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.”

A perfect stay, our experience was truly beyond words. An absolute must if you’re visiting Joburg
We loved everything about 54 on Bath hotel. It truly feels like a five-star property in the heart of Johannesburg, if not, it’s easily a six-star experience. We stayed from Thursday, 30 October 2025, to Saturday, 1 November 2025, to celebrate my partner’s special 64th birthday. As soon as we booked and mentioned the occasion on Booking.com, the hotel replied directly to acknowledge it and assured us they would make our stay memorable, which was already very impressive. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly greeted by every staff member, and we were even upgraded to a suite. This was an incredible surprise and made our stay beyond exceptional. Management should be very proud of all staff at the 54 on Bath. Thank you so much to everyone, from the bottom of our hearts. You were all amazing and truly made our celebration unforgettable. We’ve already shared our wonderful experience with family and friends back in Sydney, and we absolutely cannot wait to return. Next time, we’ll be staying for at least two weeks. We highly reccomend this hotel to everyone if you come to Joburg. Ian and James
We absolutely loved 54 on Bath, and all the staff were incredibly friendly and polite. The only downside was that we didn’t get to stay long enough!

Very limited basic breakfast, not worth eating at the hotel.

Peaceful and beautiful stay
The quiet atmosphere, pretty gardens and amazing and friendly staff. I wasn't well and the staff made sure I felt ok.
No big deal but aircon in first room was noisy. They kindly moved us to another room

Fabulous
The staff were amazing, very helpful and always full of smiles. The hotel is conveniently close to the mall, and we really enjoyed the valet service.
The bathroom shower was very small, and it was inconvenient that the gym wasn’t in the building. Other than that, we had a good stay.

The best choice or a short stay. Comfortable with lovely staff.
Location was excellent. We only stayed for one night so walking through the shopping mall to get to the Hop on Hop off was so very convenient. The hotel connects directly to the mall which we used during our stay.

Throughout a great stay, will come back.
The hotel simply exceeded in expectations for it's level of comfort for both the room and the hotel facilities. It's location is great, together with the corridor from the hotel straight into the Rosebank mall. Great choice and quality of breakfast. Stunning terrace, it's views and last but not least friendliness of it's staff throughout. (The pics on Booking gave an overal different impression, at least to me).

Warm Boutique hotel
Lovely Hotel with the best staff being concierge followed by reception
The restaurant menu can be improved to match the hotel. We love the breakfast menu - it can be expanded a little more. We love 54 and have made it our home every time we are in Gauteng. My family booked 4 rooms. I was getting married, and so 6 more family members also booked at 54 - but apart from rose petals on the bed - not even a bottle of bubbly or something to celebrate us. I think the hotel could have done better.

5star
The ambience of the place was extremely good. Staff 10/10 rooms excellent.
That we had to order breakfast of a menu I always like a buffet style. That I had to pay R75 just to use there parking I believe that should have been free to guests living in.

Central location in comfortable, modern hotel
Located in the heart of Rosebank, this hotel was very central to walk to the mall and the many wonderful nearby restaurants such as Marble and Proud Mary. We thought this area was convenient and safe for our brief stay in Jo'burg, and we parked our car downstairs in the private garage. Well-appointed and comfortable rooms, with an excellent breakfast of made to order items.

Great stay in a good location.
The location is very central, easy access to shops, restaurants and catching Ubers. The breakfast was good and had a great selection of foods.
I found the room very dimly lit and found it quite dark. I struggled to phone reception as the buttons did not work on the phone and the notice on the desk was faded. I did't expect to pay for parking.

Not much to complain about, although the rooms were rather small. Especially for that price point

Great hotel with excellent breakfast, modern design, and a welcoming atmosphere — just a few small i
The breakfast, location, and rooms were excellent, and the hotel as a whole was impressive. I really loved the modern furniture and color scheme, as well as the beautiful lighting in the bathroom. The overall design feels stylish and welcoming.
The room lighting was a bit too dim, and it would have been nice to have more variety or adjustable options. The mirror was placed too high, making it difficult to use comfortably.

Room was large and comfortable. Breakfast was good- not just a buffet- one could order separate dishes. Staff were very friendly and helpful
Perhaps more coffee pods would have been nice.

Surprising to find such a stylish, food-forward venue in the heart of Johannesburg
Very stylish hotel with a surprising French flair to the decor. In the heart of Rosebank which seems to be the posh expat/embassy quarters of Jo'burg. Room was large and comfortable, good bathroom with great lighting. Very nice garden and good restaurant upstairs with cool bar -- overlooks a lap pool but we didn't have time for a swim. We did have a very nice dinner however and the staff was great.
Hotel is adjacent or somehow connected to a vast mall, which is handy, but the way back to the hotel is hidden and confusing. Nonetheless, mall access would be convenient for some.

One of the best places to live in Johannesburg
Everything from the staff to the service was top notch! I loved the little personal touches of leaving notes in my room and how the staff was always so accommodating with with any request! The breakfast was absolutely delicious and what a great way to start the day! I will definitely stay here again when I’m back in Johannesburg

Bathrooms were amazing. The garden was gorgeous, breakfast was sublime and the lobby was very friendly and welcoming
ZERO FAULTS!!

I would definitely stay here again, and recommend to others. The location is ideal near the shops etc. Just perfect.
Great location. Good restaurant. Very convenient. The rooms were lovely, and the staff were too.
The lifts are old and a little slow, and there didn’t seem to be a stairwell we could use as an alternative (just the fire stairs).
