Everything was fine, but we were in room 133 and below us was the constant rolling and sliding of what sounded like bins, went on until after midnight. Kept waking up with the noise. ##### Victor Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Modesto 3 Aug 2022 Liked: Staff & service, amenities Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities No hot water.

Things were old, chipped,cracked. The staff was super nice, but I just couldn't get comfortable so I left and booked another hotel. ##### Joresa Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Robert 1 Sept 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I booked and paid for a room and when I got there !!! No room ! Expedia is a joke !!!! Never ever use it ##### Robert Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 7 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Decent Place to stay in the heart of Sandton overall, great stay. The staff are amazing and very helpful, willing to go the extra mile to make your stay memorable, that's what I like the more I believe. The room was decent but it could definitely use a little finesse and extra attention. Some of the furniture in the room I was in could use an update. Also, whenever taking a shower, water would go out through the bottom, in the bathroom... I couldn't understand. Breakfast was great, decent with a large selection, I enjoyed it. I would probably go back again, but perhaps choose a different type of room to compare with what I had. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Danielle 2 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel room was quite comfortable. It was very easy to get an Uber or taxi to and from the hotel. There were very nice restaurants nearby and I even found a Pilates class at a hotel nearby along with a spa with a sauna, steam room, nail, and massage services. For massages at the Capital Empire you can ask in advance and they will have someone come to the massage rooms. The in-room a/c worked very well and the wifi was great for personal and business use. I do want to note that the pool is right next to the restaurant and bar, more exposed than what I'm used to, the standard room does not come with a tub (photos are misleading), and while the rooms are soundproof, you can still hear street noise if you're on the side facing the street. The water pressure was fine, but just on the lower side. The food at the hotel was good overall, but the pizza left more to be desired. Also, the gym does not have a treadmill. I did enjoy my stay overall. I chose this hotel because a friend that I was visiting was staying there. ##### Danielle Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Fabrice 14 Apr 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities C'etait un tres bon choix et je reviendrais ##### Fabrice Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Mats 14 Feb 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Nice to be back Trevligt att komma tillbaka till Capital Empire.

However we consistently had problems with water not being hot and the bathrooms have signs of wear and tear. The biggest problem was the noise level. There was a party on one night and church on another. I think it would be great if they warned guests in advance. There was also no concierge when we arrived and had to move our own luggage. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Gabriel 30 Aug 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great staff and super clean, my go to place in Sandton ##### Gabriel Stayed 1 night in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mimi 17 Feb 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Perfect The most amazing stay ever.
