IC Johannesburg Sandton


Were you (or for multi-stayers are you generally) happy with the hotel/stay?
Yes

Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?
Booked cheapest, got executive room (whatever that means) on top floor with club access

How are the rooms?
Well kept, relatively spacious

How is the exec. lounge?
A bit weird. Two balconies off the hallway and the reception desk in the hallway in front of the elevators.
Offerings at happy hour was ok, service was very friendly. Compared to my last visit around one year ago they seem to have cut back the offerings.
Only a few cookies for afternoon tea is disappointing.


Did you receive a welcome gift?
Yes, a box with some sweets, a bottle of red, 3 fruits

How was the minibar?
average for an IC

What was good and what was bad?

-Good
- location next to a big shopping mall with restaurants etc

-Bad
- lounge offerings could be better
- breakfast offerings and quality below average IC standards

Value for $ or Priority Club Points?
a bit expensive for what they offer

Would you return?
depends
