Mercure Johannesburg Randburg Hotel

You stay at the Mercure Johannesburg Randburg Hotel across from Ferndale-on-Republic mall, a short drive from Sandton. The hotel has one hundred and four air-conditioned rooms, each with free Wi-Fi and a television. The outdoor pool sits beside the parking lot, which is free for guests.

The hotel is a ten-minute drive from Randpark Golf Club, a three-course course with a clubhouse and greens. Lanseria Airport is a half-hour drive away; Sandton, Johannesburg’s financial hub, is fifteen minutes by car. Across the road, Ferndale-on-Republic mall has shops and restaurants, and the hotel serves breakfast daily.

The hotel has two meeting rooms for business events, each seating up to twenty people. The bar pours drinks until half past ten at night, and the restaurant serves lunch and dinner until nine thirty. The lobby has sofas and a television tuned to local channels.

The mall across the road is the reason the hotel is here at all — the building went up to serve shoppers and commuters, and the rooms follow the mall’s lead.
