About the Property

Inside Africa's Tallest Building, 234 Metres Above Sandton

The Leonardo hotel occupies suites within The Leonardo, a 234-metre, 55-storey mixed-use tower at 75 Maude Street in Sandown, Sandton, which the property's own site describes as South Africa's tallest building.

The Leonardo Spa rounds out the wellness offering.
