Wonderful

It was clean and neat. The room was big but sparse. Service was friendly and the food was nice. TV was limited and for R1700 a night I would have expected more. There was nothing exceptional that made it different from a less expensive option.
A comfortable and well appointed hotel and room with very friendly and helpful staff. Very close to the Melrose Arch precinct and not too far off the M1 highway.
Stayed a couple of nights. It was a good stay, clean property including gym. Pool is small and thin and by the dinning area only thing I dislike. Overall great service. Was able to uber/bolt from there and food service was easy. Must eat there atleast once it’s delicious.
Everything about the hotel was wonderful except arranging airport shuttles. Twice they were ordered ahead of time and twice they never showed up and our entire group of 16 had to scramble for an alternative. We probably will not use this property again because of this issue and that there is an expense to use an airport shuttle if it does show up.

Bad Hotel
Terrible. I did not enjoy my stay due to this hotels treatment. My friend later left for another hotel close by and saw the big difference.
