This property is beautiful, clean and the entire staff from the maids to the front desk and restaurant are all 4 stars! So professional. Staff is always cleaning and beautifying the property. So polite and I did not witness any attitudes. This is my new go to when staying in Johannesburg. Management is down to earth and eager to please. This is what I am used to in the states. They are tops!

Stay away.

This is possibly the worst experience I've had at a hotel. I had to move rooms 3 times. The first room had a massive leak from the ceiling then the second did not have properly working lights. By the 3rd attempt i was so tired i simply accepted my fate.

nice apartment hotel but inconsistent with heating, asking for help and queries. the heating is a bit weird, and there aren't always kitchen items like pots/pans, depending on the apartment. same goes for washing/drying machines depending on the apartment. very nice, modern apartment though with parking and close to a lot of restaurants.

Great hotel in Befordview!

The hotel was comfortable and the staff were very friendly. However, the heating system didn't seem to be working very well. The hotel is closeby lots of restaurants and shops, which makes the location very convenient. Unfortunately, guests have to pay extra for in-room wifi.

The location/access from airport was good. the staff all very pleasant but the room unfortunately was a bit cramped - plenty cupboard space but the sleeping area could be better.corridor room and roman blind not working so a battle to get natural ventilation. I was there on business with other people and some complained of very noicey room(facing a main road) no spare toilet roll in the room and no tissues either. Tv screen not clear and remote not working. intercom to the reception also not working

The first room I was given did not meet my expectations, but the staff and management were great, and I was moved as soon as another room became available- they bent over backwards to make sure I was happy. Will definitely use this centrally located hotel again.

Overall, it's fine. The beds are too soft and the air conditioner keeps turning itself off randomly, making for uncomfortable sleeping conditions. It also needs better blackout drapes, as you are up with the sunrise. The complimentary breakfast is good, with good services. It should offer free WiFi in the rooms. The staff was friendly and provided good service.

Disappointed ....

Not happy. Checkin was at the coffee shop and the key was not programmed, had to come down again to get the key programmed. The crockery was all odd and many of the coffee cups were cracked and chipped. The curtain in the main bedroom was hanging off one of the middle hooks and so the light came in through the night. Breakfast was not good value at all, R60 for the smallest breakfast I have ever had and served in Polystyrene boxes....... it is room service not take out!!!! Not a single dish towel of washing liquid in the kitchen.
