Just planning my next SA trip. Having seen most IHG brands disappear following Southern Sun's rebranding, I was interested to note a couple of new hotels.

Has anybody stayed at the recently opened Holiday Inn Soweto?

Also, has anybody booked at the Holiday Inn Express Cape Town City Centre, due to open on 1 March? Trying ihg.com, I get nothing after clicking the 'Check Availability' button.

I had expected the Holiday Inn brand to disappear from SA. Are these operated by Southern Sun or is there a new franchise holder?

Thanks.
