My stay at the hotel was lovely, with well-appointed and very comfortable rooms that perfectly suited my needs and made my time in JHB very pleasant. The service was phenomenal, with the staff pulling out all the stops to ensure a good stay. The location, alongside the Hyde Park shopping centre, offered superb shopping and dining options, though the hotel doors were not well lit. The dining experience was varied and well-prepared, providing a wonderful experience. Overall, a delightful stay with great value for money.
