ce fut un merveilleux séjour riche en rencontres culturelles et humaines

Nous avons aimé l'accueil du personnel toujours à l'écoute pour de précieux conseils la situation a proximité des transports en commun

dans la baignoire ou dans la douche Je pense qu'une douche flexible serait plus pratique quand on ne veut pas se mouiller les cheveux pour ne citer que cet aspect

Great one night in Johannesburg

It was overall a great stay at the Reef hotel. I was only here from 11am saterday, until 7am sunday, so 1 night. -The partner with a company for airport shuttles. It was (950 Rand) for round trip airport transfer. Check in was easy, but i was early at 11am, so paid 350 Rand for early check in. Noticed lots of workers like to dance, a guy from restaurant, and lady from door desk both dancing to themselves, happy. -Room was good, big, good views. Fridge, and many outlets to charge things. I did accidentally test their outlet safety system and got a shock when plugging in my adaptor to outlet, but it was my own fault, and all outlets were out. One call to reception and they sent the mechanic up to look, and switched it back on. TV works with 1 English channel i could find. Big bath tub and shower. Safe in the room, big closet and drawers, and 2 desks. -The hotel takes up one whole block, and has a restaurant below (i never went there), and a bar on the roof (i went to the entrance of it, but was underdressed so didnt enter (they have a sign saying dress code), no one was at the entrance though. there is 4 elevators, but at least 1 was not working. 2 staircases, one in building by elevators, and one on the side of the building away from elevators. Nice views from side stairs. -Location is great, 20 min drive from/to airport if not rush hour. 2 blocks from ghandi square, with lots of food options. It was a good location for pickup for my soweto tour, i was last picked up and first dropped off. I was out at night and it felt safe for me. beer/weed store next door

Then negatives would be (and im a bit picky): -The shower mat/wooden floor thing blocked the drain while i was in there, i guess the way i was standing? i couldnt see the drain, but i could see the shower filling up with water like a bath tub, then shifted the mat and it started draining. -no airport shuttle for free.

It was alright, more can be improved though. Staff was pleasant and friendly.

Breakfast was alright but even though I feel that it can have more versatility and more options. Bed was comfortable and the room was neat and clean .

The fact that the room doesn't not have a bar fridge to make the stay much more comfortable and flexible. Also that you dont have shower mets and that is hazardous and dangerous for guests to slip and fall and injure themselves.

A NEAT HOTEL WITH A GOOD RESTAURANT

The room was well spaced. We had (paid) dinner, and (free) breakfast at the Hotel restaurant. Both were excellent. The staff and chefs took effort to meet our Vegetarian needs. We used the hotel for an overnight stay only to catch the mid-morning flight. So cannot comment on other matters, including location.

Auto switch of lights in the washroom is a bit annoying. The room is not properly sound proofed. We stayed in the 7th floor, and we could still hear street noise from people shouting/fighting (on Sunday night) and refrigeration trucks (on Monday morning) Added note: No response to messages that I had sent through booking.com for airport shuttle. The property were unaware of my messages. I thought I read about 'free airport shuttle' for the hotel (I may be wrong). But, not responding to my repeated messages were disappointing, moreso as we were travelling from Kruger to Johanesburg, and did not have any connectivity to call Uber/taxi. Left us high and dry.

Very comfortable stay in the city centre

Very good and friendly staff, very spacious and luxurious room, big bathroom with bathtub, good water pressure, no loadshedding/good generator. Nice restaurant.

I was on the top floor and the generator was on the roof, so I heard it when it went on and it made quite a bit of noise. But hey, better than no electricity ;-)
