Beautiful Hotel with excellent service!

The staff at this hotel was great. My room was very nice as well and the lobby and business center area were also very nice. Great gym as well. Only disappointment was the pool was under construction.

Traveler's tip on dining

This hotel was extremely conveniently located as there were so many great restaurants to choose from and a great shopping mall - all attached to the hotel!

2 star hotel, no more

Air conditioner didn’t work for 2 days in a row, internet, not working. Shower, broke! Blankets (no duvet!) and pillows: bad and old. Localization: perfect. This hotel must have been beautifull and good 20 yrs ago, but they didn’t take care of it. A real waste of money.

Was a Wonderful Experience -- Luxury After a Safari!!!

This hotel is rated in the World’s Leading Hotels list and rightly so! It is a magnificent, beautiful and comfortable hotel smack in the middle of Sandton City, the new Johannesburg, South Africa. The physical beauty was just overwhelming, and my room overlooked Nelson Mandela Square with its lovely outdoor cafes and large, inviting patio. With regard to the service I couldn’t have asked for more...having just come off a great safari and feeling a bit grubby, walking into this room with all the amenities and comforts was like a respite from heaven before continuing on with the journey...breakfast was included and it offered such variety and the staff was so courteous and welcoming that I’m beginning to sound like an ad for the place...or an employee! It is directly adjacent to the Sandton Mall, so you can spend an entire day there shopping until you drop and then enjoying all the nearby restaurants without having to venture far away in an area that is known for not being as safe as it could be. I would recommend the Michelangelo to everyone!!!

Traveler's tip on local attractions

For great deals go to the Sandton Mall. Because of the exchange rate for American dollars you can pick up such treasures for such a little amount. Shop ’till you Drop!!
