Mint Hotel Rosebank
Staff extremely courteous & went the extra mile for me especially in the face of my husband suffering a heart attack and unfortunately dying. They were professional, caring and kind to me and my family during this very traumatic & unexpected family tragedy.

Radisson RED Hotel, Johannesburg Rosebank
Nice clean room and bathroom. Only a couple of small issues. Hair dryer usage was woeful. Cord not long enough to be able to be used near a mirror, lighting in bathroom wasn’t great and air con was hard to control. Bed was comfortable
