54 on Bath Hotel, Johannesburg
Expert reviews
“Best described as ‘urban chic’, this sexy number is a short amble from Rosebank’s shopping malls. The 75 rooms are spacious and elegantly restrained, and the uber-cool 4th-floor garden terrace and pool deck is a great place to decompress.”
“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 popular champagne bar does draw locals. It’s also in the center of Rosebank and linked to the nearby mall and African Crafts Market by a second-floor sky bridge.”
“54 on Bath is a luxury hotel in Rosebank offering a tranquil atmosphere amid the bustle of a growing business district.”

The hotel is beautiful, and located in a very nice area of Johannesburg. The room was very comfortable. The breakfast was amazing. We had dinner both as dine-in and as room service and it never disappointed.

Fabulous
Comfortable room, excellent amenities, food was above average and hotel convenient location adjoining the mall.
No shade for the pool loungers so it's full sun or nothing.

Comfort, elegance, luxury!
The decor from when I entered inside the mall struck me, so beautiful. Luxury and beauty. The extra special touch when we came back to our room the evening- a sweet treat and coldrink Spacious bathroom and divine bed, had a fantastic night’s rest. Staff all very friendly. Excellent location, absolutely enjoyed it!
The lighting in the room is a bit dark

Memorable 10year anniversary stay
We were celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary and the staff were very attentive. Beautiful view over the jacarandas. Excellent service during Restuarant week at level four Restuarant.
Breakfast service was extremely slow. We eventually had to ask someone to take our order. We would not recommend this for people in a hurry, especially those on business.

Great place to stay in Rosebank area. Lovely room, fantastic breakfast and service.
Fantastic breakfast included with room. Cook to order items along with a fantastic layout of self serve items. The hotel has it's own private connection to the mall on the second floor which was a nice and safe way to get there. We also enjoyed a dinner at the restaurant and food/service was excellent. Super Spacious, comfortable room with a few little included treats that were a nice bonus. All of the staff was super friendly and helpful. I would stay there again!

Great staff, excellent breakfast (buffet/a la cart dining room or free in-room deliver), and well maintained facilities in a very convenient location (shopping, restaurants, gym, etc).
Restocking of coffee pods could be improved (was given pods that didnt fit the machine in my room). Minibar wasn't stocked until my last night (of a 5 night stay). Chocolate restocking was forgotten on more than more occasion. 2-pin plugs by the bed would be appreciated at a hotel of this standard. In-house phone lines dont seem to work properly.

Always love staying here. A very special stay. We did notice ,however, that the breakfast service was not as it usually
Love the location. Staff are incredible. Very special people and so welcoming and remember me from Previous visits which is so appreciated.
I feel sad that they are changing the champagne bar. I felt that was quite unique.

Beautiful hotel, lovely staff and safe neighbourhood.
Located in a safe neighborhood. Rosebank is one of the safest suburb in Joburg. The hotel has an internal 'bridge' to the Mall which is very convenient and safe. It is a beautiful boutique hotel that provides personal service from check-in process to their breakfast service. I really enjoyed staying in this hotel..
Service in Level 4 dining could be improved with consistent service. We experience few hits and misses during our fine dining experience there.

Wish all our stays were like this
Have to say this was one of those really rare pleasant stays. Fantastic staff, really good restaurant. The breakfast was outstanding. Not sure why their eggs and bacon were better than anywhere else we have stayed but it was. Beds very comfortable with amazing pillows. Great location. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.
Just your average city view. Not the hotels fault.

Superb and unforgettable service, I can highly recommend it!
Very professional and friendly staff that helped me to make my stay super comfortable. They did everything to help me get accommodated such as organising a special taxi to take a quick sightseeing tour around the city.
The pool was closed and I wasn't informed about this prior to booking it. My main reason to pick this property was because of the pool views.

Very good all round....could stay again when back in town.
I believe my wife sent a response but not heard back from the hotel. I accidently forgot to take my 2 dress shirts from the cupboard and didn't realize this until days latter. Though I resolved myself to not seeing these shirts again and I take that as my fault 100% for forgetting them in the first place but to also not follow up with the hotel to retrieve them. My circumstances meant it to be difficult to return to the hotel so I didn't follow up but I was unsure as to why the hotel hadn't contacted us to notify the shirts were left behind. Maybe I have not left them at your hotel, who knows!
