Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Sandton Sun And Towers provides direct access to the Sandton City mall from the 6th or 10th floor, making it easy to enjoy shopping and dining. Many guests appreciated the large, comfortable beds and spacious, well-equipped rooms, some including great bathtubs. While the hotel mostly delivers an exceptional experience, a few guests have noted that the air conditioning wasn't always working properly. The plentiful breakfast options, featuring both buffet and à la carte choices, also stand out as a popular highlight.

excellent experience!

great locationbreakfast varietyattentive staffcarport building
the location is unbeatable! the breakfast had so much variety and every staff member was very helpful, it reminded me of a five star experience (i really loved how attentive everyone was!). i appreciated the warm welcome and quick check in process.
i paid extra for a room with a view, however, my room looked straight into a busy carport building, so i had to keep the blinds closed the whole time.

The location allowed EASE of access to the mall. Breakfast included a good choice of menu items. The coffee was also good. I found the rooms to be spacious and clean.
Check in took OVER 45 minutes. The room was not ready. The air conditioning was not working, and it took two hours for someone to come. I found the shower leaked and flooded the passage.

mixed experience due to noise and service inconsistencies

noisy generator
A very noisy generator ran during a power outage one night and the windows were not soundproofed. i did not sleep well as a result. the breakfast service was also poor. My meal had ingredients that i specifically requested to be omitted. the staff addressed the issue with apologies but it still impacted my experience.
