Gauteng
Gauteng is where the creative spirit of a nation converges in a dense, cultural heartland. It is the intersection of African and global trade - incorporating Johannesburg, Pretoria and Soweto. Gauteng is a cosmopolitan, multicultural mix of people from all walks of life, from all corners of the world.
DE HOEK COUNTRY HOUSE
De Hoek Country House, which nestles in a serene bend of the Magalies River is set in a beautiful garden which blends into a hundred acres of indigenous riverine bush and woodland. Less than an hours' drive from Johannesburg and Pretoria, the stone house has superbly appointed bedrooms, each with views of the tranquil gardens. Enjoy leisurely walks along the Magalies River, ramble along the mountain trail, and relax in the garden or at the saltwater pool
THE MICHAELANGELO
Magnificently set in the heart of Sandton Square, the entertainment and corporate capital of Africa, the elegant Michelangelo Hotel offers service and quality only available in the finest hotels around the world. Its luxurious rooms and suites offer comfort and convenience and have been tastefully decorated to reflect the elegant renaissance style that has been carried throughout the rest of the hotel. For an elegant dining experience, The Piccolo Mondo Restaurant is the ideal venue in which to entertain friends and colleagues in a relaxed and gracious environment. The Michelangelo is within walking distance of a variety of restaurants, shops and boutiques, as well as cinemas and a theatre.
THE WESTCLIFF
The Westcliff is an Orient-Express hotel located in the select, historic northern suburbs of Johannesburg. The hotel is laid out as a Mediterranean hillside village which cascades in a series of "villas" set in landscaped gardens overflowing with flowers, laid out around fountains, and charming cobbled paths that follow the contours of the slope.
Lavishly appointed and decorated, the hotel offers guests extravagantly sized bedrooms and suites, most with private, sunny balconies with glorious views. The restaurants are superb, and, in keeping with the style of the Westcliff, specialize in northern Mediterranean cuisine faultlessly prepared, presented and served. Afternoon teas and drinks are served in the Polo Lounge Bar and Terrace - wing chairs, linen loose covers, a club fender around the fire, and the Polo memorabilia all contribute to a soothing ambience that is as attractive to Johannesburg's social set as it is to the guests. Ideally placed for both sports and shopping, the hotel offers a complimentary shuttle to the excellent shopping districts of Sandton, Hyde Park and Rosebank.
