Recent Westcliff Review: "This was our first visit to Johannesburg and I was a little bit wary of what we would find. I couldn't have felt more secure and comfortable in this hotel. The service was impeccable, and the staff were friendly and good natured. The views are fantastic, a carpet of greens and purples stretches out as far as the eye can see. I was told we might see  elephants at the zoo from the restaurant terrace and hear lions roaring or elephants trumpeting, but we didn't, unfortunately. The restaurant serves delicious food and whilst you could get less expensive food, the whole experience makes the cost immaterial. We used room service a few times, and presentation was always top notch, although you do have to remember you are in Africa and everything is on African time! I did visit the gymn, but found it disappointing. There were several cardio machines, lots of free weights and fit balls, but ony one weights machine and no-one in attendance to show you how to use that properly. Walking around the hotel grounds is probably exercise enough for most people, although there are frequent buggies to cart you and your luggage wherever you need to go. At the end of our stay we extended our check out by 5 hours at no extra cost and absolutely no problem. We will definitely be going back there on our next visit to Johannesburg."
