4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 May 2012 NEW

The rooms are huge, the staff super effective, the breakfast is great, the bed is comfy, the cable selection is excellent, big bathrooms with separate showers and bath. It's up to a Ritz Carlton standard. I just don't like Ritz Carltons that much for their decor and impersonal 5 star service, otherwise I'd rate this one excellent. I would stay... More

The property is a masterpiece just as the name suggests. It is absolutely beautiful in a very nice mall and right on Mandela Square with plenty of restaurant options a few steps away. Nice beautiful rooms with balconies overlooking the square, a cool bar and restaurant area, easy access to the mall and Mandela Square. The food at the restaurant... More

I've stayed here about ten times over the last ten years, and I'd have to say that it's now as good as its ever been. I think the Legacy Staff Training has really worked out for them, and this is truly international standard (it wasn't always that way). This time was for business, however I was with my wife. There's... More

I stayed at Michelangelo hotel beginning of April. I liked the location and the hotel in general, though service in the restaurants and lounge require more attention. On several occasions, I had to attract waiter's attention for service. When food was order, it took generally quite a long time. Housekeeping service were very good, though it was difficult to get...
