Some history:

“The smaller 22-story rear tower was built in 1970 as The Tollman Towers hotel, owned by the prominent hotelier Stanley Tollman.

The property was purchased by Sol Kerzner\'s Southern Sun Hotels in the early 1980s and totally rebuilt at a cost of R100 million, with the addition of the 40-story main tower, linked to the older building by a four-story podium with a pool deck and a running track. The complex re-opened in 1985 as the 672-room Johannesburg Sun and Towers.

As the neighborhood decayed, the luxury hotel was converted to a Holiday Inn Garden Court, with only 270 rooms remaining in use, but the lack of demand for hotels in the CBD eventually caused the hotel to close completely, in September 1998. It remains abandoned to this vintage used condition. Some wear to fob. See photos for details.
