Sandton Sun & Towers
Spent 4 nights in the hotel, 3 issues faced for a 5star hotel, internet was weak, tv had no Netflix or amazon prime application, they refused to bring a microwave to my suite as well as refused to warm my meals unless it was purchased from their restaurant lol.

ONOMO Hotel Johannesburg Sandton
O hotel é muito bom. Localizado ao lado do Mandela Square (onde tem a estátua do Mandelão). O café da manhã é bastante variado, os atendentes são solícitos e o quarto bastante limpo e agradável.
