Our take
I would pick Sunnyside Park when character matters as much as convenience: the 1895 building gives the stay a distinct feel, while the gym, outdoor pool and free parking cover the basics. It is not beside Soccer City Stadium, so plan your match-day transfer; the public transport stop three minutes away also connects to the airport. A guest score of 8.4 across more than 2,000 reviews is reassuring.
- Utilise the public transport stop just a 3-minute walk away for easy access to Soccer City Stadium and other city attractions.
- Take advantage of the free parking if you're driving, as it simplifies logistics on match days.
- Head to the Irish pub for a relaxed drink before or after the game, it’s a good spot to soak in the atmosphere.

Why guests love itFor a family heading to Soccer City Stadium, I like that this Holiday Inn pairs an 1895 building with practical extras: an outdoor pool for downtime between outings, a gym, an airy restaurant and free parking if you are driving. Public transport is a three-minute walk away, with links to the city and the airport. The Irish pub suits grown-ups meeting friends before kick-off, and a score of 8.4 from over 2,000 reviews backs the choice.
