Awesome view and service

The service was impeccable. The staff greeted me by name before even providing my booking. Throughout the stay staff were friendly and helpful. The views are gorgeous .Slight improvement could be made such as placing the curtain on the opposite side to maximise the view and having a square toilet seat on a square toilet. Would recommend.

Not usual standard of a Radisson.

The photos of this hotel make it look far better than in person to be honest! There were signs in the lift advising of 'soft refurbishment' being undertaken which would have been helpful to know upon making the reservation. Not what we expect from the Radisson brand. The photo shown of the bar area is not what we saw - there was a make-shift bar in the corner and a large area with no furniture in so we can only assume that they had ripped out the main bar as part of the refurb. It was very odd and looked a bit abandoned/empty so not a comfortable or relaxing environment to spend an evening in.

Great views but a stain on the Raddison brand. Very tired rooms and the restaurant is a disaster. Had bug in bed in first room. Tepid food had to be returned in Tabu. Could only offer vanilla ice cream and Brown sauce "out of stock". Laughing stock more like. Pleasant front desk staff though.

Jordaan's making the rounds

We booked top of the range suite. Room was nice and spacious. The room felt like it was empty, all the caboards in the kitchenette was empty, not a glass, bowl, cup or spoon. The bedroom door was broken and could not close. I had to put a pillow infront of the door as my husband was still working in the living room. Only one bathrobe in the room. Water was brown and was hard to believe you can bath in it. Window was broken and could not proper close. Bath tab water pressure was so slow the water got cold as you waiting for the bath the fill up.
