Full accommodation information

The hotel opened fully to guests in January 2015 after 18 months of ambitious renovation work.

Its newly decorated rooms are pleasingly spacious and beautifully appointed, with chic décor that subtly references modern South African style.

Describing itself as a ‘hilltop village’ The Westcliff is comprised of nine low-rise columned buildings set in eight acres of landscaped gardens and located in the highly desirable northern suburbs, the Parks. The hotel’s vantage point offers panoramic views of Johannesburg, especially when viewed from the newly installed exterior glass elevators that allow guests to take in the scenery whilst journeying up to sumptuous new restaurants View and Flames.

Yet another new addition is the luxurious spa complex, built to the rigorous standards of Four Seasons worldwide. Why not sample the signature Red Nomads treatment? Based on the traditions of the ancient Himba tribe it uses quintessentially South African ingredients including rooibos Kalahari melon and coconut oils.
