The Crowne Plaza is a member of the InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) and situated in the trendy Rosebank neighborhood. Closest to both Sandton City and Rosebank Malls, as well as the Sandton Convention Centre makes this a convenient location.
I fell in love with this hotel during an overnighter in Johannesburg, South Africa because of:
- Free WIFI
- 24 hour gym
- Spacious, minimalistic, chic rooms
- Ample dining options with two restaurants, one cafe and a bar
Butcher Block Grill
This restaurant serves lunch from 12 – 3pm and dinner from 6 to 10.30pm. As you can tell from the name, the specialty at this restaurant is steak.
Crowne Cafe
Open from 7am – 12 pm for Breakfast, brunch and lunch
Fresh Restaurant
Breakfast is served here daily from 6.30am to 10.30am.
I’m no morning person, so I was most appreciative when the waitstaff let me stumble in for breakfast around 11am. A lovely continental breakfast is included with your room rate. Choose from fresh fruit, healthy cereals or even a hearty omelette.
Circle Bar
Circle bar with its other-worldly cylindrical tear drop enclosed seating. Guests will feel as if they are seated inside a waterfall.
This bar is open from 12pm – 12 am.
Conference Space
Crowne Plaza has 6 meeting rooms, largest room capacity accommodates 300 guests.
IHG Rewards Club

Amani Spa
“Amani” is the word for ‘peace’ in Swahili and is perfectly apt for this spa.
This tranquil spa has 7 chakra coloured inspired treatment rooms, a relaxing pool and is the perfect spot to wind down after a busy work day.

Thank You Crowne Plaza Hotel for the generous invitation. Special thanks to Amani Spa for the full body massage.
Those treatment pools look amazing. I would love to visit.
You really should go treat yourself Devon, they ARE amazing! YOU will feel so rejuvenated after!
Wow awesome pictures! I’ve noted it down for future use, thank you!
You’re so welcome! you’ll enjoy it if you’re ever in Johannesburg 🙂
Those pictures are really beautiful. Makes the place look so tempting.
Thanks so much Penny! It is a lovely property!
A very well structured review and the spa looks fab. It’s so important to like your hotel in Joberg as you probably spend more time there than in other cities
Thank you so much! I thoroughly enjoyed my time there. yes and no to your second statement as there is so much to do in Johannesburg I’ll doubt you’ll spend too much time at your hotel, unless you’re on a bleisure trip 😉
Oooh looks super lush! So many activities in one place haha
For sure a hidden city oasis, the spa is the best!
Its worth the visit
It definitely is!
This hotel looks lovely! I’m pretty impressed they let you stumble in after breakfast hours. I don’t think they let you in many hotels. Or they wouldn’t be friendly for sure! 😀
Their customer service is really something to write home about. I also couldn’t believe how accommodating they were….loved it!
I was here twice for meetings – it’s really beautiful especially the crystal showers seating 🙂
stunning stunning stunning I love it!
This is so weird because we stayed at the Rosebank a few months ago too! I loved their breakfast because there were too many food to choose from! My only problem is the location itself but still. Everything was great whilst I was there 🙂

Ah weird or pleasantly surprising? Its not quite in the heart of Sandton, but I find the trendy Rosebank suburb is near enough to uber around. Glad you enjoyed it!
