Great hotel, let down by pettiness over parking

Won't stay again as they insist on charging a paltry amount for car parking despite having paid premium rates for a premium and otherwise good hotel. Staff blame anyone but the hotel. Pity.

Close proximity to most malls in Sandton

My family had a wonderful experience at Radisson Blu Sandton. They provide a shuttle to Sandton City mall every 30 minutes which we utilised fully. I'd definitely recommend this hotel.

Access to three story gym with pool

The best part about this hotel is access to a (third party) three story gym with pool and 250m indoor running track (on the 9th floor...). It's also easily accessible from the airport (JNB). Just take the train, and walk a block. There is a second Radisson Blu right next to the train station, don't mix them up.

Nice hotel.

Hotel is within walking distance to train and mall. Hotel also runs shuttle to train and mall every 30 minutes. They even gave us complimentary water every day. We arrived a few hours before check-in but they were able to accommodate us within 30 minutes.

Clean and convenient hotel

We had a great time at the gym which was amazing... 3 stories of state of the art gym equipment, classes and indoor heated pool. The shuttle to 3 km around the area is also very convenient

Convenient with a great breakfast menu

Gym is great! All new equipment. Front desk staff is super helpful. Housekeeping staff is sloppy and will try to rush you out... knocking and asking when you are checking out before checkout time, maintenance staff not fixing things speedily, etc.

I was disappointed with the cleanliness of my room! Every thing else was great. I am a regular at the Radisson Blu worldwide and it is the first time I see such a low level in terms of cleanliness.

A nice hotel for business travelers and others. The shuttle service to the nearby shopping mall and Gautrain station is excellent.

There was a dirty towel in the bathtub upon check in and both phones in my king suite were not able to get through using the one touch service despite many multiple calls late at night to request for a wake up call. I then ended up waking up late for a meeting the next day since there wasn't a socket to charge my phone in the bedroom. I would have expected more from this hotel.

Great staff, but not a perfect room or hotel

The customer service staff (team) at the reception area desk were absolutely fantastic. Impressive staff! I felt very secure as the security team were always present at the front entrance.On September 14, 2016, the hotel turned off the water in rooms WITHOUT notice to guests. I was unable to bathe in any manner or use the toilet facilities.The towels in bathroom were really dingy. A new laundry vendor is needed. The safe in room was in a state of disrepair. It was fixed, but then it failed to work after the repair. I had to call 3 times before anyone showed up to fix the safe. There was stench coming from the drain in bathroom shower. This was caused by standing water somewhere in drain. There was a hole in duvet cover on bed. The throw pillows on bed need a good cleaning.

A nice hotel in a nice central environment. Very good restaurant, service and the most fantastic gym I ever saw. Only problem I had was that I wanted to pay in cash - and despite reminding the person at check-out he used my credit card.......

Radisson Blu - Sandton

I expected better from the Radisson considering it was a 5 star hotel. The bedding had a stain on the sheet as well as a stain on one of the towels in the bathroom. We invited some of our friends for a drink at the bar and when the cocktails was brought to us, we had rotten olives and the rooibos tea already had sweetener in it. We also noticed that there was no organisation with the shuttle service. We had made it clear to reception that we would be using the shuttle and was informed that they would be leaving with the next 20 minutes. When the shuttle opened the doors, four other guests pushed in front of us leaving us to take the two remaining spaces. If there has been one more guest we would have been left waiting for another half an hour
