Fodor's Expert Review 54 on Bath

54 Bath Ave., Johannesburg, Gauteng, 2196, South Africa

Most of the visitors to 54 on Bath are international business travelers and foreign tourists drawn to the modern yet intimate elegance behind the towering brick facade and Doric columns, though the Champagne bar is popular with locals. It's also in the center of Rosebank and linked to the nearby mall and Rosebank Art and Craft Market by a second-floor sky bridge. The upmarket restaurant, Level Four, has established itself as one of Johannesburg's culinary centers. Travelers rave about the breakfast and dinner (an à la carte menu including dishes like rib-eye steak, duck, and salmon). One of the hotel's finest features is the rooftop garden and pool area, which has sweeping views of the northern suburbs' greenery.

PROS

  • high-speed Wi-Fi for guests throughout the hotel
  • direct access to malls via sky bridge
  • friendly staff

CONS

  • construction in the area can be noisy
  • not on airport shuttle route, although the hotel will arrange transport for a fee
