Best rooms
Request a room on floors 5 through 8, facing away from the main road. These upper floors benefit from less street rumble and better city skyline views.
Request rooms on higher floors (4th-6th) to minimize street noise from Benmore Road. These floors are likely to be quieter due to the hotel's design and the distance from the road.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on floors 1 and 2 near the lift lobby and any rooms facing the street at the front of the building, as Johannesburg traffic noise can be persistent.
Rooms on lower floors (1st-3rd) may experience more noise from traffic and potential street activity.
Wi-Fi
Free standard Wi-Fi (up to 10 Mbps) for 2 devices per room; premium tier (50 Mbps, unlimited devices) for ZAR 95 per day. Login via room number and surname, no timeouts.
Free fibre-optic WiFi throughout the hotel, login required using room key
