Southern Sun O.R Tambo

Southern Sun O.R Tambo

8/10 Good
"The rooms were clean but a bit worn, with the essential amenitites (but no hairdryer, for example). The location is excellent with every 15 minute shuttle to and from load / unload areas of the airport, which is a 5 minute ride. The restaurant offers a buffet dinner (and individual dinners as well), which was quite adequate for an overnight stay. Others sommented that th room service was well done, but we did not try it. Staff was helpful and pleasant."

"The room was a basic motel style room and a little dated, but clean and comfortable. The restaurant has good food options. A suggested improvement would be to close the doors to the pool outside dining area to prevent cigarette/vape fumes in the restaurant. We had a safe and comfortable stay and recommend this hotel."
