Great place to stay
Great stay, the hotel is perfectly located between Central Jo'Burg and downtown. Staff were very friendly. Food was great, nice big portions. Communication regarding airport transfers could be improved. There was a confusion as to whether the hotel had shuttle transfer or not. Ended up getting an Uber.

The hotel meet my expectations the cleanliness and service. Every employee I had contact with with was outstanding. Million the front desk clerk was always smiling and ready to be of service. The only negative issue a had was with my room location. The rooms is the area of the bar / lounge and outside smoking area should be avoid due to the late night and early morning visits by guests. I would suggest getting a room on the backside of the hotel and away from the elevators to avoid the noise. I would most definitely stay here again.PS: the breakfast buffet was cheaper at the property than on-line.

Friendly staff, excellent food options in the hotel, close proximity to the city center, all of these contributed to a wonderful stay. The hotel room carpet felt a little bit dirty but that's my only real concern for an otherwise quality hotel.

Fantastic hotel option in Joburg
I travelled with my family to Johannesburg in July 2023. We had a wonderful experience during our stay at the Holiday Inn Johannesburg Sunnyside. The staff was friendly and always ready to assist, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The hotel's location was conveniently situated for tour pickups and in a safe area, making it easy for us to explore the city. Moreover, we thoroughly enjoyed dining at the on-site restaurant; the food was absolutely delicious. We had the buffet for breakfast and dinner, but a la carte options were also available. I would definitely recommend this hotel to others looking for a pleasant and satisfying stay.
