The Michelangelo on Mandela Square

One doesn’t get to be a member of "The Leading Hotels of the World" without being something quite special, and The Michelangelo on Mandela Square is nothing if not a prime example of world-class accommodation. From your first step through the open atrium, the feeling of grandeur and decadence is absolutely overwhelming.

The Michelangelo could not be better positioned to explore stylish and sophisticated Sandton. It's close to an array of restaurants and bars, and souvenir shopping will be made easy at Sandton City, one of Africa's most high-end shopping centres. The business district is close by, with Sandton Convention Centre right next door. Johannesburg is your oyster from this brilliantly located hotel.

The Renaissance-style architecture echoes throughout the rooms and suites. Each has a private bathroom with separate shower and toilet as well as air-conditioning. More discerning travellers may choose the Presidential Suites, which provides the pinnacle of five-star service: a private butler.
