City living<br />
City charm, exquisite wines and a superb date night spoil up for grabs<br />
Compiled by: MEGAN BRETT<br />
Once a bank built back in the 1970s<br />
and now an eco-friendly architectural<br />
gem that welcomes urban living, Voco<br />
The Bank Johannesburg Rosebank is<br />
more than just a tall, New York inspired<br />
face-brick building in the heart of<br />
Rosebank offering accommodation. It’s<br />
the perfect choice for city living where<br />
walk-work-play is made possible.<br />
Check-in begins with valet parking<br />
and the sweet whiff of freshly baked<br />
goods from Proud Coffee. The playful<br />
mix of vintage and modern finishes,<br />
calming colour pallet and quirky<br />
touches throughout the hotel wink to<br />
your fun side.<br />
Serious about sustainability, they are<br />
fully committed to recycling and<br />
have solar panels and generate gas<br />
for energy.<br />
The corridor walls and rooms are<br />
filled with more than 700 pieces of<br />
artwork by more than 40 local artists.<br />
So much art for visitors to enjoy that<br />
there’s an in-house art butler who<br />
can be booked for a tour.<br />
Bedrooms are symbolic to a night owl<br />
(tranquil and serene, well-groomed<br />
and encouraging of time alone) ...<br />
with floor-to-ceiling windows to let in<br />
plenty of natural light and show off<br />
the stunning cityscape views. To add<br />
to the comfort of your stay, a spacious<br />
bathroom with rain shower and allnatural<br />
Antipodes bathroom amenities.<br />
Nice additions … mini bar, work<br />
desk, coffee pod machine, hand-held<br />
clothes steamer and small magnifying<br />
mirror as well as a make-up face towel<br />
in the bathroom. And some humour<br />
... a checklist of things not to forget<br />
before leaving the hotel including your<br />
keys, chargers and kids! The inter-active<br />
TV is your navigation guide helping<br />
you spread your wings during your<br />
stay. Our highlight ... the birds-eye view<br />
while taking a bath and soaking up the<br />
buzzing night life from floor 10.<br />
