Good Hotel, Service could be Improved

We stayed at the O.R Tambo InterContinental Johannesburg twice on our honeymoon; once on our way to a Private Game Reserve Safari and again on our way back. The first night was perfect; staff were accommodating, rooms were clean, check in was easy, it was incredibly close to the airport (70m from the front door) and they even went out of their way to put some champagne, petite four chocolates and rose petals in the room - despite being quite expensive we were very pleased and would definitely stay again. Unfortunately our second night didnt run as smoothly but by no means was bad; check in took a while becuase the room wasnt quite ready, a security bond of $1000rand was taken from our credit card by accident TWICE and almost a week later still hasnt been returned, breakfast service was poor (for example: we waited 10+ minutes for tomato sauce, waiters lack attentiveness) and porter service was slow (waited 25 minutes for a porter that never showed up). Overall, my wife and I would recommend this hotel to family and friends; we would just hope to see the service and experience of the first night repeated - as opposed to the second night we stayed.
