Stayed here a number of time. Good business hotel well located and rooms to a good standard. Was in the towers this time and although the walk to the sun deck is long (no really nice outside space in the towers) I found the room and the breakfast was a much better standard. The Sunderland service as always leaves a hell of a lot to be desired I suggest ordering your next drink on the delivery of your first. Organised chaos is how I tend to describe it and it never seems to improve even though there seems to be multiple staff.

We decided to treat our little one to a stay in the hotel for her birthday. Room was lovely but when it came to bedtime, as we were just above the pool area, there was a party with excessive loud music on a loop. We had our TV on, windows closed and a white noise machine on and yet we could still hear the bass of the music downstairs. Hubby then phoned down to reception to report to the duty manager. He suprised to hear the attitude of said man. He told us to wait till 10 then they would turn it off. Thoroughly disappointed. Will not see us again and we will let others know too.

We chose the Sandton Sun primarily for safety. The hotel is attached to an excellent mall which also connects to Nelson Mandela square which has a number of good restaurants. There are a large number of security guards in these areas, some of them armed to maintain your safety. Our room was spacious and comfortable, though decor was a little bland. Breakfast options were very good. The restaurant and pool area are all very stylish. Staff were all very competent. It feels like a big corporate hotel in a big city and a little soulless. In any other city this would have been a 4 star review but it was chosen for safety and it delivered.

Truly amazing restaurant in fancy Sandton. The rooftop seating area is great, nice selection of wines, tasty dishes, especially steak. The only downside was the latter in my case: it could have been served warmer than it did though, I think this is almost unacceptable for such restaurant. The staff was very nice and got me a quick wine tasting before actually choosing which bottle I wanted. Apart from that little flaw about the steak, the place is definitely worth a visit if you are in Joburg. The whole "complex" is a fancy shopping center with top end shops and stunning interiors.

Amazing hotel. Service is excellent. Staff are very friendly & helpful. It would be nice to add on a Halaal section for breakfast that does not come at an additional fee of R400 p.p. as we are already paying for breakfast when we book the accommodation. Easy access to the mall. Secure parking.

I spent a week at the Sandton Sun Hotel for a wedding. It was a lovely hotel with such impeccable service across the board. I had no issues during my stay here at the Sandton Sun. You can access the Sandton Mall via floor level 6 of the hotel without having to go outside of the hotel building externally. They have a spa place which is up the escalator from the lobby. Unfortunately due to a busy schedule I was unable to use this facility. The rooms were well cleaned and provided enough toiletries each day. They provided two bottles of water when housecleaning team came around. They also provided one extra bottle and a chocolate in the evening when they do bed adjustment in preparation for bed time. A wide range of breakfast selection which is included in the package. Breakfast is served from 07:00-10:30. My stay at the Sandton Sun was such a delight that I felt safe at all times and staffs were all friendly with great customer service skills. I highly recommend this hotel and I would stay here again.

Superb central location connecting to a mall and the central square . Though sometimes inconsistent, overall great service by the staff. The on-site restaurant is fabulous with the level of food I have rarely seen in a hotel restaurant - it's top quality, competing with other top notch restaurants in the locality. The hotel rooms are a bit dated, need refurbishment and that takes away one star out of my review. I've stayed here during my business trip and I went back with my family, and if I'm in Johannesberg I woudn't possibly consider another hotel.
