Beautifully located and short distance to my appointments. Warm welcome by Hendrick and the team. I had a problem with room access after checkin , the team swiftly moved me to a senior room because the door mechanism wouldn't be fixed right away. Would like more options for vegetarian meals. Warm and friendly staff throughout . Innocent is the best waiter. Every evening when I arrived from work, he made it his priority to take my dinner order so my food would arrive quicker . Thank you for your dedication and service Innocent .

I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to all the staff at The Capital Empire for making my stay truly exceptional. Traveling alone on business in Johannesburg for two weeks could have felt lonely, but each morning and evening, the team greeted me by name and remembered my order without fail. Their warm hospitality made me feel at home, as if I were among friends. They brought laughter and smiles to my days, turning my trip to South Africa into an unforgettable experience. A big thank you to Gugulethu, Michelle, Innocent, Sthembiso, Sibusiso, Tsholo, and Roitani – you all went above and beyond to make me feel at home, and I really appreciate it! I hope to see you all again!
