Top hotels in Vlakfontein
Hyde Johannesburg Rosebank
The staff was nice and welcoming but the facility looks like it’s in need of some renovation. It’s looking a a bit the worse for wear and inadequate of bad lighting choices in places like the bathrooms makes the place look like a motel.

Southern Sun Rosebank
AC was noisy. No actual windows. Hotel is clean though the breakfast is decent but 54 on bath much much better.
