#3 of 9 hotels in Sandton by Axel's take. Sandton is #2 of 10 places to stay in Johannesburg. The best hotels in Sandton, ranked · Where to stay in Johannesburg
Axel's take: 8.7/10
Generous suites and skyline views make this a strong Sandton base, despite uneven service. a modern five-star apartment hotel in central Sandton, scored for what it is.
The Leonardo is a five-star apartment hotel under Legacy Hotels & Resorts, with proper kitchens, generous living space and skyline views. It’s a strong pick for travelers who want room to spread out without giving up hotel facilities. Recent Expedia and Tripadvisor guests repeatedly praise the spacious, clean suites and convenient Sandton location. The pool, gym, spa and restaurants give it more substance than an apartment-only stay.
The weaker link is consistency rather than comfort. Plenty of guests praise the staff, but breakfast delays and uneven problem handling recur across reviews; those lapses matter at this level. We’d choose it for business trips, longer stays and families wanting separate bedrooms. We’d skip it if seamless, highly attentive luxury service matters more than space and views.
