"I haven’t been to all parts of South Africa but, I think this is the most beautiful hotel in this country. Everything was perfect. Oh, and I got upgraded from executive suite to the Penthouse. Everything about this hotel is wonderful. The staff, the breakfast, the drinks. Everything was amazing. This would be my hotel anytime I am in Johannesburg. I hope there are more branches in every city. "

"We recently visited Johannesburg for the first time and stayed at the Home Suite Rosebank. What an absolutely lovely experience! The rooms were spacious and very comfortable. The staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. They served a wonderful free breakfast in the mornings with made to order selections included. The location was great and within walking distance of several major attractions. We highly recommend this small but wonderful hotel and would definitely book it again on a return visit. Thank you to everyone at Hime Suite Rosebank for making our first visit to Johannesburg so enjoyable. "
