Even when staying at a hotel a quarter of the price, parking is free. And yet you have to pay for parking at the African Pride.
Also, the rooms are not sound proof. You will also have to endure two hours of noise as house keeping cleans and talks in rooms around you.
You can get a breakfast pack, but coffee is not included like it would have been if you went to the breakfast area in the morning.

Very nice place to stay. It would be good if they could look into moving the current smoking area. It is very close to the outdoor dining patio and smoke blows to that ate while you are eating. A few area are in need of refurbish. I really love the location.m, and the very warm welcoming staff.

This was the best hotel I stayed at in South Africa. Also, the best customer service out of any of my stays in South Africa.

It is a very nice hotel, however there was a major incident bringing my review down. There is frequent knocks on the door (not unique to this hotel - I experienced this also elsewhere in Southern African hotels), but this time, as I ignored the knocking while in the bath - they opened my door. I had the other bolt lock on, thankfully, but this was truly mortifying.

A beautiful hotel that is so colorful and artsy—we loved it! The only negative is the bathroom. It just had a curtain to pull for privacy for the tub and sinks, which was strange and inconvenient when your spouse gets up in the middle of the night and doesn’t want to wake you. The bathroom also had a one foot gap in the wall, allowing any one who was standing at the door to the hallway to look in. Why do so many hotel bathrooms not have complete privacy with normal doors from the bedroom? Other than the bathroom issue the hotel is fabulous, the staff friendly and helpful, and the location safe and so fun with restaurants and shops just steps from the hotel.

It just keeps getting better and better - like a fine wine. Well done! I love the renovations and upgrades, and big hugs to all - Have an amazing Xmas, and I wish you all the very best for 2024! ❤️

Safety is of prime concern in South Africa, and African Pride is in an island of security in Melrose Arch along with a group of stores, a mall, and many restaurants. An easy drive to Rosebank Sunday Market and the Apartheid Museum. An hour to Maropeng and Prretoria. Highly recommend!

5.0 / 5.0
I enjoyed the hotel very much, it was lovely inside and out. I especially enjoyed walking through the hotel doors and finding such a wonderful night life. There were many places to eat, and a live screen TV on the square made it fun to watch the soccer tournament in wide lounge chairs. Walking around the area was very entertaining as there were many sculptures and storefronts to check out. I would stay there again!

The staff at this hotel are wonderful. Before I stayed, I requested an airport transfer and they delivered. Check in was welcoming and efficient as was check out. The location of this hotel is great. It is in a safe area with restaurants surrounding and the Melrose Arch shopping centre a short walk away. Rooms are large, quirky and lovely. The only criticism is that the grout in the shower cubical was mouldy and the hot water took forever to appear. Rooms could possibly do with a deep clean and a little more maintenance but I recommend this hotel for its welcoming staff, quirkiness and location.

This trip was my 1st solo experience and I must say I had an amazing time. Mr. Dingaan made sure my trip went smoothly and took the extra mile to ensure I had the most amazing experience. Mr. Dingaan was an absolute delight and I'm very thankful our path encounter. He was the highlight of my trip. I can't thank him enough. Also, all the other hotel staff I encounter was very kind in helpful. From Ms. Pretty at the Front Desk, The waitress Tanya, and many more names I cant recall. I hope to visit again one day soon. I will refer this hotel to my friends and family who plans to visit South Africa in the near future.

This is still my favorite hotel to stay at in Johannesburg. I have been staying there since it opened multiple times per year. The staff is amazing. Service excellent. Rooms very comfortable. I do notice, however, that the hotel is in need of a little update, as it is showing a little wear. However, I already have my next reservation in.

Staff are always friendly, courteous and helpful. I would like to point out specific staff, but they are all incredibly professional. Sinethemba at the front desk and Jabulani in the waitstaff/restaurants were especially outstanding.

We checked in, went to our room and checked out. The room was ugly and dirty. They are still trying to charge us for that night. We moved to the other Marriott Melrose Arch up the street. It was excellent.

It’s a nice hotel but I lost interest when I fell getting into the pool(no railing) and busted my knee open and they could not get to the 1st aid kit. Why would they put it in a locked box and not have the key
