    location advantage
    sticky hairdryer
    noisy bathroom

    proximity to Melrose Arch, big lounge kitchen open plan, serenity of the place

    The hairdryer in the room was sticky and utterly gross!!! Bathroom window placement lets too much noise in from the passage!!! Closet door hinges could use a change for a softer closing to avoid those annoying bangs!!!

    friendly staff
    well-equipped apartment
    interconnecting doors
    privacy concerns

    The Capital Melrose stood out with its friendly staff and well-equipped apartment, perfect for a couple's getaway. The gym met my expectations, and having a shopping mall right in front added convenience, although the interconnecting doors in standard rooms could be a concern for those needing privacy.

    spacious family room
    great location
    lack of child-friendly facilities

    The location is perfect for exploring everything from Melrose Arch to Wanderers Stadium, all within walking distance. The full kitchen made it easy for our family, and my kids appreciated the pool area to unwind. A truly spacious place for us and our two teenagers.

    My kids wished for more child-friendly facilities like bathtubs.

    great stay but minor improvements needed

    The staff was exceptionally warm and welcoming during our entire stay, making us feel at home. I appreciated the convenience of the shopping mall right across the street, providing various options just a short walk away. Our one-bedroom apartment was very well equipped, creating a comfortable atmosphere for our visit. the city view from our apartment was simply stunning, adding a lovely backdrop to our stay.

    The air conditioning unit had a slight unpleasant odor that could use some attention.

    Great Amenities and Convenient Location

    I was really impressed with the rooms, which were always fresh and neat, and the location was super convenient, just a stone's throw from Melrose Arch. The intercommunicating doors in the family room layout made things so much easier for us. the air conditioning unit had a bit of a mouldy smell that could use some attention.

    unpleasant odor
    bathroom layout
    air conditioning issue

    The staff was exceptionally welcoming and attentive, creating a warm atmosphere from the moment of arrival. The inter-leading room configuration was perfect for my family, providing both privacy and convenience. While we enjoyed delicious room service, particularly the ribs and wings, the bathroom layout could be improved to enhance overall comfort. the air conditioning unit emitted an unpleasant odor, which needs addressing.

    It was just a decent option for a swift visit in Johannesburg with good value considering the price it charged. I appreciated the welcoming and friendly staff who were helpful during my stay. Try to avoid rooms near the laundry for a quieter experience.
