Wonderful staff

Radisson Blu Arboretum is truely exceptional all due to the employees. The hotel is built concave with a beautiful green pool to match. Its a very quite hotel with super security due to it being near the Presidents house. Breakfast buffet was fantastic. Same resturant you were able to get a meal anytime thru the day. Coffee shop was great also & a good working spot. NO was not in their vocabulary. A special thank you to Patrick & Evans our drivers, John that worked the lobby, and Angela our barrista. Every mornings breakfast was extra special due to Florence egg chef & Satino. This hotel is truely a gem & one of the top hotels Ive ever stayed . Rooms & linens were very nice.All employees continuously have smiles. They truely want to make you happy & serve you. We were sad to leave. Thank you all

I stayed at the Radisson Blu Hotel for one week and had an excellent experience. The staff were warm, professional, and always ready to assist. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained throughout my stay. I particularly enjoyed the variety and quality of the breakfast buffet as well as the relaxing atmosphere around the pool. The hotel’s central location made it convenient for both business and leisure. Overall, it was a pleasant and memorable stay, and I would gladly return.

Convenient Location

This is a very typical business hotel. We stayed there for our trip to Johannesburg because it was just opposite the Gautrain Sandton Station which made access to the airport very easy. There were also many restaurants nearby.
