I really liked this hotel. Large, good food and comfortable. A special shout out to Martha who really helped is when we faced a problem with transport. The decor is welcoming and I would stay here again. It's not a 5 star review because the air conditioning was relatively ineffective but that was the only gripe.

Last minute booking after a concert in Pretoria, so we expected it to be busy. Staff was helpful. Not a 4 star hotel though. Room smelt like the toilet had a leak. Woke. Up by Taxis started hooting outside at 5am on a Sunday! Breakfast was ok but hotel was very busy

Staff at reception was very friendly and accomodating. The bar is not stocked. No working aircon in the public areas. One coffee machine during breakfast for full breakfast hall. Bathroom is moulding with awful smell. Aircon and Telephone does not work. Took 45 minutes to try order room service after calling twice. Paid for desert that never arrived with meal. Waiter for room service was very friendly. In short if it wasn't for the staff this staff would have been a complete mess.

This property is certainly not at the level of a typical Southern Sun Hotel. The features and fittings are old and both the dinner and breakfast were poor in terms of quality and variety. The noise generated from hooting taxis in the CBD make sleep difficult and the air-conditioning in the rooms was ineffective. Overall, a disappointing and underwhelming first visit to this hotel.

I stayed at the Southern Sun for 2 nights on a business trip. On arrival, the welcome was a bit dull and you are left to figure out where to go by yourself. Check in was smooth and uneventful. Staff at the front desk were OK but could be more friendlier and welcoming. The hotel has a fairly nice lobby though it has limited seating spaces. The room was quite spacious though it was just basic . Most of the things in the room are falling apart e.g. broken light in the bathroom, stained bathroom floors, old furniture etc. The internet in the room was on the slow side. The breakfast was also just basic with limited variety. The restaurant needs some touch ups - it was not the cleanest I have been to and most of the chairs were stained with dirt. Overall, I would say the hotel needs some good tender loving care and upgrading. I recommend the hotel just for short stays.

Friendly staffs, clean rooms, good foods. I stayed for a conference, and conference facility was very good too. Staffs were all friendly. And next day they will remember your name and provide you with tailor made service. Fitness center is clean and tidy.

The place is brilliant, the service and staff are very friendly. However I was in room 322 and I couldn’t get quality sleep due to the endless hooting from vehicles (mostly taxis) outside.The hooting is very frustrating and irritating.
