Delight in the Pivot
Breakfast was a sensational and Gastronomic Experience. What a beautiful spread of both the continental and English Fry Up! The French Toast and Danishes were particularly lovely ❤️
The warmth, friendliness and energy of all staff from Reception to the Waitresses, Hostesses and Chefs were commendable and certainly enhanced my Stay. The Pivot Hotel, Montecasino will always remain a delightful accommodation option for me.

I use the Pivot all the time when I visit Jhb. The service is aleays good. The rooms needs upgrading as it really still the old style hotel rooms. The TVs are not smart so this makes it even more old school....

The hotel is located within the Montecasino complex, and therefore is safe to walk around within the complex. There is also a small shopping centre with a supermarket nearby within walking distance. Any further than that would with private hire, which is readily available.
The hotel has good spacious rooms which are cleaned daily also with fresh bottled water. The breakfast buffet is good with reasonable choice of hot and cold items as well as mad to order egg and omelettes.
Service is friendly and very attentive which made it feel at the upper end of 4 stars
