The five-star Michelangelo hotel in Johannesburg, South Africa, is to add 190 luxury suites to its existing amenities when the 33-storey Michelangelo Towers opens in July.

Facilities at the 135m-high, R750m (£67m, $126m, E96m) extension include a private gym as well as indoor and outdoor pools.

Brian Davidson, spokesperson for Legacy Hotels & Reorts, which operates the site, said: “We weren’t able to accommodate the huge demand for luxury suites at The Michelangelo so the additional suites at the Towers will solve our problem.”
