My stay at the Sunnyside Park Hotel left me feeling underwhelmed. The location is fairly convenient for access to the Johannesburg CBD, and the conference facilities were adequate with good home-cooked food. However, the hotel is badly in need of a revamp. The room was old, with several maintenance issues that simply should not have been overlooked. Overall, it was not a pleasant experience and left much to be desired.
