Stayed
here
three
times
in
the
past
month.
Overnights
in
transit
through
OR
Tambo.
Chose
it
because
it
was
close
to
the
airport
with
free
shuttle
service
and
is
a
Marriott.
Enjoyed
the
hotel
each
time.
The
style
is
aviation
industrial
so
if
you
don't
like
polished
concrete
floors
this
is
not
for
you.
But
it
is
immaculately
clean
and
the
styling
is
actually
quite
attractive.
The
rooms
are
beautifully
laid
out
with
wonderful
showers
and
comfortable
beds.
Very
very
clean.
The
dining
room
restaurant
has
live
music
on
several
nights
each
week
and
it
is
a
very
energetic
place
with
the
bar
as
well.
The
food
is
good
and
they
were
gracious
enough
to
allow
us
to
have
a
later
checkout
at
noon
without
charge.
You
can
also
pay
them
an
extra
$30
to
extend
your
stay
until
5:00
p.m.
if
you
have
a
late
flight
overseas.
That's
nice
to
know.
The
only
downside
is
that
while
I
could
literally
SEE
the
hotel
from
the
window
of
my
departing
jet,
to
get
there
from
the
airport
is
a
10-minute
shuttle
ride.
And
the
shuttles
don't
come
to
the
airport
but
once
every
half
hour
or
so.
Sometimes
standing
at
the
shuttle
stop
behind
the
intercontinental
hotel
can
be
a
little
unnerving
especially
for
a
single
woman.
It's
dark
and
the
walk
over
there
across
the
street
from
the
terminal
exit
about
100
yd
has
a
long
dark
passageway.
So
while
the
hotel
can't
change
its
location,
I'd
suggest
they
lobby
to
get
brighter
lights
installed
along
that
walkway
which
my
wife
found
a
little
scary
when
she
did
it
alone.
And
obviously
the
walkway
is
populated
by
many
people
calling
themselves
porters
who
force
themselves
on
you
unless
you
are
firm.
And
perhaps
a
posted
schedule
of
the
arrival
times
would
help
because
one
never
knows
if
you
just
missed
one
or
if
there's
one
about
to
come.
Other
hotels
have
posted
schedules
so
the
proteas
should
do
this.
All
in
all
I
would
go
back,
but
I
will
certainly
check
the
prices
of
the
intercontinental
which
is
dramatically
more
convenient.
The
city
Lodge
is
also
much
much
closer,
but
I
understand
their
rooms
are
very
spartan.
