The staff were extremely welcoming, the room was spacious and the direct access to the mall was a welcome suprise. The gym was well equiped and the rooftop bar/restaurant was incredible.
Stay was very comfortable, staff are very friendly and helpful, views over Johannesburg amazing and convenience of being connected to shopping center with some shops amazing and small but comfortable and lovley pool area.
It was a great hotel and just being in the motherland was a great experience. I love everything about it. Hotel rooms, breakfast in the Lucé restaurant was excellent.
Property is connected to the mall, so everything is right there. Rooms are small but efficient, my room was located directly over the music area, so it was a bit challenging late in the evening. Staff was great!!!
A short two nights stay at the Southern Sun Hotel in central Cape Town at the end of our cruise. Had to wait a long time to be taken to our room so we left our luggage in the hotel store and went to the seafront until late afternoon which was very nice. Had a nice snack in the evening in the lovely hotel bar. Didn’t get much chance to use the pool as it was evening time and quite dark. Would love to visit this hotel again in the future.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
What i liked was the mall that was attached, the pool area with the DJ,the staff was amazing, they were very professional.
What i did not like was the lighting in the room is HORRIBLE! I also dont like carpet on the floor
The staff here went above and beyond whether it be reception, bar staff, house keeping or room service. Really nice hotel with good facilities and such friendly welcoming staff.
I totally enjoyed my stay, the staff were very friendly and helpful...the room was very clean, nice and comfortable...I felt like I was at home away from home. The cost to stay at the hotel was very competitive also, and of course I like the location as it's in a very safe neighborhood
Breakfast Buffet is amazing. We had a view of a construction zone which was unpleasant.

Hotel is fine just needs a bit more attention to cleanliness. Gym was not stocked with water and needs tidy more regularly. Location is very convenient.
