There is the Michelangelo Hotel and there is also the Michelango Towers. The towers are more like a Four Seasons...they are apartments that people live in and the others are full apartments rented out as hotel rooms, completely equipped with everything, including all the hotel amenties. I had a one bedroom, 1 1/2 bath apartment. The kitchen was fully equipped, 2 TV's, huge bathroom. There is room service and housekeeping. Irons/boards are not provided, so your things need to be sent out, which is not cheap or convenient. The gym is very, very nice..upstairs with indoor/outdoor pool, spa, etc. The restaurant is very good, with a nice selection on the menu. It is attached to the Sandton Shopping Mall. In a way, good location in that there are restaurants and the mall within easy access. But, it is located in a business, convention center area which is not good for walking around. It is not advised to be out walking around, and there is nothing close by to walk to....its all business, office building area. The restaurants in Nelson Mandela Square are okay, a bit too touristy though. Taxis to go anywhere are pretty expensive, for example, to go to the Apartheid Museum was about $100 roundtrip, and about 25 minutes each way. One night, checking with the concierge, a taxi to Melrose Arch was going to be 250ZAR...going outside and talking to the bellman, it was 120ZAR...huge difference. The staff at the bar and restaurant were very pleasant, however, the desk staff were a bit stuffy.
