It is in a very safe and convenient location. A major shopping center is right next door. The staff are incredible and the facilities are good and well maintained. Meals are great too and they have a nice lounge and bar near the pool side that gets quite busy

First time staying at the hotel (although have been to the bar and restaurant many times before), and definitely the most convenient location in Sandton. The renovations have been fantastic, and have really modernized the hotel. The breakfast spread is amazing, and generally it is everything one expects from a hotel of this nature.

Hotel was rather busy when we arrived and the entrance was chaotic but all the staff were very charming, efficient, welcoming and warm. Our room was spacious and clean. Service was great from all staff members at breakfast and in the bar in the evening. We had a great stay and would certainly return.

This is what a 5 star hotel should be. Nothing is too much trouble, assistance and service on hand at every turn. We have stayed at other supposedly 5 star establishments but the Sandton Sun eclipses them all. Friendly knowledgable staff and superb facilities throughout. Some of the fittings are clearly quite old, hence my 4 star for that section but it has no impact on the functionality. What makes this hotel so special is the quality of the staff. They are clearly paid well and have a grace and genuine will to help.
