"Chillout in the Library Bar Sit down in the comfy leather couches and read up on the local news while you sip on a perfect whisky or hustle up a game of pool and sink a cold beer while keeping your cool, either way you'll love the Library Bar at the Melrose Arch hotel for it's classy, old school opulence and it's cosy atmosphere. Hot Summer evenings can be enjoyed on the verandah with cocktails and friends while cooler evenings can be spent cosying up on the couches at the fire side with a hot cup of cocoa. A well thought out bar food menu, is also available if you're feeling a little hungry."

"It’s a sad fact that many swaths of Johannesburg aren’t exactly walkable, but that’s not the case at Melrose Arch, a trendy complex filled with some of the city’s hottest restaurants, galleries, and shops. Guests are in the heart of the action if they book a stay at the African Pride Melrose Arch Hotel, a slick property with 118 stylish, contemporary rooms adorned with modern African art. And now that the hotel falls under the Marriott family umbrella, guests can expect all sorts of perks and upgrades associated with the brand."

African Pride Melrose Arch (Johannesburg, South Africa) Verified Reviews | Tablet Hotels

"Melrose Arch is the name of one of Johannesburg’s newly hip districts, a planned and gated community right smack in the middle of the city — an oddity, perhaps, to those of us used to a less orderly sort of gentrification, but actually rather sensible, given the degree of disorder in Johannesburg’s recent history." - Tablet Hotels

Wow the staff here go above & beyond! Front desk and concierge were so happy to see Californians (not a usual response! 😂) and we felt so welcomed. They also asked if we were celebrating anything and made sure to decorate our room and leave a handwritten message for us! ||Breakfast & amenities were great, and if you have an early excursion, be sure to let the front desk know the night before and they’ll have a boxed breakfast ready for you. ||Can ensure that your comfort & safety is prioritized here, and we loved our stay. Recommend to all who are visiting Johannesburg and would stay there again!

A fantastic 6 star hotel. Customer service is at its highest level. Most staff great you as you pass by or checks on you to make sure you are having a great time. Very friendly and helpful staff throughout. It is nicely located in a safe and upmarket area: Melrose Arch with great access to a variety of restaurants and bars. Access to the hop-on, hop-off bus stop is also within a 2 min walk. Our room was spacious with all the amenities you would expect at that level. Couldn't praise this hotel enough.

Do not hesitate in booking your stay at this impeccable hotel. My experience was nothing short of amazing. The hotel is located in a beautiful and safe neighborhood. The rooms were big, very clean, and comfortable. The food was delicious, and the complimentary breakfast exceeded my expectations. What made my stay here extra special was the staff and the genuine ways they made connections with me and other hotel guests. They went above and beyond to ensure my time at The African Pride Melrose Arch was perfect.

From the moment I parked my car, I was warmly welcomed by Ntando and Prince, what a beautiful start to my stay.||Check-in with Nomonde was quick and seamless. Her warm spirit truly stood out, and I appreciated her attention to detail in noticing that it was my birthday the next day (18 July 2025).||My room was immaculate, clean, cozy, and incredibly comfortable.||On the morning of my birthday, I was surprised by the breakfast crew singing for me. It was such a heartwarming gesture and a wonderful way to begin my special day.||Later that afternoon, returning to my room, I found a beautiful arrangement laid out on the bed. It made me feel so fuzzy inside and genuinely appreciated.||A special thank you to Dingaane for your consistent warmth and friendly greetings. You always take the time to smile and chat with guests. That personal touch goes a long way.||Overall, your staff is exceptional, friendly, attentive, and kind.||Thank you for making my birthday weekend so memorable.||Warm regards,|Zama Hlekani

Spent one night at the downtown Johannesburg location for our last day after a two week Safari. Front entry way inside the hotel has a definite wow factor. Beautiful all around. Check-in was very easy and quick and front desk staff extremely friendly. Nathaniel was top notch, greeted us with “holy” water and even gave us a quick walk outside to give us the layout of the shops and restaurants surrounding the hotel. Just by chance we mentioned to him that this was also a honeymoon trip for us and would be our last evening in South Africa before flying home. When we entered our room it was littered with rose pedals with a heart shaped rose bed of pedals on the bed. Champagne with glasses and a welcoming note from the staff. Couldn’t have been more surprised and grateful. Had dinner in the evening at one of their fine dining restaurants downstairs. Excellent food, drinks and atmosphere. Again the staff was nothing but amazing. Enjoyed the continental breakfast in the morning and it was more than could be imagined. Absolutely first class. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and highly recommend it. Would love to stay here again when we get a chance to visit Johannesburg again.

I had a wonderful stay at the African Pride Hotel in Melrose Arch. The rooms are absolutely beautiful—definitely not your standard hotel room. Stylish, spacious, and thoughtfully designed.||The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was out of this world—delicious, fresh, and with plenty of variety.||The location is perfect. Melrose Arch is a vibrant and secure area, with great shops, restaurants, and galleries all within walking distance. It felt very safe to walk around and explore.||Highly recommend if you’re looking for comfort, style, and a great location in Johannesburg!

I have stayed at this hotel four times, but my recent visit will certainly be my last. The receptionist and overall customer service were extremely disappointing. I was charged for an additional night simply for checking in at 10 a.m., without any prior notice, and they refused to provide a refund. I only realized the charge when I reviewed my invoice after returning home. A very frustrating and unprofessional experience.

We had an awesome stay at the African Pride Melrose Arch Hotel in Johannesburg! Six other family members and I finished up our four country trip in Johannesburg and all of us were happy we finished up there. The friendliness of the Staff was amazing and very accommodating; they made us feel at home from the very beginning. Dingaan, their Guest Relations Manager helped us out tremendously, he gave us great suggestions of places to visit around the city, transportation tips and nice places to eat and shop. This is the place to stay in Johannesburg!
