The staff is super attentive and on point. Restaurant is really good. Again, nice staff there too. It’s really secure and perfect for having an overlay at joburg.

Southern Sun O.R Tambo
For the price per night, this hotel has very outdated rooms...Not very pleasing to the eyes. The bed slept well though but the dark brown furniture and finishes as well as the paint on the walls, are very dated.
