Holiday Inn Johannesburg Airport by IHG

8/10 Good

"Great staff. They made suggestions around trip to make things easier for me which I really appreciated. The room was clean. "

Radisson Hotel and Convention Centre OR Tambo Airport

2/10 Terrible

"Unfortunately, my stay was disappointing due to several maintenance and service issues. The bathroom sink was clogged, and I couldn’t even brush my teeth without the water backing up, which was extremely unpleasant. The shower head was also not functioning properly, making it difficult to have a proper shower. Additionally, I ordered wings as a snack, and they were quite poor in quality—definitely not what I expected. Overall, these issues significantly affected my experience. I hope the hotel addresses these concerns to improve future guest stays. "

Southern Sun O.R Tambo

8/10 Good

"Very nice hotel, close to the airport, convenient shuttle service, employees are very friendly and helpful. My only criticism is the rooms are not set up for travelers from North America. Not a single USB port to charge electronics in the room. Unless you have international travel adaptors, you are pretty much toast. "
