayed at the Michaelangelo four times. Each time I've noticed something better about the hotel. This time, the front desk staff (late night shift) were more than amazing at providing customer service. Mario, Guest relations Manager - was very helpful in getting our group arranged and settled in the hotel. Only one complaint... the presence of call girls in... More

I recently stayed at this wonderful hotel and was incredibly impressed by everything from the attentive service of all the staff to the superb menu of the Piccolo Mondo Restaurant where breakfast is a real feast. The location which is adjacent to Nelson Mandela Square is perfect as there are many restaurants and shops to choose from. However what struck... More

It's a quite spatious hotel (rooms and lobby), with a quite diverse breackfast and plenty of staff around to help you out. Very nice details around, but too much marble and stones if you're more into modern-design hotels. Just be carefull because the hotel does not include unlimited wi-fi internet, and it did not work properly in my bedroom. The... More

This is a nice hotel located in perhaps the best location in Johannesburg for restaurants, shopping etc. My stay was seamless -- from the hotel arranged pickup at the airport to an early check-in they accommodated without issue. The front desk staff was exceptionally pleasant and helpful. The spa was excellent and better quality than many in the U.S. The... More

I have been lucky enough to stay in this great hotel over 20 times. The rooms, service and quality of both breakfast and dinner are superb. Never had lunch here, but am sure it will also be great. Friendly, but very professional staff, from reception through to cleaners and the porters are always on the ball and helpful. Many hotels... More

This was the most wonderful hotel! The staff was first rate, especially the concierge, Archie. He was ever so helpful with our questions. Wonderful, attentive staff, excellent dining, and beautiful rooms. We were so impressed, and would highly recommend it.
