“The hotel's direct access to Sandton City Mall is a real advantage, effectively eliminating transportation hassles. I found the emphasis on upscale luxury, from the décor to the whiskey and cigar lounge, created a distinct atmosphere. However, some reports mention inconsistent service, which could detract from the overall experience.”
