The Southern Sun is situated just 500 meters from O.R. Tambo, Johannesburg's International Airport. An international style hotel, it has a number of well appointed rooms with air-conditioning, TV, minibar and en suite bathrooms.
Whilst not a hotel we would recommend for a prolonged stay it is ideal if you just have to spend a night in Johannesburg prior to catching a flight home.
