Hotels in Braamfontein

Clean and super spacious suite room. Welcoming staff rooftop pool and gyme a bit eerily quiet

Generally very impressed -- I only give 5 stars for hotels that blow me away in their price category. This one is simply very good value for money. - Spotless - Huge rooms - very large living room / desk area, and sizeable bedroom - Staff was very helpful, although I didn't need them much to be honest: I arrived very late (early the morning after my reserved arrival time) and they did hold the room for me; and left luggage for my last day, after checkout, was easy - Balcony - I think most rooms have one? - Top floors and the top-floor bar & pool have great views - Very reasonably priced - Just a few blocks from Wits, Constitution Hill and the Constitution Court / Old Fort, and Park station on Gautrain - Decent internet (not perfect, limited to 600 MB/day which may not be enough if you're streaming video, but adequate for my needs) - Some of the finishes in the room were a bit faded or strange - not top-quality (but this isn't a luxury hotel) - Would be nice to have a digital clock by the bedside, and 1-2 free outlets for charging phones, etc. - I had a nice little fridge, sink and many cupboards -- all empty except for a small coffee-maker and a few small spoons. If you have a little kitchenette like this, please include dishes & utensils... otherwise, not clear why to have the cupboards at all. - Not the hotel's fault, but: Braamfontein is not terribly lively after dark on weeknights. I didn't feel unsafe at all, but do be generally aware of those around you -- but don't be paranoid, it's largely known to be a safe student neighborhood. Also, didn't eat at the restaurant due to concerns raised by others (and so that I got out to see a bit more of the area).
